Notes on operating audio by Voice Recog-
nition● An audio device connected via Blutooth ®
cannot be operated with the Voice Recogni-
tion system. Source change is only available
for Bluetooth®streaming audio.
● Song title and Artist name information will be
overwritten when another iPod®/iPhone®
is connected after song titles and artists
names in the previously connected
iPod®/iPhone® have been installed. ●
If two USB devices are connected at the
same time, voice operation will only be avail-
able for use with one registered and se-
lected device. When selecting “YES” in the
pop-up screen that displays after a new
USB audio device is connected, the USB
audio device is registered in the Voice Rec-
ognition system and is selected automati-
cally. One iPod® and one USB device can
be registered in the system. If a USB audio
device is newly registered, old data is over-
written. It may take a few moments to regis-
ter an audio device. If you want to enable
voice operation for music stored on a previ-
ously registered audio device, select the de-
vice you want to use in advance. For addi-
tional information, refer to the Voice
Recognition settings in this section. Even when a device has been previously
registered, simply connecting the device will
not result in it being selected automatically.
●
The Voice Recognition system may not
function when the song information is too
long (artist names, album titles, song
titles, and playlists, etc.)
● The SXM function will not operate without
a subscription to SiriusXM Satellite Ra-
dio.

AUDIO SYSTEM
HD Radio Technology
Sound:
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Delay in digital audio on HD Radio broadcasts. The radio acquires an analog station first and blends to a
digital signal. This is not a malfunction.
Audio skip, stutter or echo. The radio station has not properly aligned the digital and
analog audio. Verify correct operation on another station. Report any sta-
tion with poor performance.
Volume changing up/down. The radio station has not properly aligned digital and ana-
log audio level. Verify correct operation on another station and check
www.hdradio.com for stations in the area. Report any sta-
tion with poor performance.
Sound fading in and out. The transition between analog and digital is taking place
(blending) . Verify transition performance on several stations in the
area. Report any station with poor performance.
Excessive blending (Transition between analog and digital) . The receiver is located near the edge of the digital cover- age area. Refer to www.hdradio.com to verify stations in your cover-
age area.
Digital audio not better than analog audio. Audio processing on the digital audio at a station can po-
tentially decrease the digital audio sound quality. Verify correct operation on another station. Report any sta-
tion with poor performance.

Functional:
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Keep losing my local stations. The digital coverage is slightly less than the analog signal
coverage. Verify correct operation on another station. This is ex-
pected behavior.
Shadowing (urban/terrain) can cause reduced digital
coverage. Verify correct operation on another station.
Some data fields are blank. Text information is sent at the broadcaster’s discretion. Verify correct operation on another station. Report any sta-
tion issues.
Text information is truncated / appears to be more
available. The display is limited to a fixed number of characters and
more data is being sent than can be shown. This is intended behavior.
AM reception changes at night. AM stations are required by the government (FCC) to lower
their power at night. This is not a malfunction.
Compact Disc (CD) player
Symptom
Possible cause Possible solution
Music cannot be played back. The disc is inserted upside down. Insert a CD with the label side facing up.
Moisture has accumulated inside the unit. Wait until the moisture evaporates (approximately 1 hour) .
The cabin temperature is too high. Wait until the cabin temperature becomes moderate.
The disc is scratched or dirty. Wipe off any dirt from the disc.
Scratched discs cannot be recovered. Replace the disc.
Depending on the condition in which they are stored, discs
may become unreadable due to deterioration (for example,
keeping the discs in the passenger compartment, etc.) . Replace the disc with a deterioration-free disc. Do not use
a deteriorated disc. The label surface of a disc may crack
or chip, and the layer of the label surface may eventually
peel off.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-149

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Compressed audio files cannot be played back. If both music CD files (CD-DA data) and compressed au-
dio files (MP3 data, etc.) are mixed on one disc, the com-
pressed audio files cannot be played back. Prepare a disc that contains compressed audio files only.
The files are not named using characters that are compliant
with the specifications. Use the character codes and the number of characters that
are compliant with the specifications for the folder names
and file names. In addition, always use “.MP3”, “.WMA”,
“.mp3” or “.wma” file extensions.
It takes a long time before the music starts playing. The disc contains a large amount of data. Some time may be required to check the files. It is recom-
mended that unnecessary folders or any files other than
compressed audio files should not be recorded on a disc.
The sound quality is poor. The disc is dirty. Wipe off any dirt from the disc.
No sounds are played although the CD play time is
displayed. The system is playing the first track of a mix mode disc.
(Mix mode is a format in which data except music is re-
corded on the first track and music data is recorded on one
other than the first track in a session.) Play music data in other tracks.
Music cuts off or skips. The combination of writing software and hardware might
not match; or the writing speed, writing depth, writing
width, etc. might not match the specifications. Create a disc using different writing speed settings, etc.
The system skips the selected track and moves to the next
track. A non-MP3/WMA file has been given an extension of
“.MP3”, “.WMA”, “.mp3” or “.wma”. Prepare MP3/WMA files.
Some of the file cannot be played due to copyright
protection. Prepare playable files.
The tracks do not play back in the desired order. The folder locations on the disc are changed by the writing
software while the files are written on the disc. Check the settings of the writing software and create a
new disc.
