RDS
The RDS, if displayed, enables you to
continue listening to the same station
by automatic retuning to alternative
frequencies. However, in certain conditions,
coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the entire country as
radio stations do not cover 100% of the
territory. This explains the loss of reception
of the station during a journey.
Play TA messages
The TA (Traffic Announcement) function
gives priority to TA alert messages.
To operate, this function needs good
reception of a radio station that carries
this type of message. When a traffic report
is transmitted, the current audio source
(Radio, CD, ...) is interrupted automatically
to play the TA message. Normal play of
the media previously playing is resumed at
the end of the message.Press MENU to activate or

Information and advice
The audio system can only play
files with ".mp3", ".wma" or ".wav"
extensions.
A high compression rate could damage
the quality of the sound. File names should have less than
20 characters, avoiding special
characters (e.g.: “ ? ; ù) so as to avoid
any reading or display problems.
Playlists accepted are types .m3u
and .pls.
The system can recognise up to 5,000 files
in 500 folders on 8 levels. On a given disc, the CD player can read
up to 255 MP3 files spread over 8 levels.
However, it is recommended that this
be kept to 2 levels so as to limit the time
taken to access and play the CD.
The folder structure is not observed during
playback.
In order to be able to play a burned
CDR or CDRW, select standards
ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet if possible
when burning the CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it
may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same
burning standard is always used on an
individual disc, with the lowest speed
possible (4x maximum) for the best
acoustic quality.
In the particular case of a multi-
session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended.
