Playing Hard Disc Drive (HDD) Audio (Models with navigation system)
The Hard Disc Drive (HDD) Audio
function can record tracks from
music CDs to the navigation system's

for various playing methods, such as
playing recorded tracks on an artist-
by-artist or genre-by-genre basis. For
example, you can play the tracks that
you want to listen to in any order
that you like for each playlist.
