Restrictions and notes
Contamination, exposure to high tempera-
tures and mechanical damage may render a data medium unusable. Observe the manu-
facturer's instructions.
Variations in the quality of data media pro-
duced by different manufacturers may lead to
anomalies during playback.
Observe copyright laws!
The unit may be unable to read individual
tracks or the entire data medium due to the
data medium configuration or the devices
and programs used for recording. Informa-
tion can be found on the internet regarding
the best ways to create audio files and data
media (compression rate, ID3 tag etc.).
Depending on the size, its condition due to
use (copy and delete processes), the folder
structure and file type, the read time of the
data media used can vary considerably.
Playlists only determine a certain playing or-
der. There are no files stored in a playlist. The
unit will not play a playlist if the files are not
on the data medium at the locations referred
to by the playlist (relative file paths).
Note
● Do not use adaptors for memory cards.
● We will not accept any responsibility for
files damaged or lost on the data medium. 15

ment system.
● Pair or connect the Bluetooth audio source

Controlling playback
The extent to which the Bluetooth audio
source can be controlled via the infotainment
system depends on the Bluetooth audio
source connected.
Media players with the AVRCP Bluetooth pro-
file, the playback of the Bluetooth audio
source can be started and stopped automati-
cally when changing to Bluetooth audio
mode, or to another audio source. In addi-
tion, it is possible to view or change the track
via the infotainment system.
It is possible to connect a device as a player
and another as hands-free at the same time. Note
● Due to the large number of different Blue-
tooth audio sources available, it is not possi-
ble to guarantee fault-free operation of all
functions described here.
● Deactivate the service and warning sounds
of a connected Bluetooth audio source (for example, the key tones of the mobile phone)
to avoid interference noise and anomalies in
the operation.
● To play music, do not link the external me-
dia player simultaneously to Bluetooth and
the USB interface of the infotainment system,
as this can cause limitations during playback.
● Depending on the external player connec-
ted, the response time of the system can
vary. Changing tracks in the main menu
