Order of Play

Play begins from the rst track in the rst
playlist and continues sequentially through
all tracks in each playlist. When the last track
of the last playlist has played, play continues
from the rst track of the rst playlist.
Play begins from the rst track in the rst
folder and continues sequentially through
all tracks in each folder. When the last track
of the last folder has played, play continues
from the rst track of the rst 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
le name without the extension (such as .mp3) as
the track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or
four pages are shortened. Parts of words on the
last page of text and the extension of the lename
does not display.
Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists that were created using
WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™
software can be accessed, however, they cannot
be edited using the radio. These playlists are
treated as special folders containing compressed
audio song les.
Playing an MP3 (In Either the DVD or
CD Slot)
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 allow navigation
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 available 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.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction.
Technology alone, no matter how advanced,
can never replace your own judgment. See the
Navigation System manual for some tips to
help you reduce distractions while driving.
Rear Seat Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system
works with the vehicle’s audio system. 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
headphones, and a remote control. SeeRadio with
CD and DVD on page 235for more information
on the vehicle’s audio/DVD system.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers
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 RSE system 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 system.

rear seat audio system, if your vehicle has
this feature.
The RSE system will always transmit the audio
signal to the wireless headphones, if there is
audio available. See “Headphones” earlier in this
section for more information.
When a device is connected to the radio’s auxiliary
input jack, if your vehicle has this feature, or
A/V jacks, the rear seat passengers will be able
