Static and flutter: During signal interference
from buildings, large hills or due to antenna
position, usually in conjunction with increased
distance from the station transmitter, static or
flutter can be heard. This can be reduced by
lowering the treble setting to reduce the treble
response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver at the same
time. The signals may cancel each other, result-
ing in momentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM radio reception :
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics. AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmit-
ter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic
lights.Satellite radio reception :
When the satellite radio (if so equipped) is first
installed or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This is not
a malfunction. Wait more than 10 minutes with
satellite radio ON and the vehicle outside of any
metal or large building for satellite radio to
receive all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode will be skipped unless
an optional satellite receiver and antenna are
installed and an XMT
satellite radio service
subscription is active. Satellite radio is not
available in Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be affected if
cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite
radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the satellite
antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio antenna
can affect satellite radio performance. Remove
the ice to restore satellite radio reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
c Do not force a compact disc into the CD insert
slot. This could damage the CD and/or CD
changer/player.
c Trying to load a CD with the CD door closed
could damage the CD and/or CD changer.

roads.
c The CD player sometimes cannot function
when the passenger compartment tempera-
ture is extremely high. Decrease the tem-
perature before use.
c Only use high quality 4.7 in (12 cm) round
discs that have the ªCOMPACT disc DIGITAL
AUDIOº logo on the disc or packaging.

ing messages will be displayed.
CHECK DISC: ± Confirm that the CD is inserted correctly
(the label side is facing up, etc.).
± Confirm that the CD is not bent or warped
and it is free of scratches.
PUSH EJECT:
This is an error due to the temperature inside
the player is too high. Remove the CD by
pushing the EJECT button, and after a short
time reinsert the CD. The CD can be played
when the temperature of the player returns to
normal.
UNPLAYABLE:
The file is unplayable in this audio system
(only MP3 or WMA CD).CompactFlash (CF) player
c Do not force a CF card into the slot. This could
damage the CF card and/or player.
c During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this
occurs, remove the CF card and dehumidify or
ventilate the player completely.
c The CF player sometimes cannot function
when the passenger compartment tempera-
ture is extremely high. Decrease the tem-
perature before use.
c Do not expose a CF card to direct sunlight.
c Confirm that a CF card is inserted correctly.
iPodT player
cSome characters used in other languages
(Chinese, Japanese, etc.) are not displayed
properly on the vehicle center screen. We rec-
ommend using English language characters
with an iPodT.
c Large video podcast files cause slow re-
sponses in the iPod T. The vehicle center dis-
play may momentarily black out, but it will
soon recover.
c If the iPod Tautomatically selects large video
podcast files while in the shuffle mode, the
vehicle center display may momentarily
black out, but it will soon recover.

cImproperly plugging in the iPod Tmay cause
a checkmark to be displayed on and off (flick-
ering). Always make sure that the iPodT is
connected properly.
c The iPodT nano (2nd Generation) will con-
tinue to fast forward or rewind if it is discon-
nected during a seek operation.
c An incorrect song title may appear when the
Play Mode is changed while using the iPodT
nano (2nd Generation).
c Audiobooks may not play in the same order
as they appear on the iPodT.
c The iPodT nano (1st Generation) may remain
in fast forward or rewind mode if it is con-
nected during a seek operation. In this case,
please manually reset the iPodT.
c If you are using an iPod T(3rd Generation with
Dock connector), do not use very long names
for the song title, album name or artist name
to avoid the iPodT from resetting itself.
c Be careful not to do the following, or the
cable could be damaged and a loss of func-
tion may occur.
± Bend the cable excessively (1.6 in (40 mm)
radius minimum).
± Twist the cable excessively (more than
180 degrees). ±
Pull or drop the cable.
± Close the center console lid on the cable or
connectors.
± Store objects with sharp edges in the stor-
age where the cable is stored.
± Spill liquids on the cable and connectors.
c Do not connect the cable to the iPod Tif the
cable and/or connectors are wet. It may dam-
age the iPodT.
c If the cable and connectors are exposed to
water, allow the cable and/or connectors to
dry completely before connecting the cable
to the iPodT (wait 24 hours for it to dry).
c If the connector is exposed to fluids other
than water, evaporative residue may cause a
short between the connector pins. In this
case, replace the cable, otherwise damage to
the iPodT and a loss of function may occur.
c If the cable is damaged (insulation cut, con-
nectors cracked, contamination such as liq-
uids, dust, dirt, etc. in the connectors), do not
use the cable and contact an INFINITI retailer
to replace the cable with a new one.
c When not in use for extended periods of time,
store the cable in a clean, dust free environ-
ment at room temperature and without direct
sun exposure. c
Do not use the cable for any other purposes
other than its intended use in the vehicle.
c iPodT charging is only possible for devices
that support charging via a FireWire Tconnec-
tion. Devices that can be charged by the iPod

Troubleshooting guide :
SymptomCause and Countermeasure
Cannot play Check if the CD/CF was inserted correctly.
Check if the CD/CF 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)
before 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 MP3/WMA files on a CD, only the music CD files (CD-DA
data) will be played.
Files with extensions other than ª.MP3º, ª.WMAº, ª.mp3º or ª.wmaº 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
setting of MP3/WMA 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 CD/CF is protected by copyright.
Poor sound quality Check if the CD/CF 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 MP3/WMA CD/CF, or if it is a multisession disc, 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. When a non-MP3/WMA file has been given an extension of ª.MP3º, ª.WMAº, ª.mp3º or ª.wmaº, 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.
