Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
The radio system has an auxiliary input jack located on
the lower right side of the faceplate. This is not an
audio output; do not plug the headphone set into the
front auxiliary input jack. An external audio device such
as an iPod, laptop computer, MP3 player, CD player,
or cassette tape player, etc. can be connected to
the auxiliary input jack for use as another audio source.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in PARK (P). SeeDefensive Driving
on page 4-2for more information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary input jack.
When a device is connected, press the radio CD/AUX
button to begin playing audio from the device over
the vehicle speakers.
For optimal sound quality, increase the portable audio
device’s volume to the loudest level.
It is always best to power your portable audio device
through its own battery while playing.
O(Power/Volume):Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the volume of
the portable player. Additional volume adjustments
might have to be made from the portable device if the
volume is not loud or soft enough.BAND:Press to listen to the radio when a portable audio
device is playing. The portable audio device continues
playing, so you might want to stop it or turn it off.
CD/AUX (CD/Auxiliary):Press to play a CD when a
portable audio device is playing. Press again and
the system begins playing audio from the connected
portable audio player. If a portable audio player is
not connected, “No Input Device Found” displays.
DVD/CD AUX (CD/Auxiliary):Press this button to cycle
through DVD, CD, or Auxiliary when listening to the
radio. The DVD/CD text label and a message showing
track or chapter number displays when a disc is in
either slot. Press this button again and the system
automatically searches for an auxiliary input device,
such as a portable audio player. If a portable audio
player is not connected, “No Aux Input Device” displays.
If a disc is in both the DVD slot and the CD slot the
DVD/CD AUX button cycles between the two sources
and does not indicate “No Aux Input Device”. If a
front auxiliary device is connected, the DVD/CD AUX
button cycles through all available options, such
as: DVD slot, CD slot, Front Auxiliary, and Rear Auxiliary
(if available). See “Using the Auxiliary Input Jack(s)”
later in this section, or “Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks” under,
Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) System on page 3-115
for more information.
3-102

Using an MP3 (Radio with CD or
Six-Disc CD Player)
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 les that were recorded on a CD-R
or CD-RW disc. The les can be recorded with the
following xed 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 also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA les) and MP3 les. By
default the radio shows the MP3 label on the left
side of the screen but plays both le formats in the
order in which they were recorded to the disc.
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a personal computer:
Make sure the MP3 les are recorded on a CD-R
or CD-RW disc.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3 les on one disc.
Make sure the CD does not have more than a
maximum of 50 folders, 15 playlists, and 512 folders
and les to read and play.
Create a folder structure that makes it easy to nd
songs while driving. Organize songs by albums using
one folder for each album. Each folder or album
should contain 18 songs or less.
Avoid subfolders. The system can support up to
eight subfolders deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum in order to reduce
the complexity and confusion in trying to locate a
particular folder during playback.
Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl extension
(other le extensions might not work).
3-103

Minimize the length of the le, folder, or playlist
names. Long le, folder, or playlist names, or a
combination of a large number of les and folders, or
playlists could cause the player to be unable to play
up to the maximum number of les, folders, playlists,
or sessions. If you wish to play a large number of
les, folders, playlists or sessions, minimize the
length of the le, 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 could cause the disc
not to function in the player.
Playlists can be changed by using the
Sc
(previous) andcT(next) folder buttons, thef
knob, or the©SEEK¨arrows. You can also play an
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW that was recorded using no le
folders. If a CD-R or CD-RW contains more than
the maximum of 50 folders, 15 playlists, and 512 folders
and les, the player lets you access and navigate up
to the maximum, but all items over the maximum are not
accessible.
Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R or CD-RW is treated as a
folder. If the root directory has compressed audio les,
the directory displays as the CD label. All les contained
directly under the root directory are accessed prior to any
root directory folders. However, playlists (Px) are always
accessed before root folders or les.
If a disc contains both uncompressed CD audio (.CDA)
and MP3 les, a folder under the root directory called
CD accesses all of the CD audio tracks on the disc.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the
le structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no
compressed les directly beneath them, the player
advances to the next folder in the le structure
that contains compressed audio les. The empty folder
does not display.
3-104

No Folder
When the CD contains only compressed les, the les
are located under the root folder. The next and previous
folder function does not display on a CD that was
recorded without folders or playlists.
When the CD contains only playlists and compressed
audio les, but no folders, all les are located under the
root folder. The folder down and up buttons search
playlists (Px) rst and then goes to the root folder.
Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or CD-RW are played in
the following order:
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 displays.
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.
3-105

Insert a CD-R or CD-RW partway into the slot (Single
CD Player), or press the load button and wait for
the message to insert disc (Six-Disc CD Player), label
side up. The player pulls it in, and the CD-R or CD-RW
should begin playing.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD-R or
CD-RW in the player it stays in the player. When the
ignition or radio is turned on, the CD-R or CD-RW starts
to play where it stopped, if it was the last selected
audio source.
As each new track starts to play, the track number and
song title displays.
ZEJECT:Press this button to eject CD-R(s) or
CD-RW(s). To eject the CD-R or CD-RW that is currently

be removed. If the CD-R or CD-RW is not removed,
after several seconds, the CD-R or CD-RW
automatically pulls back into the player and begins
playing. For the Six-Disc CD player, press and hold this
button for two seconds to eject all discs.

in the previous folder.
cT(Next Folder):Press the pushbutton positioned
