Troubleshooting guide:
SymptomCause 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) 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 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 setting 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.

navigation system)
Bluetooth®is a trademark owned
by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and li-
censed to Clarion Co., Ltd.
. Some Bluetooth®audio devices may not be
recognized by the in-vehicle audio system.
. It is necessary to set up the wireless
connection between a compatible Blue-
tooth
®audio device and the in-vehicle
Bluetooth®module before using the Blue-
tooth®audio player.
. Operating procedure of the Bluetooth®
audio player will vary depending on the
device. Make sure it is understood how to
operate an audio device before using it with
this system.
. The Bluetooth
®audio player may be
stopped under the following conditions:
— Receiving a hands-free call.
— Checking the connection to the hands- free phone.
. Do not place a Bluetooth
®audio device in
an area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle Bluetooth
®module to
prevent tone quality degradation and wire-
less connection disruption. .
While an audio device is connected through
a Bluetooth
®wireless connection, the bat-
tery power of the device may discharge
quicker than usual.
. This system supports the Bluetooth
®Audio
Distribution Profile (A2DP, AVRCP).
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth
®
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz) . Using the Bluetooth®and the
wireless LAN functions at the same time may
slow down or disconnect the communica-
tion and cause undesired noise. It is
recommended that you turn off the wireless
