Notes on creating your own CD-Rs  
or CD-RWs containing MP3 files  
DESCRIPTIONS OF MP3  
Notes on MP3  
To enjoy high sound quality, we recommend  
storing MP3 files with a sampling frequency of  
44.1 kHz and a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps.  
Do NOT store more than 512 MP3 files per disc.  
Note that the unit may not play tracks in the  
order that you wrote them to the disc.  
The unit can read up to 5 sessions with a multi  
session disc.  
An MP3 file stores audio data compressed  
using MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding  
scheme. We call files that have the “.mp3”  
extension “MP3 files.”  
The unit can read MP3 files written in the format  
compliant with ISO 9660. However it does not  
support the MP3 data copied using a packet  
writing utility.  
For ISO 9660-compliant format, the maximum  
allowable depth of nested folders is 8, including  
the root directory (folder).  
The unit cannot read an MP3 file that has a file  
extension other than “.mp3.”  
If you play a non-MP3 file that has the “.mp3”  
extension, you may hear some static.  
In this manual, we refer to what are called “MP3  
file” and “folder” in PC terminology as “track”  
and “album,” respectively.  
The unit can play up to 512 tracks per disc.  
The unit may not play tracks in the order of track  
numbers.  
Tips on identifying the order of the  
tracks  
Include a two- or three-digit number at the  
beginning of each album or track name. (e.g.  
“01,” “02,” … or “001,” “002,” …)  
If you use the numbers such as “1,” “2,” “3,” …  
”9,” “10,” “11,” …, the unit unexpectedly plays in  
the order of “1,” “10,” “11,” … “2,” “20,” “21,” …  
“3,” “30,” “31,” and so on.  
It may take 2 minutes or more to scan a CD-R or  
CD-RW, depending on the complexity of the  
folder tree.  
It is recommended that you use only the parent  
folders (do not create child folders under a  
folder).  
The unit plays only the audio tracks if a disc  
contains both audio tracks and MP3 files.  
Writing software capable of writing MP3 files in  
numerical and alphabetical order is required if  
you want them in order. For details on using the  
software, refer to the operating instructions  
supplied with your software.  
Notes on indications in the display  
Up to 32 characters are displayed for the name  
of an album or a track. Characters other than  
uppercase letters (“A” to “Z”), lowercase letters  
(“atoz”),numerals(“0to9”),andunderscore  
(“_”) may not be displayed.  
When playing MP3 files, the elapsed playing  
time displayed may not be correct.  
To display up to 30 characters for a track name  
or an artist’s name, ID3TAG version 1.x is  
required. Characters other than uppercase  
letters (“A” to “Z”), lowercase letters(“a” to “z”),  
numerals (“0” to “9”), and underscore (“_”) may  
not be displayed.

There may be cases in which the infrared signal  
doesnotreachtheinfraredreceptoronthemain  
unit, depending on the installation location.  
Do NOT install the remote control unit on the  
outer rim of the steering wheel. Doing so may  
hinder steering and cause a traffic accident. Be  
sure to install the remote control unit on the  
inner rim of the steering wheel.
