judgement to set the parental control with the
system.
Disc selection :
The following disc formats can be played with
the DVD drive.
● DVD-VIDEO
● DVD-AUDIO
● VIDEO-CD
● CD-DA (Conventional Compact Disc)
● DTS-CD
● DVD-AUDIO may not be playable depending
on the system. USB (Universal Serial Bus) This system supports various USB memory
sticks, USB hard drives and iPod  players.
There are some USB devices which may not be
supported with this system.
● Make sure that the USB device is connected
correctly into the USB connector.
● Do not force the memory stick or USB cable
into the USB connector. This could damage
the connector.
● During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to humidity. If this
occurs, remove the USB device and dehu-
midify or ventilate the USB player com-
pletely.
● The USB player sometimes cannot function
when the passenger compartment tempera-
ture is extremely high. Decrease the tem-
perature before use.
● Do not leave USB memory in a place prone to
static electricity or where the air conditioner
blows directly. The data in the USB memory
may be damaged.
● The vehicle is not equipped with a USB
memory stick. ● A USB device cannot be formatted with this
system. To format a USB device, use a
personal computer.
● Partitioned USB devices may not be played
correctly.
● Some characters used in other languages
(Chinese, Japanese, etc.) are not displayed
properly on the vehicle center screen. Using
English language characters with a USB de-
vice is recommended.
● Do not connect a USB device if a connector
or cable is wet. Allow the cable and/or
connectors to dry completely before con-
necting the USB device. If the connector is
exposed to fluids other than water, evapora-
tive residue may cause a short between the
connector pins.
● Large video podcast files cause slow re-
sponses in an iPod  . The vehicle center
display may momentarily black out, but it
will soon recover.
● If an iPod  automatically selects large video
podcast files while in the shuffle mode, the
vehicle center display may momentarily
black out, but it will soon recover.
● Audiobooks may not play in the same order
as they appear on an iPod  .

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.

Playback order :
● The folder names of folders not containing
compressed audio files are not shown in the
display.
● If there is a file in the top level of a disc/USB,
“Root Folder” is displayed. ● The playback order is the order in which the
files were written by the writing software, so
the files might not play in the desired order.
● Music playback order of compressed audio
files is as illustrated in the next figure.

Troubleshooting guide : Symptom Cause and Countermeasure
Cannot play Check if the disc or USB device was inserted correctly.
Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
Check if there is condensation inside the player, and if there is, wait until the condensation is gone (about 1 hour) be-
fore using the player.
If there is a temperature increase error, the player will play correctly after it returns to the normal temperature.
If there is a mixture of music CD files (CD-DA data) and compressed audio files on a CD, only the music CD files (CD-DA
data) will be played.
Files with extensions other than “.MP3 (.mp3)”, “.WMA (.wma)”, “.AAC (.aac)”, “.M4A (.m4a)”, or “.AA3 (.aa3)” cannot
be played. In addition, the character codes and number of characters for folder names and file names should be in
compliance with the specifications.
Check if the disc or the file is generated in an irregular format. This may occur depending on the variation or the set-
ting of compressed audio writing applications or other text editing applications.
Check if the finalization process, such as session close and disc close, is done for the disc.
Check if the disc or USB device is protected by copyright.
Poor sound quality Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
It takes a relatively long time
before the music starts playing. If there are many folder or file levels on the disc or USB device, some time may be required before the music starts
playing.
Music cuts off or skips The writing software and hardware combination might not match, or the writing speed, writing depth, writing width,
etc., might not match the specifications. Try using the slowest writing speed.
Skipping with high bit rate files Skipping may occur with large quantities of data, such as for high bit rate data.
Move immediately to the next
song when playing. If an unsupported compressed audio file has been given a supported extension like .MP3, or when play is prohibited
by copyright protection, the player will skip to the next song.
The songs do not play back in
the desired order. The playback order is the order in which the files were written by the writing software, so the files might not play in
the desired order.
Random/Shuffle may be active on the audio system or on a USB device.

● DivX  - DivX  refers to the DivX  codec
owned by DivX, Inc. used for a lossy com-
pression of video based on MPEG-4.
● AVI - AVI stands for Audio Video Interleave. It
is a standard file format originated by Mi-
crosoft Corporation. A “.divx” encoded file
can be saved into the “.avi” file format for

section. However, not all the “.avi” files are
playable on this system since different en-
codings can be used than the DivX  codec.

Bluetooth  Audio player (models with
navigation system) ● Some Bluetooth  audio devices may not be
recognized by the in-vehicle audio system.
● It is necessary to set up the wireless connec-
tion between a compatible Bluetooth  audio
device and the in-vehicle Bluetooth  module
before using the Bluetooth  audio player.
● Operating procedure of the Bluetooth  audio
player will vary depending on the device.

on the disc condition due to high-speed
recording.
● Jumping sounds may be recorded when a
compact disc is recorded while driving on
rough roads and excessive vibration occurs.
● A mark indicating jumping sounds is dis-
played if jumping sounds are recorded. ● No sounds may be recorded if jumping
sounds occurs or the disc is in poor condi-
tion.
● Tracks that include Serial Copy Management
System (SCMS) are not recorded.
● If a compact disc is scratched or dirty, it may
not be recorded, jumping sounds may occur
or it may take a long time to record.
Automatic title download :
● The title information that is automatically
downloaded may differ from the actual title.
