The audio equipment will only play audio files with ".wma, .aac, .flac, .ogg  and   .mp3"   file   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   file   (.mp4,   .m3u...)   can   be   played.
WMA
 

files   must   be   of   the   standard   wma   9   type.
The
  sampling   rates   supported   are   greater   than   32   KHz.
It
  is   advisable   to   restrict   file   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   (udf, ...),   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.Information and advice
The
  system   supports   USB   mass   storage   or   iPod  
devices

  via   the   USB   port   (suitable   cable   not   supplied).
If
  a   partitioned   USB   memory   key   is   connected   to   the  
system,

  only   the   first   partition   is   recognised.
Control of the peripheral device is with the audio
system
  controls.
The
  number   of   tracks   is   limited   to   2000   maximum,  

999

  tracks   per   folder.
If
  the   current   consumption   at   the   USB   port   exceeds  
500

  mA,   the   system   goes   into   protection   mode   and  
deactivates

  the   port.
Other
  peripherals,   not   recognised   on   connection,   must  
be

  connected   to   the   auxiliary   socket   using   a   Jack   cable  
(not

  supplied).
Give
  preference   to   multimedia   USB   memory   sticks   (in   general  
formatted

  FAT
 
32   File  
Allocation
 
T
able).
The
  system   does   not   support   the   operation   of   an  
Apple® player and a
USB
 
memory
 
stick
 
connected
 
at
 
the
 
same
 
time.
It
 
is
 
recommended
 
that
 
official
 
Apple® USb cables are used to ensure
correct
 
operation.

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   first  
connection.
Reduce

  the   number   of   non-music   files   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   modified,   the   loading  
time

  will   be   shorter.
Play
  starts   automatically   after   a   period   which  
depends

  on   the   capacity   of   the   USB   memory

The
 
distribution   (or   spatialisation   using   the

With
 
Sound
 
Staging,
 
the
 
driver   and   passengers   are   immersed   in   an  
"audio

 
scene"
 
recreating
 
the   natural   atmosphere   of   an   auditorium:  
truly

 
a
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
scene
 
and   its   surroundings.
This
 
new
 
sensation
 
is
 
made   possible   by   software   in   the   audio   system  
which

 
processes
 
the
 
digital   signals   from   the   media   players   (radio,  
CD,

 
MP3…)
 
without
 
changing   the   audio   settings.  
This
  processing  
takes

 
account
 
of
 
the
 
characteristics   of   the   passenger   compartment   to  
produce

 
optimum
 
results.
The
 
Arkamys© software installed in your audio system processes the
 
digital
 
signal   from   the   media   players   (radio,   CD,   MP3,   ...)   and  
recreates

 
a
 
natural   musical   scene,   with   harmonious   placement   of  
instruments

 
and   voices   in   the   space   in   front   of   passengers,   level   with  
the

 
windscreen.

The audio system's CD player does not play DVDs.
- Some  recorded   CDs   will   not   be   played   by  the

The
 
CD
 
has
 
been
 
recorded
 
in
 
a
 
format
 
that
 
is
 
not
 
compatible
 
with

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.
