tended to provide general information.
ŠKODA AUTO a.s. pursues a policy of constant product and model develop-
ment. Changes in terms of supply scope are possible at any time with regard to
design, equipment and technology. The information listed in these Operating
Instructions corresponds to the information available at the time of going to

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.
Supported files
Audio filesCodec type (file
formats)MPEG-1/2 (layer 3)Windows Media Audio 7, 8, 9 and 10File suffixmp3wmaPlaylistsm3u, pls, wpl, m3u8; asx
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. 
