Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
use the cellular phone at a place as
far as possible from the audio equip-
ment.
Care of disc (if equipped)
If the temperature inside the car is too high, open the car windows for
ventilation before using your car
audio.
It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA/AAC/WAVE files with-
out permission. Use CDs that are
created only by lawful means.
Do not apply volatile agents such as benzene and thinner, normal
cleaners and magnetic sprays
made for analogue disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged. Hold and carry
CDs by the edges or the edges of
the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe
it from the center to the outside
edge).
Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or
paper onto it.
Make sure on undesirable matter other than CDs are inserted into
the CD player (Do not insert more
than one CD at a time). Keep CDs in their cases after use
to protect them from scratches or
dirt.
Depending on the type of CD- R/CD-RW CDs, certain CDs may
not operate normally according to
manufacturing companies or mak-
ing and recording methods. In such
circumstances, if you still continue
to use those CDs, they may cause
the malfunction of your car audio
system.
✽ ✽ NOTICE - Playing an
Incompatible Copy-Protected
Audio CD
Some copy protected CDs, which do
not comply with the international
audio CD standards (Red Book),
may not play on your car audio.
Please note that if you try to play
copy protected CDs and the CD
player does not perform correctly
the CDs maybe defective, not the CD
player.
WARNING - Cell phone use
Do not use a cellular phone
while driving. Stop at a safe
location to use a cellular phone.

damage the USB device. (USB
flashdrives are very sensitive to
electric shock.) Connect the
device after starting up.
The System may not play inau- thentic MP3 or WMA files.
1) It can only play MP3 files with the compression rate between
8Kbps~320Kbps.
2) It can only play WMA music files with the compression rate
between 8Kbps~320Kbps.
Take precautions for static elec- tricity when connecting or dis-
connecting the external USB
device. An encrypted MP3 PLAYER is
not recognizable.
Depending on the condition of the external USB device, the
connected external USB device
can be unrecognizable.
When the formatted byte/sector setting of External USB device is
not either 512BYTE or
2048BYTE, then the device will
not be recognized.
Use only a USB device format- ted to FAT 12/16/32.
USB devices without USB I/F authentication may not be recog-
nizable.
If you repeatedly connect or dis- connect the USB device in a
short period of time, it may dam-
age the device.
You may hear a strange noise when connecting or disconnect-
ing a USB device.
If you disconnect the external USB device during playback in
USB mode, the external USB
device can be damaged or may
malfunction. It is recommended to disconnect
the external USB device when
the audio is turned off or in
modes other than USB.
(e.g, Radio, SIRIUS or CD)
Depending on the type and capacity of the external USB
device or the type of the files
stored in the device, there is a
difference in the time taken for
recognition of the device.
Do not use the USB device for purposes other than playing
music files.
Playing videos through the USB is not supported.
If you use devices such as a USB hub purchased separately,
the vehicle’s audio system may
not recognize the USB device. In
that case, connect the USB
device directly to the multimedia
terminal of the vehicle.
If the USB device is divided by logical drives, only the music
files on the highest-priority drive
are recognized by car audio.
