RDS, if displayed, allows you to continue listening to the same
station by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the entire country as radio stations do not
cover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception
of the station during a journey.

CD, MP3 CD, USB PLAYER


The audio equipment will only play audio fi les with ".m4a, .m4b,
.aac, .fl ac, .ogg and .mp3" fi le extensions and with a bit rate of
between 32 Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of fi le (.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
The sampling rates supported are 11, 22, 44 and 48 KHz.

It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters, without using of
special characters (e.g. : " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing and displaying
problems.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording
it is preferable to select the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
If the disc is recorded in another format it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used
for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)
for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended.
