Additional instructions
Additional instructions for the mass storage device (MSD):
●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 in-
cluding the battery charge and the volume of data in the MEDIA-IN multime-
dia 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
influenced 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 1000 en-
tries.
● The use of USB cable extensions and USB hubs may cause operating er-
rors.
● If an external data device is divided into various partitions, only the first
partition with compatible audio files will be played.
● Memory card adapters cannot 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 fur-
ther in this manual.
●
The radio and navigation equipment can be used to play and control au-
dio files in MP3, WMA, OGG Vorbis and AAC format from an external data
device.
● Playlists in PLS, B4S, ASX and WPL format are compatible.
● WMA (Windows Media Audio) audio files can only be played if they are
not protected by authors' rights with the DRM (Digital Rights Management)
system.
● Generally, files with anti-copy protection cannot be played (e.g. M4P).
● Files in 3GP format and “WMA lossless” file types cannot 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 da-
ta” 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 me-
chanical damage and other kind of wear.
● We do not hold responsible for any possible damage on the connec-
ted devices.
● The connection of USB devices is sensitive to interference from mo-
bile 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 me-
chanical 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.

FIXThe unit only changes to regional alternative frequencies for the current station broadcasting the same regional
service. Only when the reception becomes too weak, will the radio accept frequencies of another broadcasting sta-
tion.
RADIOTEXT: Some RDS-compatible stations broadcast additional text information. The individual radio station is responsible for the texts displayed.

Adjusting 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 distor-
ted, 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.
