The audio system reads and plays
the audio f iles on the USB f lash

AAC f ormats. Depending on the
f ormat, the display shows MP3,
WMA or AAC when a USB flash
memory device is playing. The USB
f lash memory device limit is up to
700 f olders or up to 65535 f iles.Only AAC f ormat f iles recorded

f ile system. Some digital audio
players may be compatible as well.
Depending on the type of
encoding and writing sof tware
used, there may be cases where
character inf ormation does not

number of f iles, it may take some
time bef ore they begin to play. Some devices cannot be powered
or charged via the USB adapter. If
this is the case, use the accessory
adapter to supply power to your
device. We recommend backing up your
data bef ore playing a USB f lash
memory device.
Do not keep a USB f lash memory
device in the vehicle. Direct sunlight
and high heat will damage i t .
Do not use an extension cable to
the USB adapter cable equipped

memory device using a hub. Do not use a device such as a card
reader or hard drive as the device
or your f iles may be damaged.
Some USB f lash memory devices
(such as devices with security lock-
