Audio
Station interference: When a 
reflected signal and a signal 
received directly from a radio 
station are very nearly the same 
frequency, they can interfere 
with each other, making it diffi-
cult to hear the broadcast.
Static: AM is easily affected by 
external sources of electrical 
noise, such as high tension 
power lines, lightening or electri-
cal motors. This results in static.
■SiriusXM
 Cargo loaded on the roof lug-
gage carrier, especially metal 
objects, may adversely affect 
the reception of SiriusXM Sat-
ellite Radio.
 Alternation or modifications 
carried out without appropri-
ate authorization may invali-
date the user’s right to 
operate the equipment.

Audio
*1: Variable Bit Rate (VBR) compati-ble
*2: Only compatible with Windows Media Audio  Standard
 MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3), 
WMA (Windows Media Audio) 
and AAC  (Advanced Audio 
Coding) are audio compres-
sion standards.
 This system can play 
MP3/WMA/AAC files on USB  memory.
 MP4, WMV and AVI files can 
use the following resolutions: 
128x96, 160x120, 176x144 
(QCIF), 320x240 (QVGA), 
352x240 (SIF), 352x288 
(CIF), 640x480 (VGA), 
720x480 (NTSC), 720x576 
(PAL)
 When naming an 
MP3/WMA/AAC file, add an 
appropriate file extension 
(.mp3/.wma/.m4a).
 This system plays back files 
with .mp3/.wma/.m4a file 
extensions as 
MP3/WMA/AAC files respec-
tively. To prevent noise and 
playback errors, use the 
appropriate file extension.
 MP3 files are compatible with 
the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, 
Ver. 2.2 and Ver. 2.3 formats. 
This system cannot display 
disc title, track title and artist 
name in other formats.
 WMA/AAC files can contain a 
WMA/AAC tag that is used in 
the same way as an ID3 tag. 
WMA/AAC tags carry infor-
mation such as track title and 
artist name.
 The emphasis function is 
available only when playing 
MP3 files.
 This system can play back 
AAC files encoded by iTunes.

3545-10. Tips for operating the audio/visual system
MP3/WMA files generally 
improves with higher bit rates.
 m3u playlists are not compati-
ble with the audio player.
 MP3i (MP3 interactive) and 
MP3PRO formats are not 
compatible with the audio 
player.
 The player is compatible with 
VBR (Variable Bit Rate).
 When playing back files 
recorded as VBR (Variable Bit 
Rate) files, the play time will 
not be correctly displayed if 
the fast forward or reverse 
operations are used.
 It is not possible to check fold-
ers that do not include 
MP3/WMA/AAC files.
 MP3/WMA/AAC files in fold-
ers up to 8 levels deep can be 
played. However, the start of 
playback may be delayed 
when using USB memory 
containing numerous levels of 
folders. For this reason, we 
recommend creating USB 
memory with no more than 2 
levels of folders. 
The play order of the USB 
memory with the structure 
shown above is as follows:
 The order changes depending 
on the personal computer and 
MP3/WMA/AAC encoding 
software you use.

track-related information in an 
MP3 file. This embedded infor-
mation can include the track 
number, track title, the artist’s 
name, the album title, the music 
genre, the year of production, 
comments, cover art and other 
data. The contents can be freely 
edited using software with ID3 
tag editing functions. Although 
the tags are restricted to a num-
ber of characters, the informa-
tion can be viewed when the 
track is played back.
■WMA tag
WMA files can contain a WMA 
tag that is used in the same way 
as an ID3 tag. WMA tags carry 
information such as track title 
and artist name.
■MP3
MP3 is an audio compression 
standard determined by a work-
ing group (MPEG) of the ISO 
(International Standard Organi-
zation). MP3 compresses audio 
data to about 1/10 the size of 
that on conventional discs.
■WMA
 WMA (Windows Media Audio) 
is an audio compression for-
mat developed by Microsoft
®. 
It compresses files into a size 
smaller than that of MP3 files. 
The decoding formats for 
WMA files are Ver. 7, 8 and 9.
 This product includes technol-
ogy owned by Microsoft Cor- poration and cannot be used 
or distributed without a 
license from Microsoft Licens-
ing, Inc.
■AAC
AAC is short for Advanced 
Audio Coding and refers to an 
audio compression technology 
standard used with MPEG2 and 
MPEG4.

■Microphone
It is unnecessary to speak 
directly into the microphone 
when giving a command.
●Voice commands may not be rec-
ognized if:
• Spoken too quickly.
• Spoken at a low or high volume.
• The windows are open.
• Passengers are talking while  voice commands are spoken.
• The fan speed of the air condition-
ing system is set at high.
• The air conditioning vents are  turned towards the microphone.
●In the following conditions, the 
system may not recognize the 
command properly and using 
voice commands may not be pos-
sible:
• The command is incorrect or  unclear. Note that certain words, 
accents or speech patterns may 
be difficult for the system to recog-
nize.
• There is excessive background 
noise, such as wind noise.
●Normally, it is necessary to wait 
for a beep before saying a com-
mand. To enable the ability to talk 
over prompts and say commands 
before the beep, enable the voice 
prompt interrupt function. 
( P.323)
●This system may not operate 
immediately after the engine 
Voice command sys-
