As many as 99 tracks can be shown, although all those contained in the
folder can be played
A title with three figures will not show the hundreds on the screen, only the
last two.
The music can be controlled via the radio keys. Choosing and playing songs,
fast forward and rewind and random playback are described in the radio
manual of your vehicle.
If there are folders in the root directory individual files will not be played, so
all data in the root directory should be in folders
Storing files in a memory stick or MP3 player
Store files in folders instead of using th e root directory of the memory stick or
player. In this way the songs can be stored in order (eg all the songs in a
certain style in the same folder).
The function keys to of the radio can only select the first 5 folders.
If there are more than 6 folders in the memory stick or MP3 player their
content cannot be played.
The folders can be subdivided into subf olders eg different albums by an
artist.
Example of a music folder structure:
Playback of music via USB connection
Connect the memory stick or MP3 player with the USB extension cable to the
USB port.
The screen will show the first 6 folders detected by the USB port, displayed as
CD 1 to CD 6 . Folders without music files will not be included.
If there are more than 6 music folders in the device, the exact number of
folders can be shown using the CD options. If the music files are not classified into folders, but stored directly in the root
directory, the radio will read the files and play them in the same order. The
display then shows
CD 1.
Music files and folders will be played in alphabetical order, so files begin-
niing woth numbers will be se lected first, before those with letters. A file with
the name 1XXXXXXXX will be played before another with the name AAAAAA.
Screen indications
When selecting a music file with the CD keys, it appears iin the radio equip-
ment screen Track 1.
As many as 99 tracks can be shown.
WARNING
Please keep your attention on driving as a priority!•
Adjust the volume so that external no ise can be heard at all times, such
as police, fire and emergency services sirens.
•
Never remove the memory stick or MP3 player when driving.Note
•
Before turning off the engine, the USB port memorises the position of the
song playing As long as the content is not changed, the system will start
again from this point.
•
If many songs are skipped, there may be a delay during playback.
•
The detection of the memory stick or MP3 playere requires a few seconds
depending on the type of memory used.
•
The title of the song is not shown on the screen.

34Navigation OverviewHow does the navigation system work, and how is it operated?
An optimal route is defined using sensors, satellites and
traffic reports and the driver is then guided to his or her desti-
nation.The current vehicle position is determined using a system of satellites (GPS -
Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure distances that
have been driven. Thanks to the detailed information on the navigation CD
the measurements values are compared and if necessary they are updated
using the traffic reports ( TMC = Traffic Message Channel). An optimal route to
the destination is determined in this way.
Navigation announcements and direction arrows shown on the screen and on
the instrument panel

tion. You can drive to a given address in towns you are unfamiliar with, or
drive to the nearest garage or be guided to a hotel.

SafetyThe navigation system determines the po sition of the vehicle, the direction
and distance and the route to a selected destination without taking traffic
regulations into account. Navigation recommendations are given as
announcements by the system. Direction arrows are also shown on the
screen. The destination is entered when the vehicle is stationary. The desti-
nation guide function is designed for ca rs and is thus unsuitable for larger
commercial vehicles.

Dynamic destination guide preconditions
In order to use the dynamic destination guide, a TMC station must always be
available ( TMC indicator on the lower right hand side of the screen). If the
station received does not offer the TMC service, it is possible to search for a
TMC station after beginning the destination guide. A selection may be made
from the TMC stations framework ⇒ page 12. Once a TMC station has been
found or selected, the destination guide is started.
While the destination guide is operating, other sound sources may be used
(for example an audio CD), even though the TMC reception will remain active
while the reception is good (Note ⇒page 56, “The destination guide without
the navigation CD”). If you continue li stening to the radio, the tuned radio
station should offer the TMC service.
If the signal from the TMC station is lost, the radio and navigation system
searches for another similar type station.
