MP3 MODE

NOTE MPEG Layer-3 audio decoding
technology licensed from Fraunhofer IIS
and Thomson multimedia.
In addition to playing normal audio CDs,
the car radio is also able to play CD-
ROMs on which compressed MP3 format
audio files have been recorded. The car
radio functions as previously described
above when a normal audio CD is loaded.
To guarantee best sound reproduction,
we recommend good quality media that
are burned at the slowest speed possible.
The files stored on the CD MP3 are struc-
tured in folders and sequential lists are
created for all folders that contain MP3
tracks (folders and subfolders are all
shown on the same level). The folders that
do not contain MP3 tracks cannot be se-
lected.
The operating conditions and character-
istics for playing MP3 files are as follows:
❒ the CD-ROMs used must be burned in
compliance with the Specification
ISO9660;
❒ the music files must have the ".mp3"
extension: Files with other extensions
cannot be played;
❒ the playable sampling frequency is: 44.1
kHz, stereo (96 to 320 kbit/s) - 22.05
kHz, mono or stereo (32 to 80 kbit/s);
❒ tracks with variable bit-rates can be
played.
WARNING track names must not con-
tain the following characters: spaces, '
(apostrophes), ( and ) (open and close
parenthesis). When a CD MP3 is being
burned, make sure that the file names do
not contain these characters; otherwise,
the car radio will not be able to play those
tracks.
