Troubleshooting guide:
SymptomCause and Countermeasure
Cannot play Check if the disc or USB device was inserted correctly.
Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
Check if there is condensation inside the player, and if there is, wait until the condensation is gone (about 1 hour) be-
fore using the player.
If there is a temperature increase error, the player will play correctly after it returns to the normal temperature.
If there is a mixture of music CD files (CD-DA data) and compressed audio files on a CD, only the music CD files (CD-DA
data) will be played.
Files with extensions other than “.MP3 (.mp3)”, “.WMA (.wma)”, “.AAC (.aac)”, “.M4A (.m4a)”, or “.AA3 (.aa3)” cannot
be played. In addition, the character codes and number of characters for folder names and file names should be in
compliance with the specifications.
Check if the disc or the file is generated in an irregular format. This may occur depending on the variation or the set-
ting of compressed audio writing applications or other text editing applications.
Check if the finalization process, such as session close and disc close, is done for the disc.
Check if the disc or USB device is protected by copyright.
Poor sound quality Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
It takes a relatively long time
before the music starts playing. If there are many folder or file levels on the disc or USB device, some time may be required before the music starts
playing.
Music cuts off or skips The writing software and hardware combination might not match, or the writing speed, writing depth, writing width,
etc., might not match the specifications. Try using the slowest writing speed.
Skipping with high bit rate files Skipping may occur with large quantities of data, such as for high bit rate data.
Move immediately to the next
song when playing. If an unsupported compressed audio file has been given a supported extension like .MP3, or when play is prohibited
by copyright protection, the player will skip to the next song.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-57

SymptomCause and Countermeasure
The songs do not play back in
the desired order. The playback order is the order in which the files were written by the writing software, so the files might not play in
the desired order.
Random/Shuffle may be active on the audio system or on a USB device.

Compressed Video Files (models with
navigation system)
Explanation of terms :
●DivX - DivX refers to the DivX codec
owned by DivX, Inc. used for a lossy com-
pression of video based on MPEG-4.
● AVI - AVI stands for Audio Video Interleave. It
is a standard file format originated by Micro-
soft Corporation. A “.divx” encoded file can
be saved into the “.avi” file format for play-
back on this system if it meets the require-
ments stated in the table in this section.
However, not all the “.avi” files are playable
on this system since different encodings can
be used than the DivX codec.
● ASF - ASF stands for Advanced Systems
Format. It is a file format owned by Microsoft
Corporation. Note: Only “.asf” files that meet
the requirements stated in the table in this
section can be played.
● Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number of
bits per second used by a digital video file.
The size and quality of a compressed digital
audio file is determined by the bit rate used
when encoding the file. Requirement for Supporting Video Playback:
Media CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD, DVD±R, DVD±RW, DVD±RW DL, USB 2.0 Memory

BluetoothAudio player (models with
navigation system)
● Some Bluetooth audio devices may not be
recognized by the in-vehicle audio system.
Contact an INFINITI retailer for compatible
devices.
● It is necessary to set up the wireless connec-
tion between a compatible Bluetooth audio
device and the in-vehicle Bluetooth module
before using the Bluetooth audio player.
● Operating procedure of the Bluetooth audio
player will vary depending on the device.
Make sure it is understood how to operate
an audio device before using it with this
system.
● The Bluetooth audio player may be stopped
under the following conditions:
– Receiving a hands-free call.
– Checking the connection to the hands- free phone.
● Do not place a Bluetooth audio device in an
area surrounded by metal or far away from
the in-vehicle Bluetooth module to prevent
tone quality degradation and wireless con-
nection disruption. ●
While an audio device is connected through
a Bluetooth wireless connection, the bat-
tery power of the device may discharge
quicker than usual.
● This system supports the Bluetooth Audio
Distribution Profile (A2DP, AVRCP).
● Bluetooth is a trademark owned by
Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
Music Box (if so equipped)
Recording :
●Note that data that is lost and not stored on
the hard drive/flash memory due to system
damage, improper operation or malfunction
is not under warranty.
● Vehicle owners are not permitted to record

the copyright except for personal use.
● Check if the music is appropriately recorded
on the hard drive/flash memory after record-
ing when the compact disc cannot be rere-
corded.
● Some music cannot be recorded depending
on the disc condition due to high-speed
recording. ●
Jumping sounds may be recorded when a
compact disc is recorded while driving on
rough roads and excessive vibration occurs.
● A mark indicating jumping sounds is dis-
played if jumping sounds are recorded.
● No sounds may be recorded if jumping
sounds occurs or the disc is in poor condi-
tion.
● Tracks that include Serial Copy Management
System (SCMS) are not recorded.
● If a compact disc is scratched or dirty, it may
not be recorded, jumping sounds may occur
or it may take a long time to record.
Automatic title download :
● The title information that is automatically
downloaded may differ from the actual title.
● When newly released compact discs are
recorded, their title information may not be
