General notes on CDs
Playing an audio CD When the audio CD is
inserted in the player,
playing of the tracks is
automatic and they can
be recorded onto the
hard disc.
Simultaneous access to the music rec-
ognition service "Gracenote CDDB" on
the hard disc permits displaying of the
title information. Switching off the engine or removing
the CD during recording will result in
the tracks being faulty.
The operation of the navigation system
may slow down during recording.
The recording speed may be slower
than 4x due to the processing load on
the equipment or the condition of the
audio CD.
If jumps or other errors occur, return to
the beginning of the track and start the
recording again.
Even if there is no gap between the
tracks on the CD, a brief silence be-
tween tracks is stored on the hard disc.

Recording onto the music server
The tracks of audio CDs (not
MP3/WMA) can be recorded
onto the hard disc at approximately
4x speed (e.g.: 60 minutes converted
to 15 minutes) and stored on the music
server.
The sounds recorded may be altered
by the noise present and the quality of
the sound may differ from the original.
The tracks recorded on the music serv-
er cannot be reproduced on another
medium (CD-R/RW, HDD, etc...).
Previously recorded tracks cannot be
recorded again from the same CD. The title information for the
track currently being played
can be obtained from the
"Gracenote CDDB" database
stored on the hard disc.
The Gracenote company uses this
standard to identify the music and the
associated information such as:
- the title of the album,
- the name of the artist,
- the title of the tracks,
- the genre, ...

porated in this equipment cannot guar-
antee the content of the data 100 %.
You can update this database using a
