•Only external data devices or USB mass storage devices complying with
the USB 2.0 specification can be used.•Partition of an external data device shall be in accordance with the file
system, FAT16 (< 2 GB) or FAT32 (> 2 GB) (FAT: File Allocation Table).•MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) players, recognised by the commercial
name “PlaysForSure” or “ReadyForVista ”, are highly sensitive to factors
including the battery charge and the volume of data in the MEDIA-IN multi-
media interface requests. It may take several minutes before an MTP player is
ready to play.•When playing large capacity hard discs with several files and a complex
data structure (several folders and subfolders, non-playable files, etc.) it may
take some time to read the audio files. The reaction time may also be influ-
enced by the connected device.•The structure of the folders in the external data device shall not exceed a
depth of eight folder levels. A folder should not contain more than 1,000
entries.•The use of USB cable extensions and USB hubs may cause operating
errors.•If an external data device is divided into various partitions, only the first
partition with compatible audio files will be played.•Memory card adapters can not be used, their use may cause operating
errors.•If an MP3 player is updated via the manufacturer (firmware update) this
may lead to operating errors.•An external data device should be connected first or select the corre-
sponding data mode.•Compatible formats include: MP3, WMA, OGG-Vorbis, AAC.•Please refer to the respective manufacturer's manual for instructions on
the operation of the external data medium. Compatible file formats
The use of file formats which can be played on this equipment is the same as
for compressed audio files in MP3 format and will not be explained further in
this manual.
•The radio and navigation equipment can be used to play and control
audio files in MP3, WMA, OGG Vorbis and AAC format from an external data
device.•Playlists in PLS, B4S, ASX and WPL format are compatible.•W M A ( W i n d o w s M e d i a A u d i o ) a u d i o f il e s ca n o n l y b e p la y e d i f t h e y a r e n o t

system.•Generally, files with anti-copy protection can not be played (e.g. M4P).•Files in 3GP format and “WMA lossless” file types can not be played.
Check there are no MP3 files stored in the playlist. A playlist only defines a
certain order of play. If a playlist is not played, check whether the “route data”
is correct, that is, whether the MP3 files are stored in the data device to which
the playlist refers.WARNING
•The connected audio devices must be protected from possible mechan-
ical damage and other kind of wear.•We do not hold responsible for any possible damage on the connected
devices.•The connection of USB devices is sensitive to interference from mobile
telephones. Mobile telephones should not be left next to the USB when
this is connected, to prevent distortion.•The connected audio devices must be protected from possible mechan-
ical damage and other kind of wear.•Objects which are not secured in the vehicle compartment may inter-
fere with driving and could result in serious injury.

36Adjusting the output volume (AUX/MDI VOLUME LEVEL)
If you need to increase the output volume for the external audio source, first
lower the base volume on the radio system ⇒page 11.
If the sound from the external audio source is too low , if possible, increase
the output volume on the external audio source. If this is not sufficient, set
the input volume (AUX VOL LEVEL ) in the unit settings to level 2 or level 3 .
If the sound from the connected external audio source is too loud or
distorted , if possible, lower the output volume on the external audio source.
If this is not sufficient, set AUX VOL LEVEL to level 2 or level 1 .
Speed-dependent volume adjustment (GALA)
The GALA function automatically adjusts the volume in line with the speed of
the vehicle.
You can set the degree to which the volume increases with speed (GALA) on
a scale between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume rises only slightly as the speed of the vehicle
increases. At a high setting the volume is increased more. At 0 speed-
dependent volume adjustment is switched off.
Caution
If the volume is too high or the sound is distorted, the vehicle speakers may
be damaged.
Note
To maintain the best reception for the selected radio station in areas where
RDS is supported, use the following settings: RDS
