Using an MP3
(Radio with Single CD Player)
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 files that were
recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW disc. The
files can be recorded with the following
fixed bit rates: 32 kbps, 40 kbps, 56 kbps,
64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps, 112 kbps, 128
kbps, 160 kbps, 192 kbps, 224 kbps, 256
kbps, and 320 kbps or a variable bit rate.
Song title, artist name, and album are
available for display by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio will also play discs that contain
both uncompressed CD audio (.CDA files)
and MP3 files. By default the radio shows
the MP3 label on the left side of the screen
but plays both file formats in the order in
which they were recorded to the disc.
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a per-
sonal computer:
 Make sure the MP3 files are recorded on
a CD-R or CD-RW disc. Do not mix standard audio and MP3 files
on one disc.
 The CD player is able to read and play a
maximum of 50 folders, 15 playlists, and
512 folders and files.
 Create a folder structure that makes it
easy to find songs while driving. Orga-
nize songs by albums using one folder
for each album. Each folder or album
should contain 18 songs or less.
 Avoid subfolders. The system can sup-
port up to eight subfolders deep, how-
ever, keep the total number of folders to
a minimum in order to reduce the com-
plexity and confusion in trying to locate a
particular folder during playback.
 Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl
extension (other file extensions may not
work).
 Minimize the length of the file, folder, or
playlist names. Long file, folder, or playl-
ist names, or a combination of a large
number of files and folders, or playlists
may cause the player to be unable to
play up to the maximum number of files,
folders, playlists, or sessions. If you wish
to play a large number of files, folders,
playlists or sessions, minimize the length
of the file, folder, or playlist name. Long
names also take up more space on the
display, potentially getting cut off.
 Finalize the audio disc before you burn it.
Trying to add music to an existing disc
may cause the disc not to function in the
player.

Navigation/Radio SystemYour vehicle may have a navigation radio
system.
The navigation radio system has built-in
features intended to minimize driver dis-
traction. Technology alone, no matter how
advanced, can never replace your own
judgment. For complete information on
your navigation radio system, including tips
on helping to reduce distractions while
driving, see the Navigation System Man-
ual.Rear Seat Entertainment SystemYour vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE
system works with the vehicle's audio sys-
tem. 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 head-
phones, and a remote control. Refer to
“Radio with CD and DVD (MP3)” in this
section for more information on the vehi-
cle’s audio/DVD system.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passen-
gers 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 RSEsystem 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 sys-
tem.
Parental Control
The RSE system may have a Parental
Control feature, depending on which radio
you have. The Parental Control feature will
turn off the video screen. This feature also
disables all button operations from the
remote control. This feature can be used to
gain the attention of the rear passengers
that are using headphones.
To enable Parental Control press and hold
the radio power button for more than two
seconds. If on, the radio and video screen
will turn off. If a DVD and/or CD is playing,
it will be stopped. A “padlock” icon or a text
message may be displayed on the radio
display depending on which radio you
have, while Parental Control is on. The
radio can be turned back on with a single
press of the power button and used nor-
mally, but the RSE system will remain in
Parental Control.
To turn off Parental Control, press and
hold the radio power button for more than
two seconds. The video screen will return
to the state they were in before Parental
Control was turned on. The padlock icon
will disappear from the radio display.Parental Control can also be turned off by
inserting or ejecting any disc, an ignition
cycle, or pressing the play icon on the
radio DVD display menu.
Headphones
1674951
The RSE includes two 2-channel wireless
headphones that are dedicated to this sys-
tem. These headphones are used to listen
to media such as CDs, DVDs, MP3s,
DVDAs, radio, or any auxiliary source con-
nected to the auxiliary input jack, if your
vehicle has this feature or A/V jacks. The
wireless headphones have an On/Off but-
ton, channel 1/2 switch, and a volume con-
trol.
If your vehicle has a third row video screen
display, it will have two additional head-
phones.

3-68 INSTRUMENT PANEL
78J00-03E
Push the power button to turn on the head-
phones. An indicator light located on the
headphones will illuminate. If the light does
not illuminate, the batteries may need to be
replaced. See “Battery Replacement” later
in this section for more information. Switch
the headphones to Off when not in use.
The infrared transmitters are located at the
rear of the RSE overhead console. The
headphones will shut off automatically to
save the battery power if the RSE system
is shut off or if the headphones are out of
range of the transmitters for more than
three minutes. If you move too far forward
or step out of the vehicle, the headphones
will lose the audio signal.
The headphones will automatically turn off
after four hours of continuous use.
To adjust the volume on the headphones,
use the volume control located on the right
side.
For optimal audio performance, the head-
phones must be worn correctly. The sym-
bol L (Left) will appear on the upper left
side, above the ear pad and should be
positioned on the left ear.
The symbol R (Right) will appear on the
upper right side, above the ear pad and
should be positioned on the right ear.
If the remote control becomes lost or dam-
aged, a new universal remote control can
be purchased. If this happens, make surethe universal remote control uses a code
set of Toshiba
®.
The foam ear pads attached to the head-
phones may become worn or damaged if
they are not handled or stored properly. If
the foam ear pads do become damaged or
worn out, the pads can be replaced sepa-
rately from the headphone set. It is not
necessary to replace the complete head-
phone set. The headphone replacement
foam ear pads can be ordered in pairs.
See your dealer for more information.
Battery Replacement
To change the batteries, do the following:
1) Turn the screw with a coin or screw
driver to loosen, then slide open the
battery door located on the left side of
the headphones.
2) Replace the two batteries in the com-
partment. Make sure that they are
installed correctly, using the diagram on
the inside of the battery compartment.
3) Replace the battery door and tighten
the door screw.If the headphones are to be stored for a
long period of time, remove the batteries
and keep them in a cool, dry place.
Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks
1676611
The A/V jacks are located on the rear of
the floor console. The A/V jacks allow
audio or video signals to be connected
from an auxiliary device such as a cam-
corder or a video game unit to the RSE
system. Adapter connectors or cables may
be required to connect the auxiliary device
to the A/V jacks. Refer to the manufac-
turer’s instructions for proper usage.
The A/V jacks are color coded to match
typical home entertainment system equip-
ment. The yellow jack (A) is for the video
input. The white jack (B) is for the left audio
input. The red jack (C) is for the right audio
input.
