■USB memory functions
●Depending on the USB memory device that is connected to the system,
the device itself may not be operable and certain functions may not be
available. If the device is inoperable or a function is unavailable due to a
malfunction (as opposed to a system specification), disconnecting the
device and reconnecting it may resolve the problem.
● If the USB memory device still does not begin operation after being dis-
connected and reconnected, format the memory.

MessageCause/Correction procedures
“Connection error. Please
consult your Owner’s
Manual for instructions on
how to connect the USB
device.”
This indicates a problem with the USB
memory device or its connection.
“There are no file avail-
able for playback. Please
add compatible file to
your USB device.”This indicates that no MP3/WMA/AAC
files are included on the USB memory
device.

288 3-2. Using the multimedia system
●AAC file compatibility
• Compatible standards
MPEG4/AAC-LC
• Compatible sampling frequencies 11.025/12/16/22.05/24/32/44.1/48 (kHz)
• Compatible bit rates 16-320 (kbps)
• Compatible channel modes: 1 ch and 2 ch
● File names
The only files that can be recognized as MP3/WMA/AAC and played are
those with the extension .mp3 or .wma.
● ID3, WMA and AAC tags
ID3 tags can be added to MP3 files, making it possible to record the track
title, artist name, etc.
The system is compatible with ID3 Ver. 1.0, 1.1, and Ver. 2.2, 2.3 ID3 tags.
(The number of characters is based on ID3 Ver. 1.0 and 1.1.)
WMA tags can be added to WMA files, making it possible to record the
track title and artist name in the same way as with ID3 tags.
AAC tags can be added to AAC files, making it possible to record the track
title and artist name in the same way as with ID3 tags.
● MP3, WMA and AAC playback
• When a device containing MP3, WMA and AAC files is connected, all
files in the USB memory device are checked. Once the file check is fin-
ished, the first MP3, WMA and AAC file is played. To make the file
check finish more quickly, we recommend that you do not include any
files other than MP3, WMA and AAC files or create any unnecessary
folders.
• When a USB memory device is connected and the audio source is changed to USB memory mode, the USB memory device will start
playing the first file in the first folder. If the same device is removed and
reconnected (and the contents have not been changed), the USB
memory device will resume play from the same point in which it was
last used.
● Extensions
If the file extensions .mp3, .wma and .m4a are used for files other than
MP3, WMA and AAC files, they will be skipped (not played).

Playback
• To play MP3 files with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit
rate of at least 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for MP3, WMA and AAC files on the market, and depending on the status
of the encoding and the file format, poor sound quality or noise at the
start of playback may result. In some cases, playback may not be pos-
sible at all.
• Microsoft, Windows, and Windows Media are the registered trade- marks of Microsoft Corporation in the U.S.A. and other countries.
CAUTION
■ While driving
Do not connect a USB memory device or operate the device controls.

inside the vehicle may become high, resulting in damage to the USB
memory device.
● Do not push down on or apply unnecessary pressure to the USB memory
device while it is connected.
● Do not insert foreign objects into the port.
