MP3/WMA OPERATION
Instructions for TFT control and Insert/Eject are the same for
DVD and MP3 operation. Please see the DVD/Disc Video
Operation section for information about these topics.
MP3 Playing Order
Loading an SD Card
Insert the SD card into the SD slot (21) on the front of the
radio. The unit will read the audio media files on the card
automatically.
When selected for play, files and folders (Folder Search, File
Search or Folder Select) are accessed in the order they were
written by the CD writer. As a result, the order in which they
are expected to be played may not match the order in which
they are actually played. You may be able to set the order in
which MP3/WMA files are to be played by writing them onto a
medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning with
play sequence numbers such as "01" to "99".
MP3/WMA Media and File
Requirements
This player allows you to play back MP3 and WMA files
recorded onto CD-R/RWs, DVD+R/RWs, and DVD-R/RWs.
For CD-RW discs, please make sure it is formatted using the
full method and not the quick method to prevent illegal disc
operation.

disc readability problems may occur.
To remove the card, first press the SRC button (6) to switch to
another mode and stop SD playback. Pull the SD card out to
remove it.
MP3 Format Compatibility
The file naming formats listed below are compatible with this
unit:
Loading a USB Device
1. Locate the USB jack located on the MediaLink4.

ISO 9660 – file name: 12 characters, file extension: 3
characters
ISO 9660 – file name: 31 characters, file extension: 3

Joliet – 64 characters
MediaLink
If the file or folder name does not conform to ISO 9660 file
system standards, it may not be displayed or played back
correctly. Use the following settings when compressing audio
data for your MP3 disc:
3.5mm - Audio
VIDEO
LEFT

USB JACK
•
•
Transfer Bit Rate: 128kbps
Sampling Frequency: 48kHz
2. Insert the USB device into the USB jack. The unit will
read the audio media files on the USB device

About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless radio connectivity
technology that is developed as a cable replacement for
mobile phones, handheld PCs and other devices. Bluetooth
operates in 2.4 GHz frequency range and transmits voice and
data at speeds up to 1 megabit per second. Bluetooth was
launched by a special interest group (SIG) comprised of
Ericsson Inc., Intel Corp., Nokia Corp., Toshiba and IBM in
1998, and it is currently developed by nearly 2,000
companies worldwide. The Bluetooth word mark and logos
are owned by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such
marks by Audiovox Corporation is under license. Other
trademarks and trade names are those of their respective
owners.

Care and Maintenance
1. Use only a clean silicone cloth and neutral detergent to
clean the front panel or monitor. A rough cloth and non-
neutral detergent (such as alcohol) may result in
scratching or discoloration.
2. Do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.
3. If the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a
protective circuit automatically stops play of the disc. If
this occurs, allow the unit to cool before operating the
player again.
4. Never insert anything other than a 5” (12 cm) disc into
the player as the mechanism can be damaged by
foreign objects.
5. Do not attempt to use a 3” (8 cm) CD-Single disc in this
unit, either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the
player and/or disc may occur. Such damage is not
covered by the Warranty on this product.
6. The CD player may not operate properly in extreme hot
or cold. If such conditions occur, allow the interior of the
vehicle to reach a normal temperature before using
player.
7. When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or
under damp conditions, condensation may appear on
the LCD panel. Should this occur, the screen will not
operate properly until the moisture has evaporated.
8. We suggest you use a cleaning disc in this unit more
frequently than in the unit in your home due to the
environmental conditions of the vehicle.
