Unreadable SD memory card
If there are no readable files on the SDmemory card nothing will play.
Due to differing quality requirements from different card manufacturers, it is
not always possible to guarantee the playback from SD memory cards.
Some files on the SD memory card or SD memory cards cannot be reproduced
or their reproduction may be limited.
CAUTION■ Only use SD cards in standard size. When using smaller SD card with the
adapter the SD memory card can fall out while driving the vehicle due to vibra-
tions from the adapter.■
We recommend using class 4 SD memory cards and higher. This guarantees
the fastest possible access to the audio files.

Always store the SD cards in suitable cases to protect them from dirt, dust
and other forms of damage.
