Restrictions and notes
Contamination, exposure to high temperatures and mechanical damage canrender a data medium unusable. Please observe the manufacturer's instruc-tions.
Variations in the quality of data media produced by different manufacturersmay lead to problems during playback.
Please observe copyright laws.
CDs recorded in UDF or Direct CD format cannot be played. Under WindowsVista® ensure that the correct format is selected.
The unit may be unable to read individual tracks or the entire data mediumdue to the data medium configuration or the devices and programs used forrecording. Compatibility with all encoding/recording software, recording de-vices and recording media cannot be guaranteed. Incompatible USB devi-ces can make noise, interrupt playback or not playback at all. Informationabout the best ways to create audio files and data media (compressionrate, ID3 tag etc.) can be found on the Internet.
Due to the larger quantity of data, it takes longer to read a data mediumcontaining compressed audio files (MP3, WMA etc.) than a “normal” audioCD. Complex folder structures can also slow down the reading of a data me-dium.
Playlists only determine a certain playing order. There are no files stored ina playlist. The unit will not play a playlist if the files are not stored on thedata medium at the locations referred to by the playlist (relative file paths).

Playing order for audio data CDsFig. 14
Example of anMP3 CD structure.
Audio files  on data media are often sorted by folders  and playlists  todetermine a certain playing order.
Tracks, folders and playlists on a data medium are sorted by name in alpha-betic or numeric order.
Subfolders are treated like folders and numbered in accordance with the se-quence on the CD.
The illustration ⇒ Fig. 14 shows a typical MP3 CD that contains tracks ,folders  and subfolders.
Accordingly, the tracks and folders on this CD are played and displayed inthe following order:

27Audio modeREPEAT Repeat function: Playback is repeated once all the tracks have beenplayed once. In data media with compressed audio files (MP3 and WMA),only folders can be repeated, not the full content of the media.
The repeat (Repeat) and random playback (Mix) functions remain active forthe corresponding media source until they are closed for that source.

Press the SCAN, MIX or RPT... function button again to stop the currentplayback mode at the track currently playing.

.
Limiting the playback mode to the folders, playlists or tracks
Depending on the audio source that is being played, playback can be limi-ted to the files, folders or playlists by pressing the playback mode functionbutton several times. The display of the function button changes according-ly (for example in Fig. 19: MIX FLDR).
Display on the function button: effect... CD or ... ALL: All the tracks on the active data medium are played in theselected playback mode.... FLD: Only the tracks in the active folder are played in the selected play-back mode.... PLS: Only the tracks of the active playlists are played in the selectedplayback mode. Playing playlists ⇒ page 26.... TRACK: Repeats the track (title) that is playing (only with REPEAT).
Displays on the function buttons may vary with equipment model.
Compatibility with all encoding/recording software, recording devices andrecording media cannot be guaranteed. Incompatible USB devices canmake noise, interrupt playback or not playback at all.

Introduction
Depending on the version of the vehicle, the MEDIA-IN multimedia interfacemay be in a different location. Please refer to the vehicle Instruction Manualto locate the position of the socket.
The supported file formats listed below are collectively referred to as “audiofiles”.
Audio files on an external data medium connected to the MEDIA-IN multime-dia interface can be played and controlled via the radio system.
Where this manual refers to external data media, this means USB mass stor-age devices containing supported audio files, such as MP3 players, iPods™and USB sticks. External data media are displayed as MDI (Media Device In-terface) on the radio system.
The MEDIA-IN multimedia interface supplies the usual USB voltage of ap-proximately 5 volts.

MEDIA-IN multimedia interface and AUX-IN multimedia socket
The MEDIA-IN multimedia interface is often installed in combination with anAUX-IN multimedia socket ⇒ page 28.
Notes and restrictions
Only audio files readable through the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface will bedisplayed, played and managed in the radio system.
In the case of MTP players, it may take a few minutes before the device isready for playback – depending on the battery status and the quantity ofdata.

31Audio mode●When playing large capacity hard discs with several files and a complexdata structure (several folders and subfolders, non-playable files, etc.) itmay take some time to read the audio files. The reaction time may also beinfluenced by the connected device.
●
WMA (Windows Media Audio) audio files can only be played if they arenot protected by authors' rights with the DRM (Digital Rights Management)system.
●
Generally, files with anti-copy protection cannot be played (e.g. M4P).
●
It is not possible to play files in 3GP format or “WMA lossless” files.Check there are no MP3 files stored in the playlist. A playlist only defines acertain order of play. If a playlist cannot be played, check that the “relativepaths” are correct, i.e. that the MP3 files on the data medium are actuallystored at the locations referenced by the playlist.
If an external data medium is divided into several partitions, only the firstpartition with compatible audio files will be played.
Please refer to further limitations and notes on the requirements placed onmedia sources ⇒ page 21.
WARNING●The connected audio devices must be protected from possible me-chanical damage and other kind of wear.●
We do not hold responsible for any possible damage on the connec-ted devices.
●
The connection of USB devices is sensitive to interference from mo-bile telephones. Mobile telephones should not be left next to the USBwhen this is connected, to prevent distortion.
●
The connected audio devices must be protected from possible me-chanical damage and other kind of wear.
●
Objects which are not secured in the vehicle compartment may inter-fere with driving and could result in serious injury.
WARNING (Continued)●The external data device should never be left on the dash panel. Asharp manoeuvre can throw the device towards the compartment and in-jure the vehicle passengers.
●
The external data device should never be mounted in the vicinity ofthe airbag. If an airbag is activated it can project the device towards thecompartment and injure the vehicle passengers.
●
The external data device must not be held in hand or on the legswhile driving. A sharp manoeuvre can throw the device towards the com-partment and injure the vehicle passengers.
●
Place the external data device cables so that they are not in the waywhile driving.
CAUTION
Make sure that the adapter lead is not pinched or severely bent. This candamage the adapter lead and cause functional faults.
Note
Some vehicles with the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface mounted on the cen-tre armrest are also equipped with an additional compartment. The rubberinsert of this compartment can be removed in order to extract small objectswhich may have fallen inside.
Note
●Do not connect an external media player to the radio-navigation systemvia Bluetooth and via the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface at the same time,as this could lead to limitations in playback.
●
