■USB memory
●Compatible devices
USB memory devices that can be used for MP3, WMA and AAC (audio mode) or
MP4, WMV and AVI (video mode) playback.
●Compatible device formats
The following device format can be used:
• USB communication format: USB2.0 FS (480 Mbps) • File system format: FAT16/32 (Windows)• Correspondence class: Mass storage class
MP3, WMA and AAC files written to a device with any format other than those listed above may not play correctly, and their file names and folder names may notbe displayed correctly.
Items related to standards and limitations are as follows:
• Maximum directory hierarchy: 8 levels • Maximum number of folders in a device: 3000 (including the root)
• Maximum number of files in a device: 9999 • Maximum number of files per folder: 255
●MP3, WMA and AAC files
MP3 (MPEG Audio LAYER 3) is a standard audio compression format. Files can be compressed to approximately 1/ 10 of their original size using MP3 com-
pression.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a Microsoft audio compression format. This format compresses audio data to a size smaller than that of the MP3 format.
AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding an d refers to an audio compression technol- ogy standard used with MPEG2 and MPEG4.
MP3, WMA and AAC file and media/ formats compatibility are limited.
●MP3 file compatibility
• Compatible standards
MP3 (MPEG1 AUDIO LAYERIII, MPEG2 AUDIO LAYERIII) • Compatible sampling frequencies MPEG1 AUDIO LAYERIII: 32, 44.1, 48 (kHz)
MPEG2 AUDIO LAYERIII: 16, 22.05, 24 (kHz) • Compatible bit rates (c ompatible with VBR) MPEG1 AUDIO LAYERIII: 32-320 (kbps)

●MP3, WMA and AAC playback
• When a device containing MP3, WMA or AA C files is connected, all files in the USB memory device are checked. Once the file check is finished, the first MP3,
WMA or AAC file is played. To make the file check finish more quickly, we recom- mend that you do not include any files other than MP3, WMA or AAC files or cre-ate any unnecessary folders.
• When a USB memory device is connected and the audio source is changed to USB memory mode, the USB memory device will start playing the first file in the firstfolder. If the same device is removed and reconnected (and the contents have not
been changed), the USB memory device will resume play from the same point in which it was last used.
●Extensions
If the file extensions .mp3, .wma and .m4a are used for files other than MP3, WMA and AAC files, they will be skipped (not played).
●Playback
• To play MP3 files with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit rate of at least 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for MP3, WMA and AAC files on the market, and depending on the status of the encoding and thefile format, poor sound quality or noise at the start of playback may result. In some
cases, playback may not be possible at all. • Microsoft, Windows, and Windows Medi a are the registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the U.S.A. and other countries.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the USB memory device or its terminals
●Depending on the size and shape of the USB memory that is connected to the sys-tem, the console box may not close fully. In this case, do not forcibly close the consolebox as this may damage the USB memory or the terminal, etc.
●Do not leave the USB memory device in the vehicle. The temperature inside the vehi-cle may become high.
●Do not push down on or apply unnecessary pressure to the USB memory device
while it is connected.
●Do not insert foreign objects into the port.
