Root Directory:
The root directory is treated as a folder. Files are stored
in the root directory when the disc or storage device
does not contain folders. Files accessed from the root
directory display as F1 ROOT.
Empty Folder:
Folders that do not contain les are skipped, and the
player advances to the next folder that contains les.
Supported Bit Rates
The following bit rates are supported: 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.
File Naming
ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags are supported. The track name
contained in the ID3 tag is shown on the display.
The display only shows up to 32 characters for track
and le names.
If the track name is not contained in the ID3 tag, the
display shows the le name without the le extension.
Playlists
Playlists that do not have a .mp3 or .wpl extension
may not work.
Preprogrammed playlists created by WinAmp™,
MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™ software are
supported and they cannot be edited using the radio.
Playing an MP3
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up. The
player pulls it in, and READING displays. The CD should
begin playing and the CD symbol displays.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD-R in the
player, it stays in the player. When the ignition or radio is
turned on, the CD-R starts to play where it stopped, if
it was the last selected audio source.
As each new track starts to play, the track number
displays.
Order of Play
Tracks are played sequentially in the following order:
1. Playlists.
2. Files contained in the root directory.
3. Files contained in folders.
