MP3 Track and Folder
Structure
Audio systems capable of recognizing
and playing MP3 individual tracks and
folder structures work as follows:
• There are two different modes forMP3 disc playback: MP3 track
mode (system default) and MP3
folder mode.
• MP3 track mode ignores any folder structure on the MP3 disc. The
player numbers each MP3 track on
the disc (noted by the .mp3 file
extension) from T001 to a
maximum of T255. The maximum
number of playable MP3 files may
be less depending on the structure
of the CD and exact model of radio
present.
• MP3 folder mode represents a folder structure consisting of one
level of folders. The CD player
numbers all MP3 tracks on the disc
(noted by the .mp3 file extension)
and all folders containing MP3
files, from F001 (folder) T001
(track) to F253 T255.
• Creating discs with only one level of folders helps with navigation
through the disc files.
If you are burning your own MP3 discs,
it is important to understand how the
system reads the structures you
create. While various files may be
present, (files with extensions other
than mp3), only files with the .mp3 extension are played; other files are
ignored by the system. This enables
you to use the same MP3 disc for a
variety of tasks on your work
computer, home computer and your
in-vehicle system.
In track mode, the system displays
and plays the structure as if it were
only one level deep (all .mp3 files
play, regardless of being in a specific
folder). In folder mode, the system
only plays the .mp3 files in the current
folder.

Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control,
crash and injury. We strongly
recommend that you use extreme
caution when using any device that
may take your focus off the road. Your
primary responsibility is the safe

recommend against the use of any
hand-held device while driving and

Audio System

Both heated mirrors remove ice, mist
and fog when you switch on the
heated rear window.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin
air filter. It is located behind the glove
box.
The particulate filtration system
reduces the concentration of airborne
particles such as dust, spores and
pollen in the air supplied to the interior
of your vehicle.
Note:To prevent foreign objects from
entering the system, make sure the
cabin air is in place at all times.
Running the system without a filter in
place could result in degradation or
damage to the system.
The particulate filtration system gives
you and your passengers the following
benefits:
• It improves your driving comfort by reducing particle concentration.
• It improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control components from particle
deposits.
Replace the filter at regular intervals.
See Scheduled Maintenance (page
436).
For additional cabin air filter
information, or to replace the filter,
see an authorized dealer.
REMOTE START
The climate control system adjusts
the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during
remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its
previous settings. You can now make
adjustments. You need to turn certain
vehicle-dependent features back on,
such as:
• heated seats
• cooled seats
• heated steering wheel
• heated mirrors
• heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the
information display controls. See

Automatic Settings
You can set the climate control to
operate in AUTO mode through the
information display setting: Remote
Start > Climate Control > Heater-A/C
> Auto. The climate control system
automatically sets the interior
temperature to 72°F (22°C).
In hot weather, the system is set to
72°F (22°C). Cooled seats are set to
high (if available, and selected to
AUTO in the information display).
In moderate weather, the system
either heats or cools (based on
previous settings). The rear defroster,
heated mirrors and heated/cooled
seats do not automatically turn on.
