Compressed Audio Files (MP3/WMA/
AAC) Explanation of terms :
● MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures
Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the
most well known compressed digital audio
file format. This format allows for near “CD
quality” sound, but at a fraction of the size
of normal audio files. MP3 conversion of an
audio track can reduce the file size by
approximately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1
kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually no
perceptible loss in quality. The compression
reduces certain parts of sound that seem
inaudible to most people. ● WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a
compressed audio format created by Mi-
crosoft as an alternative to MP3. The WMA
codec offers greater file compression than
the MP3 codec, enabling storage of more
digital audio tracks in the same amount of
space when compared to MP3s at the same
level of quality.
● AAC/M4A — Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is
a lossy audio compression format. Audio
files that have been encoded with AAC are
generally smaller in size and deliver a higher
quality of sound than MP3.
● Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number of
bits per second used by a digital music file.
The size and quality of a compressed digital
audio file is determined by the bit rate used
when encoding the file.
● Sampling frequency — Sampling frequency
is the rate at which the samples of a signal
are converted from analog to digital (A/D
conversion) per second.
● Multisession — Multisession is one of the
methods for writing data to media. Writing
data once to the media is called a single
session, and writing more than once is
called a multisession. ● ID3/WMA Tag — The ID3/WMA tag is the part
of the encoded MP3 or WMA file that con-
tains information about the digital music file
such as song title, artist, album title, encod-
ing bit rate, track time duration, etc. ID3 tag
information is displayed on the
Album/Artist/Track title line on the display.

RECEIVING A CALL When the ring tone is heard, press the button
on the steering wheel.
Once the call has ended, press the button on
the steering wheel.
NOTE:
To reject a call when the ring tone is heard, press
the button on the steering wheel.
DURING A CALL During a call there are several command op-
tions available. Press the button on the
steering wheel to mute the receiving voice and
enter commands.
● “(digits)” — Use the Send command to enter
numbers during a call. For example, if di-
rected to dial an extension by an automated
system:
Speak: “Sending one two three four.”
The system acknowledges the command and
sends the tones associated with the num-
bers. The system then ends the VR session
and returns to the call. ● “Mute on/off” — Use the Mute command to
mute the user’s voice so the other party
cannot hear it.
Use the mute command again to unmute the
user’s voice.
● “Transfer Handset” — Use the Transfer
Handset command to transfer the call from
the Bluetooth  Hands-Free Phone System to
a cellular phone when privacy is desired. The
system announces, “Transfer Handset. The
call is transferred to the handset only.” The
system then ends the VR session.
The Transfer Call command can also be
issued again to return to a hands-free call
through the vehicle.
● “Help” — The system announces the avail-
able commands.
NOTE:
If the other party ends the call or the cellular
phone network connection is lost while the Mute
feature is on, the Mute feature may need to be
reset to “off.” SAA2581
