Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
Your radio system has an auxiliary input jack located on
the lower right side of the faceplate. This is not an audio
output; do not plug the headphone set into the front
auxiliary input jack. You can however, connect an
external audio device such as an iPod, laptop computer,
MP3 player, CD player, or cassette tape player, etc. to
the auxiliary input jack for use as another source for audio
listening.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in PARK (P). SeeDefensive Driving

Using an MP3 (Radio with
Six-Disc Player)
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 les that were recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW disc. The les can be recorded with
the following xed bit rates: 32 kbps, 40 kbps, 56 kbps,
64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps, 112 kbps, 128 kbps,
160 kbps, 192 kbps, 224 kbps, 256 kbps, and 320 kbps
or a variable bit rate. Song title, artist name, and album
are available for display by the radio when recorded using
ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA les) and MP3 les.
By default the radio shows the MP3 label on the left side
of the screen but plays both le formats in the order
in which they were recorded to the disc.
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a personal computer:
Make sure the MP3 les are recorded on a CD-R
or CD-RW disc.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3 les on
one disc.
Make sure the CD does not have more than a
maximum of 50 folders, 50 playlists, and 255 les.
Create a folder structure that makes it easy to nd
songs while driving. Organize songs by albums
using one folder for each album. Each folder
or album should contain 18 songs or less.
Avoid subfolders. The system can support up
to 8 subfolders deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum in order to reduce
the complexity and confusion in trying to locate
a particular folder during playback.
Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl extension
(other le extensions might not work).
Minimize the length of the le, folder, or playlist
names. Long le, folder, or playlist names, or a
combination of a large number of les and folders, or
playlists can cause the player to be unable to play up
to the maximum number of les, folders, playlists, or
sessions. If you wish to play a large number of les,
folders, playlists or sessions, minimize the length of
the le, folder, or playlist name. Long names also
take up more space on the display, potentially
getting cut off.
Finalize the audio disc before you burn it. Trying to
add music to an existing disc may cause the disc not
to function in the player.
3-94

Playlists can be changed by using the previous
and next folder buttons, the
f(tune) knob, or the
©SEEK¨arrows. You can also play an MP3 CD-R
or CD-RW that was recorded using no le folders. If
a CD-R or CD-RW contains more than the maximum of
50 folders, 50 playlists, and 255 les, the player lets
you access and navigate up to the maximum, but
all items over the maximum are not accessible.
Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R or CD-RW is treated as a
folder. If the root directory has compressed audio les,
the directory is displayed as the CD label. All les
contained directly under the root directory are accessed
prior to any root directory folders. However, playlists (Px)
are always be accessed before root folders or les.
If a disc contains both uncompressed CD audio (.CDA)
and MP3 les, a folder under the root directory called
CD access all of the CD audio tracks on the disc.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the le
structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no
compressed les directly beneath them, the player
advances to the next folder in the le structure that
contains compressed audio les. The empty folder
does not display.
No Folder
When the CD contains only compressed les, the les
are located under the root folder. The
Sc(previous)
and next
cTfolder functions do not display on a
CD that was recorded without folders or playlists.
When the CD contains only playlists and compressed
audio les, but no folders, all les are located under the
root folder. The folder down and the folder up buttons
search playlists (Px) rst and then go to the root folder.
Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or CD-RW are played in
the following order:
Play begins from the rst track in the rst playlist
and continues sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last track of the last playlist
has played, play continues from the rst track of
the rst playlist.
Play begins from the rst track in the rst folder and
continues sequentially through all tracks in each
folder. When the last track of the last folder has
played, play continues from the rst track of the
rst folder.
When play enters a new folder, the display does not
automatically show the new folder name unless you have
chosen the folder mode as the default display. The new
track name displays.
3-95

File System and Naming
The song name that is displayed is the song name that
is contained in the ID3 tag. If the song name is not
present in the ID3 tag, the radio display is blank
following the track indicator.
Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists that were created by
WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™ software
can be accessed, however, they cannot be edited
using the radio. These playlists are treated as special
folders containing compressed audio song les.
Playing an MP3
Wait for the message to insert a disc, label side up.
The player pulls it in, and the CD-R or CD-RW should
begin playing.
If you turn off the ignition or radio with a CD-R or
CD-RW in the player it stays in the player. When you
turn on the ignition or radio, the CD-R or CD-RW starts
to play where it stopped, if it was the last selected
audio source.
As each new track starts to play, the track number and
song title displays.
ZEJECT:Press this button to eject CD-R(s) or
CD-RW(s). To eject the CD-R or CD-RW that is currently
playing, press and release this button. A beep sounds
and Ejecting Disc displays. Once the disc is ejected,
Remove Disc displays. The CD-R can be removed. If the
CD-R or CD-RW is not removed, after several seconds,
the CD-R or CD-RW automatically pulls back into the
player and begins playing. For multiple discs, press and
hold this button for two seconds to eject all discs.
f(Tune):Turn this knob to select MP3 les on the
CD-R or CD-RW currently playing.
©SEEK¨:Press the left SEEK arrow to go to the
start of the current MP3 le, if more than ten seconds

again to turn off random play.
2. To play songs from all CDs loaded in random order,
press the pushbutton positioned under the RDM
label until Randomize All Discs displays. Press the
same pushbutton again to turn off random play.
h(Music Navigator):Use the music navigator
feature to play MP3 les on the CD-R or CD-RW in order
by artist or album. Press the pushbutton located below
the music navigator label. The player scans the disc to
sort the les by artist and album ID3 tag information. It
can take several minutes to scan the disc depending on
the number of MP3 les recorded to the CD-R or CD-RW.
The radio can begin playing while it is scanning the disc
in the background. When the scan is nished, the CD-R
or CD-RW begins playing again.
Once the disc has been scanned, the player defaults to
playing MP3 les in order by artist. The current artist
playing is shown on the second line of the display
between the arrows. Once all songs by that artist are
played, the player moves to the next artist in alphabetic
order on the CD-R or CD-RW and begin playing MP3 les
by that artist. If you want to listen to MP3 les by another
artist, press the pushbutton located below either arrow
button. You will go to the next or previous artist in
alphabetic order. Continue pressing either button
until the desired artist is displayed.
