Due to the large number of audio devices avail‐
able on the market, it cannot be guaranteed
that every device/mobile phone is operable on
the vehicle.
Depending on the configuration of the audio
files, for example bit rates greater than
256 kbit/s or the number of different compres‐
sion technologies, the files may not play back
correctly in each case.

found at www.miniusa.com/bluetooth.

back.

Popular file systems for USB devices are sup‐
ported. FAT32 and exFAT are the recom‐
mended formats.

ter console.

help protect the USB audio port and the USB

cable supplied with the USB device would be
ideal.

stored on the USB device is transferred into the
