11. AUDIO SYSTEM OPERATING HINTS
Fading and drifting stations: Generally, the
effective range of FM is about 25 miles (40
km). Once outside this range, you may no-
tice fading and drifting, which increase with
the distance from the radio transmitter.
They are often accompanied by distortion. Multi-path: FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for two signals to reach the
vehicle’s antenna at the same time. If this
happens, the signals will cancel each other
out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of
reception.
Static and fluttering: These occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping: If the FM signal being
listened to is interrupted or weakened, and
there is another strong station nearby on
the FM band, the radio may tune in the
second station until the original signal can
be picked up again.
Fading: AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere — especially at
night. These reflected signals can interfere
with those received directly from the radio
station, causing the radio station to sound
alternately strong and weak.
Station interference: When a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a ra-
dio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
Static: AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening or electrical
motors. This results in static.

Cargo loaded on the roof luggage carrier,
especially metal objects, may adversely
affect the reception of XM Satellite Radio.
 Alternation or modifications carried out
without appropriate authorization may
invalidate the user’s right to operate the
equipment.
NOTICE
●To avoid damage to the audio system:
• Be careful not to spill beverages over
the audio system.
INFORMATION
● The use of a cellular phone inside or
near the vehicle may cause a noise from
the speakers of the audio system which
you are listening to. However, this does
not indicate a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception
does not mean there is a problem with
the radio — it is just the normal result
of conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and ter-
rain can interfere with FM reception.
Power lines or phone wires can inter-
fere with AM signals. And of course, ra-
dio signals have a limited range. The
farther the vehicle is from a station, the
weaker its signal will be. In addition, re-
ception conditions change constantly
as the vehicle moves.
Here, some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a
problem with the radio are described.

USB memory that can be used for MP3
and WMA playback:
• USB communication formats: USB 2.0
HS (480 Mbps) and FS (12 Mbps)
• File formats: FAT 16/32
• Correspondence class: Mass storage class
 MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA
(Windows Media Audio) are audio com-
pression standards.
 When naming an MP3 or WMA file, add
the appropriate file extension (.mp3 or
.wma).
 The USB memory plays back files with
.mp3 or .wma file extensions as MP3 or
WMA files. To prevent noise and playback
errors, use the appropriate file extensions.
 USB memory: MP3 files are compatible
with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver.
2.2, Ver. 2.3 and Ver. 2.4 formats. The unit
cannot display track title and artist name
in other formats.
 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.
 The emphasis function is available only
when playing MP3/WMA files recorded at
32, 44.1 and 48 kHz.

WMA files for USB memory:
Ver. 7, 8, 9 (9.1/9.2) CBR — 32, 44.1, 48
kHz
 The sound quality of MP3/WMA files gen-
erally improves with higher bit rates. In
order to achieve a reasonable level of
sound quality, discs recorded with a bit
rate of at least 128 kbps are recom-
mended.
 MP3 files for USB memory:
MPEG 1 AUDIO LAYER 3 — 32 to 320
kbps
MPEG 2 AUDIO LAYER 3 — 8 to 160
kbps
WMA files for USB memory:
Ver. 9 (9.1/9.2) CBR — 48 to 320 kbps

*: Variable Bit Rate
 M3u playlists are not compatible with the
audio player.
 MP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO for-
mats are not compatible with the audio
player.
 The player is compatible with VBR (Vari-
able Bit Rate).
 When playing back files recorded as VBR
(Variable Bit Rate) files, the play time will
not be correctly displayed if the fastfor-
ward or reverse operations are used.
 It is not possible to check folders that do
not include MP3/WMA files.
 MP3/WMA files in folders 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
two levels of folders. 
The play order of the USB memory with
the structure shown above is as follows:
 USB memory: It is possible to play up to
3000 folders, 255 files per folder or 9999
files in the device.
 The order changes depending on the per-
sonal computer and MP3/WMA encoding
software you use.

This is a method of embedding track-
related information in an MP3 file. This
embedded information can include the
track title, the artist’s name, the album
title, the music genre, the year of produc-
tion, comments and other data. The con-
tents can be freely edited using software
with ID3 tag editing functions. Although
the tags are restricted to a number of
characters, the information can be viewed
when the track is played back.
 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.
 Playlists created using “WINAMP” soft-
ware have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
 MP3 is an audio compression standard
determined by a working group (MPEG) of
the ISO (International Standard Organiza-
tion). MP3 compresses audio data to
about 1/10 the size of that on conventional
discs.
 WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio
compression format developed by
Microsoft
®. It compresses files into a size
smaller than that of MP3 files. The decod-
ing formats for WMA files are Ver. 7, 8 and
9 (9.1/9.2).
