●Partitioned USB devices may play
correctly.
● Some characters used in other lan-
guages (Chinese, Japanese, etc.) may
not appear properly in the display. Us-
ing English language characters with a
USB device is recommended.
General notes for USB use:
● The USB device may not function when
the passenger compartment tempera-
ture is extremely high. Lower the tem-
perature before use.
● During cold weather or rainy days, the
player may malfunction due to humid-
ity. If this occurs, remove the USB de-
vice and dehumidify or ventilate the
USB player completely. ●
Do not connect a USB device if a con-
nector, cable or USB port is wet. Allow
the connector, cable, and USB port to
dry completely before connecting the
USB device. (Wait for 24 hours or more
until it is dry.) If the connector and USB
port are exposed to fluids other than
water, evaporative residue may cause a
short circuit between the connector
pins and USB port. In this case, replace
the cable and USB port. Otherwise
damage to the USB device and a loss of
function may occur.
● If the cable is damaged (insulation cut,
connectors cracked, contamination
such as liquids, dust, dirt, etc. in the
connectors) , do not use the cable. Re-
place the cable with a new one.
● Do not put a USB device in a location
where static electricity occurs, electri-
cal noise is generated or hot air from
the air conditioner blows directly on it.
Doing so may cause the data stored on
the USB device to be corrupted.
Notes for iPod use:
iPod is a trademark of Apple Inc., regis-
tered in the U.S. and other countries. ●
Improperly plugging in the iPod may
cause a checkmark to be displayed on
and off (flickering) . Always make sure
that the iPod is connected properly.
● An iPod nano (1st Generation) may
remain in fast forward or rewind mode if
it is connected during a seek operation.
In this case, please manually reset the
iPod.
● An iPod nano (2nd Generation) will
continue to fast-forward or rewind if it
is disconnected during a seek
operation.
● An incorrect song title may appear
when the Play Mode is changed while
using an iPod nano (2nd Generation) .
● Audiobooks may not play in the same
order as they appear on an iPod.
● Large video files cause slow responses
in an iPod. The vehicle center display
may momentarily black out, but will
soon recover.
● If an iPod automatically selects large
video files while in the shuffle mode,
the vehicle center display may momen-
tarily black out, but will soon recover.

Bluetoothstreaming audio (if so
equipped)
● Some Bluetooth audio devices may not be
recognized by the in-vehicle audio system.
● It is necessary to set up the wireless con-
nection between a compatible Bluetooth
audio device and the in-vehicle Bluetooth
module before using the Bluetooth audio.
● Operating procedure of the Bluetooth au-
dio will vary depending on the devices. Make
sure how to operate your audio device be-
fore using it with this system.
● The Bluetooth audio may be stopped under
the following conditions:
● Receiving a call on the Hands-Free
Phone System.
● Checking the connection to the hands-
free phone.
● Do not place the Bluetooth audio device in
an area surrounded by metal or far away from
the in-vehicle Bluetooth module to prevent
tone quality degradation and wireless con-
nection disruption.
● While an audio device is connected through
the Bluetooth wireless connection, the bat-
tery power of the device may discharge
quicker than usual. ●

CD or USB with Compressed Audio
Files (models without Navigation
System)
The file types supported by this system are MP3
and WMA.
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 from CD-ROM can reduce the
file size by approximately a 10:1 ratio with
virtually no perceptible loss in quality. MP3
compression removes the redundant and
irrelevant parts of a sound signal that the
human ear doesn’t hear. ●
WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA)* is a
compressed audio format created by Micro-
soft 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.
● 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
contains information about the digital music
file such as song title, artist, encoding bit
rate, track time duration, etc. ID3 tag infor-
mation is displayed on the Artist/song title
line on the display.

CD, DVD or USB with Compressed
Audio Files (models with Navigation
System)
The file types supported by this system are MP3,
WMA, AAC/M4A and ATRAC3.
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 ap-
proximately 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1 kHz,
Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually no percep-
tible loss in quality. The compression re-
duces certain parts of sound that seem in-
audible to most people.
● WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a
compressed audio format created by Micro-
soft 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.
● ATRAC3, ATRAC3 Plus — Adaptive Trans-
form Acoustic Coding (ATRAC) is a lossy
audio compression format developed by
Sony.
● 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.
