9Introductory information

Note■The Radio Data System (RDS) is used to transfer additional information. The
RDS enables program identification, program type identification (PTY), the re-
ception of traffic reports (TP) or automatic station tracking, for example. If
there is sufficient reception, RDS-compatible radio stations will be displayed
by station name rather than station frequency.■
The Alternative frequency (AF) function ensures that the best receivable fre-
quency for the selected station is set automatically.
■
In countries where the RDS function is not adequately supported, the device
may not be fully functional. We therefore recommend switching off the RDS
regional setting as well as the Alternative frequency (AF) setting, if applicable.
Otherwise, these settings can affect the functionality of the radio.

At the time of publication, the device has been tested with most products and
media available on the various markets. However, it is possible that some devi-
ces, media or files will be unreadable or unplayable.

The name of the artist, the album and the title of the played file can be dis-
played if the information is available as a so-called ID3 tag. If no ID3 tag is
available, only the folder name is displayed.
For a good playback, we recommend using a bit rate of min. 160 kb/s com-
pressed MP3 - files. For audio files with variable bit rates, the indicated re-
maining playback time does not correspond to the actual remaining playback
time.
The WMA files can only be played if they are not additionally copyrighted by
DRM. These kinds of WMA files are not supported by the device.
The more files, folders or play lists on one source, the longer it will take to read the source. It is a good idea to create subfolders with files (e.g. by artist or al-
bum names) in order to save time. 
