AUDIO SYSTEM
HD Radio Technology
Sound:
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Delay in digital audio on HD Radio broadcasts. The radio acquires an analog station first and blends to a digital signal.This is not a malfunction.
Audio skip, stutter or echo. The radio station has not properly aligned the digi-
tal and analog audio. Verify correct operation on another station. Report
any station with poor performance.
Volume changing up/down. The radio station has not properly aligned digital
and analog audio level. Verify correct operation on another station and
check www.hdradio.com for stations in the area. Report any station with poor performance.
Sound fading in and out. The transition between analog and digital is taking
place (blending). Verify transition performance on several stations in
the area. Report any station with poor perfor- mance.
Excessive blending (Transition between analog and digital). The receiver is located near the edge of the digital
coverage area. Refer to www.hdradio.com to verify stations in
your coverage area.
Digital audio not better than analog audio. Audio processing on the digital audio at a station can potentially decrease the digital audio soundquality. Verify correct operation on another station. Report

Functional:
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Keep losing my local stations. The digital coverage is slightly less than the analog
signal coverage. Verify correct operation on another station. This is
expected behavior.
Shadowing (urban/terrain) can cause reduced digi- tal coverage. Verify correct operation on another station.
Some data fields are blank. Text information is sent at the broadcaster's discre-
tion. Verify correct operation on another station. Report
station issues.
Text information is truncated / appears to be more available. The display is limited to a fixed number of charac-
ters and more data is being sent than can be shown. This is intended behavior. Refer to the Owner's
Manual for ability to access addition.
AM reception changes at night. AM stations are required by the government (FCC)
to lower their power at night. This is not a malfunction.

Compact Disc (CD) player
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Music cannot be played back. The disc is inserted upside down.Insert a CD with the label side facing up.
Moisture has accumulated inside the unit. Wait until the moisture evaporates. (approximately 1 hour)
The cabin temperature is too high. Wait until the cabin temperature becomes
moderate.
The disc is scratched or dirty. Wipe off any dirt from the disc.
Scratched discs cannot be recovered. Replace the disc.
Depending on the condition in which they are stored, discs may become unreadable due to
deterioration (for example, keeping the discs in the passenger compartment, etc.). Replace the disc with a deterioration-free disc. Do
not use a deteriorated disc. The label surface of the disc may crack or chip, and the layer of the label surface may eventually peel off.
Compressed audio files cannot be played back. If both music CD files (CD-DA data) and compressed audio files (MP3 data, etc.) are mixedon one disc, the compressed audio files cannot be played back. Prepare a disc that contains compressed audio files
only.
The files are not named using characters that are compliant with the specifications. Use the character codes and the number of
characters that are compliant with the
specifications for folder names and file names. In addition, always use “.MP3”, “.WMA”, “.mp3” or “.wma” file extensions.
It takes a long time before the music starts playing. The disc contains a large amount of data. Some time may be required to check the files. It is recommended that unnecessary folders or any filesother than compressed audio files should not be recorded on a disc.
The sound quality is poor. The disc is dirty.Wipe off any dirt from the disc.
Display screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio system4-127

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
No sounds are played although the CD play time is displayed. The system is playing the first track of a mix mode
disc. (Mix mode is a format in which data except
music is recorded on the first track and music data is recorded on one other than the first track in a session.) Play music data in other tracks.
Music cuts off or skips. The combination of writing software and hardware
might not match; or the writing speed, writingdepth, writing width, etc. might not match the specifications. Create a disc using different writing speed settings,
etc.
The system skips the selected track and moves to the next track. A non-MP3/WMA file has been given an extension
of “.MP3”, “.WMA”, “.mp3” or “.wma”. Prepare MP3/WMA files.
Some of the file cannot be played due to copyright protection. Prepare playable files.
The tracks do not play back in the desired order. The folder locations on the disc are changed by the writing software while the files are written on thedisc. Check the settings of the writing software and
create a new disc.
