CD, MP3 CD / USB player
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).
Use only USB memory sticks formatted FAT32 (File Allocation Table).
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.

The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first

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
stick.Selection of source
