CD and CD Player Information
Note:CD units are designed to playcommercially-pressed 4.75 inch (12centimetre) audio compact discs only. Dueto technical incompatibility, certainrecordable and re-recordable compact discsmay not function correctly when used inFord CD players.
Note:CDs with homemade paper(adhesive) labels should not be insertedinto the CD player as the label may peel andcause the CD to become jammed. It isrecommended that homemade CDs beidentified with permanent felt tip markerrather than adhesive labels. Ballpoint pensmay damage CDs. Contact an authoriseddealer for further information.
Note:Do not use any irregularly shapeddiscs or discs with a scratch protection filmattached.
Always handle discs by their edges only.Clean the disc with an approved CDcleaner only, wiping from the centre of thedisc toward the edge. Do not clean in acircular motion.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight orheat sources for extended periods of time.
MP3 and WMA Track and FolderStructure
Audio systems capable of recognising andplaying MP3 and WMA individual tracksand folder structures work as follows:
•There are two different modes for MP3and WMA disc playback: MP3 andWMA track mode (system default) andMP3 and WMA folder mode.
•MP3 and WMA track mode ignores anyfolder structure on the MP3 and WMAdisc. The player numbers each MP3and WMA track on the disc (noted bythe .mp3 file extension) from T001 toa maximum of T255. The maximumnumber of playable MP3 and WMA filesmay be less depending on the structureof the CD and exact model of radiopresent.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine •MP3 and WMA folder mode representsa folder structure consisting of onelevel of folders. The CD player numbersall MP3 and WMA tracks on the disc(noted by the .mp3 or . WMA fileextension) and all folders containingMP3 and WMA files, from F001 (folder)T001 (track) to F253 T255.
•Creating discs with only one level offolders helps with navigation throughthe disc files.
If you are burning your own MP3 and WMAdiscs, it is important to understand howthe system reads the structures you create.While various files may be present, (fileswith extensions other than mp3 andWMA), only files with the .mp3 and WMAextension are played; other files areignored by the system. This enables you touse the same MP3 and WMA disc for avariety of tasks on your work computer,home computer and your in-vehiclesystem.
In track mode, the system displays andplays the structure as if it were only onelevel deep (all .mp3 and WMA files areplayed, regardless of being in a specificfolder). In folder mode, the system onlyplays the .mp3 or WMA files in the currentfolder.
