please contact your dealer or the tele­phone hotline for your country . You will
find the hotline telephone numbers print­ed at the back of this booklet.

Road safety

Road safety has absolute prior­ity. Only operate your car radio if the
road and traffic conditions allow you
to do so. Familiarise yourself with the

For this reason, listen to your car
sound system at a moderate volume
level.

Protect your equipment against theft by
taking the control panel with you every
time you leave your vehicle. Do not
leave the control panel in your vehicle ­not even in a hidden place.

The control panel has been designed
to be easily use.

Note:

● Never drop the control panel.

● Never expose the control panel to

MP3 MODE

MP3 mode

You can also use this car radio for play­ing CD-Rs and CD-RWs containing
MP3 music files.

Preparing the MP3-CD

The various combinations of CD burn­ers, CD burning software and CD blanks
may lead to problems arising with the
ability to play certain CDs. If problems
occur with your own burned CDs, you
should try another brand of CD blank or
choose another blank colour.

The format of the CD must be ISO 9660
Level 1 / Level 2 or Joliet. Other formats
cannot be played reliably .

You can create a maximum of 252 di­rectories on a CD. Each of these direc­tories can be accessed using this de­vice.

Regardless of the number of directories
on a CD, a total of 999 files can be sup­ported, with up to 255 files in one single
directory.

Directories

Tracks/files

Each directory can be named using a
PC. The directory name can be dis­played in the device’s display . Name the
directories and files using your CD burn­er software. The software’s operating
instructions will provide details on how
to do this.

Note:

● When naming directories and files

you should avoid using special
characters.

If you like your files to be in the correct
order, you should use burner software
that places files in alphanumerical or­der. If your software does not provide
this feature, you can also sort the files
manually . To do so, you should place a
number (e.g. “001”, “002”, etc.) in front
of each file name - the leading zeros
must also be included.

MP3 tracks can contain addition infor­mation such as the artist, song and al­bum names (ID3 tags). This device can
display ID3 tags if they are version 1.

When creating (encoding) MP3 files
from audio files, you should use bit rates
up to a maximum of 256 kbit/sec.

Only MP3 files with the “.MP3” file ex­tension can be played on this device.

Note:

To ensure uninterrupted playback,

● Do not attempt to change the file

extension to “.MP3” of any files oth­er than MP3 files and then attempt
to play them! These invalid MP3
files will not be selected during
MP3 playback.

MP3 MODE

● Do not use “mixed” CDs containing

both non-MP3 data and MP3 files.
The unit will only select MP3 files

files. While attempting to playback
such CDs, only audio tracks will be
selected.

Switching to MP3 mode
