CD, MP3 CD, USB PLAYER


The audio equipment will only play audio fi les with ".m4a, .wma,
.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 VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of fi le (.mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
WMA fi les must be of the standard wma 9 type.
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.

devices via the USB port (suitable cable not supplied).

system controls.

MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS


CD, MP3 CD, USB PLAYER


Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB memory stick
in the USB player or connect the USB peripheral to the
USB port using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory), an
operation which can take from a few seconds to several
minutes at the fi rst connection.
Reduce the number of non-music fi les and the number
of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is
switched off or connection of a USB memory stick.
However, the system memorises these lists and if they
are not modifi ed, the loading time will be shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which depends
on the capacity of the USB memory stick.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS



QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


The system does not receive
SMS text messages.
The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending SMS text messages to the system.

The CD is ejected
automatically or is not
played by the player. The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any
audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.
Le CD has been recorded in a format that is not compatible with the
player.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not
recognised by the audio system.

- Check that the CD is inserted in the player
the right way up.

- Check the condition of the CD: the CD
cannot be played if it is too damaged.

- Check the content in the case of a recorded
CD: consult the advice in the "Audio" section.

- The audio system's CD player does not play
DVDs.

- Some recorded CDs will not be played by
the audio system because they are not of
the correct quality.
There is a long waiting
period following the insertion
of a CD or connection of a
USB memory stick. When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of
data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a
few minutes. This phenomenon is normal.
The CD player sound is
poor. The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in
suitable conditions.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without
selecting an ambience.
Some characters in the
media information are not
displayed correctly while
playing. The audio system does not display some types of characters. Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.

QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


With the engine off, the
system switches off after a
few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
Playback of my USB
memory stick starts only
after a very long wait
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some fi les supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my iPhone
as telephone and to the
USB port at the same time,
I am unable to play the
music fi les. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it forces the
streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USB
function which is then not useable. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port
(the USB function takes priority over streaming).
