Ambient Conditions For Playing Disc - Pioneer AVIC-N3 Hardware Manual

• The sound quality of MP3 files generally
becomes better with an increased bit rate. This
product can play recordings with bit rates from
8 kbps to 320 kbps, but in order to be able to
enjoy sound of a certain quality, we recom-
mend using only discs recorded with a bit rate
of at least 128 kbps.

Notes:
• This product assigns folder numbers. The user
can not assign folder numbers.
• If you are using a folder that does not contain
an MP3 file, the folder itself will display but you
will not be able to see any files in the folder.
• MP3 files in up to 8 tiers of folders can be
played back. However, there is a delay in the
start of playback on discs with numerous tiers.
For this reason we recommend creating discs
with no more than 2 tiers.
• It is possible to play back up to 253 folders on
one disc.

• Despite our careful design of the product, as a
result of mechanical wear, ambient conditions
for use, or handling of the disc, small
scratches that do not affect actual operation
may appear on the disc surface. This is not a
sign of the malfunction of this product. Con-
sider it to be normal wear and tear.
