You can change playlists by using the pre-
vious and next folder buttons, the tuner
knob, or the seek buttons. You can also
play an MP3 CD-R that was recorded
using no file folders. If a CD-R contains
more than the maximum of 50 folders, 15
playlists, and 512 folders and files, the
player lets you access and navigate up to
the maximum, but all items over the maxi-
mum are not accessible.
Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R is treated
as a folder. If the root directory has com-
pressed audio files, the directory is dis-
played as the CD label. All files contained
directly under the root directory are
accessed prior to any root directory fold-
ers. However, playlists (Px) are always
accessed before root folders or files.
If a disc contains both uncompressed CD
audio (.CDA) and MP3 files, a folder under
the root directory called CD access all of
the CD audio tracks on the disc.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists some-
where in the file structure that contains
only folders/subfolders and no compressed
files directly beneath them, the player
advances to the next folder in the file struc-
ture that contains compressed audio files.
The empty folder does not display.
No Folder
When the CD-R contains only compressed
files, the files are located under the rootfolder. The next and previous folder func-
tions do not display on a CD-R that was
recorded without folders or playlists.
When the CD-R contains only playlists and
compressed audio files, but no folders, all
files are located under the root folder. The
folder down and the folder up buttons
searches playlists (Px) first and then goes
to the root folder.
Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R are played in
the following order:
 Play begins from the first track in the first
playlist and continues sequentially
through all tracks in each playlist. When
the last track of the last playlist has been
played, play continues from the first track
of the first playlist.
 Play begins from the first track in the first
folder and continues sequentially
through all tracks in each folder. When
the last track of the last folder has
played, play continues from the first track
of the first folder.
When play enters a new folder, the display
does not automatically show the new folder
name unless you have chosen the folder
mode as the default display. The new track
name appears on the display.
File System and Naming
The song name that displays is the song
name that is contained in the ID3 tag. If the
song name is not present in the ID3 tag,then the radio displays the file name with-
out the extension (such as .mp3) as the
track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or
four pages are shortened. The display
does not show parts of words on the last
page of text and the extension of the file-
name is not displayed.
Preprogrammed Playlists
You can access preprogrammed playlists
that were created using WinAmp
TM, Music-
Match

files directly beneath them, the player
advances to the next folder in the file struc-
ture that contains compressed audio files.
The empty folder does not display.
No Folder
When the CD-R contains only compressed
files, the files are located under the root
folder. The next and previous folder func-
tion does not function on a CD-R that was
recorded without folders or playlists. When

Insert a CD-R partway into either the top or
bottom slot, label side up. The player pulls
it in, and the CD-R should begin playing.
Depending on the format of the disc, a
softkey menu appears and allows naviga-
tion of the disc. The menu reads left to
right as RDM (Randomize song play
order), a Folder icon with left and right
arrows (to move up or down through avail-
able folders), a PL tag if the disc has a
Playlist available, and a Music Navigator
tag. If a Playlist tag is shown, toggling this
key brings up a Folder softkey only or the
menu as previously described.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a
CD-R in the player, it stays in the player.
When the ignition or radio is turned on, the
CD-R starts to play where it stopped, if it
was the last selected audio source.

Navigation/Radio SystemYour vehicle may have a navigation radio
system.
The navigation radio system has built-in
features intended to minimize driver dis-
traction. Technology alone, no matter how
advanced, can never replace your own
judgment. For complete information on
your navigation radio system, including tips
on helping to reduce distractions while
driving, see the Navigation System Man-
ual.Rear Seat Entertainment SystemYour vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE
system works with the vehicle's audio sys-
tem. The DVD player is part of the front
radio. The RSE system includes a radio
with a DVD player, a video display screen,
audio/video jacks, two wireless head-
phones, and a remote control. Refer to
“Radio with CD and DVD (MP3)” in this
section for more information on the vehi-
cle’s audio/DVD system.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passen-
gers only. The driver cannot safely view
the video screen while driving and should
not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions
the RSE system may or may not work until
the temperature is within the operating
range. The operating range for the RSEsystem is above –4°F (–20°C) or below
140°F (60°C). If the temperature of your
vehicle is outside of this range, heat or
cool the vehicle until the temperature is
within the operating range of the RSE sys-
tem.
Parental Control
The RSE system may have a Parental
Control feature, depending on which radio
you have. The Parental Control feature will
turn off the video screen. This feature also
disables all button operations from the
remote control. This feature can be used to
gain the attention of the rear passengers
that are using headphones.
To enable Parental Control press and hold
the radio power button for more than two
seconds. If on, the radio and video screen
will turn off. If a DVD and/or CD is playing,
it will be stopped. A “padlock” icon or a text
message may be displayed on the radio
display depending on which radio you
have, while Parental Control is on. The
radio can be turned back on with a single
press of the power button and used nor-
mally, but the RSE system will remain in
Parental Control.
To turn off Parental Control, press and
hold the radio power button for more than
two seconds. The video screen will return
to the state they were in before Parental
Control was turned on. The padlock icon
will disappear from the radio display.Parental Control can also be turned off by
inserting or ejecting any disc, an ignition
cycle, or pressing the play icon on the
radio DVD display menu.
Headphones
1674951
The RSE includes two 2-channel wireless
headphones that are dedicated to this sys-
tem. These headphones are used to listen
to media such as CDs, DVDs, MP3s,
DVDAs, radio, or any auxiliary source con-
nected to the auxiliary input jack, if your
vehicle has this feature or A/V jacks. The
wireless headphones have an On/Off but-
ton, channel 1/2 switch, and a volume con-
trol.
If your vehicle has a third row video screen
display, it will have two additional head-
phones.
