Introduction5
IntroductionImportant Information. Traffic safetyTravelling on today's roads requires the driver's full attention at all times.
Only operate the radio and its various functions when the traffic situation
really permits this.
WARNING
•
Before starting the trip, you should familiarise yourself with the
different radio functions.
•
A high audio volume may represent a danger to you and to others.
•
Adjust the volume in a way that you can distinguish surrounding noise,
for example, horns, sirens, etc.
•
Radio settings should be made when the car is stopped, or by a
passenger.

Remember7
Alternative frequencies (AF) This function is only available on FM.
Some RDS programmes can be broadcast by various stations with different
frequencies.
If function is ON, available alternative frecuency searches for the selected
radio stations are done.
Your radio automatically (and quietly) chooses the strongest signal for the
selected station.
If you are driving through an area with bad coverage, each automatic re-tune
will result in short breaks or slight changes in volume in the audio source.Using your CD player– Do not insert credit cards, coins or other objects inside the CD unit.
– Do not insert irregular-shaped discs, discs with anti-scratch protection or discs with labels attached inside the unit.
– Do not insert DVDs, Dual-Disc, DVD+, Flip Disc as these contain large quantities of information and can not be read.
– Only use standard 12 cm diameter CDs.
– Some anti-copy CDs cannot be played in the unit.
– Store discs in their cases when not in use. – Insert the CD into the unit until the mechanism automatically
pulls it.
– Insert CD with the printed side facing upwards and at the correct angle into the front opening of the radio.
– Do not try to insert a CD when there is already a CD in the unit.
– The radio is fitted with a disconnection protective device and when the temperature of the CD unit is too high, the radio
switches to the last selected source.
– The playing time of files recorded with a variable bit rate may not be accurate.
Tips when handling CDs– Hold the CD by the edge or by the edges and through the central hole. Figure prints and scratches reduce sound quality.
– CDs left in direct sunlight or very high temperatures may be damaged or may block the CD player.
– Normally CD-R/CD-RW discs have an operating temperature of -5 °C to 55 °C. Please, see the manufacturer specifications for the
CD.

Remember
8Important for care– Do not use fluids such as benzen e or solvents to clean CDs as
these may scratch the surface of the disc.
– Use soft non-fray cloths and clean in straight lines from the centre to the outer edge. If dirt is very incrusted, use commercial
CD cleaners and check manufacturer information.Tips for handling your CD-ROM•
Each burning session on a CD-R or CD-RW must be closed.
•
Compatibility with the International Standard for CD-DA (Digital Audio)
discs is guaranteed.
•
Copyright laws must be observed when making copies.
•
The playing of CD-RW discs is not guaranteed.
•
The following formats of file types/audio can not be played:
- MP3 files without extension “MP3”
- Audio files simply renamed as “MP3”
- WMA files
- Play lists
- New formats
We recommend•
Recordable CDs with a maximum of 74 minutes playing time in ac cord-
ance with ISO-9660 level 1 or 2.
•
Generate MP3 files with a maximum bit rate of 320 kbit/s
•
Avoid using hybrid CDs (MP3 files and other file types)
•
Do not generate discs with more than 8 levels of sub-folder.
•
Shorten the names of MP3 files to 64 characters and names of artists,
album and songs to 32 characters.
Important for care
CDs recorded using Windows Vista in UDF format can not normally be played.
The ISO-9660 format should be used.
Advice for radio reception
•
If radio reception is poor, try to tu ne into a different frequency. Minor
breaks to audio reproduction may occur during the tuning process.
•
When driving in built-up or mountainous areas, the signal may be
affected. Interference is normal and is not a fault in the radio.
