CD Messages
CHECK CD: If this message displays and/or
the CD comes out, it could be for one of the
following reasons:
• It is very hot. When the temperature returns
to normal, the CD should play.
• You are driving on a very rough road.
When the road becomes smoother,
the CD should play.
• The CD is dirty, scratched, wet,
or upside down.
• The air is very humid. If so, wait about
an hour and try again.
• There could have been a problem while
burning the CD.
• The label could be caught in the CD player.
If the CD is not playing correctly, for any
other reason, try a known good CD.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot
be corrected, contact your dealer/retailer. If the
radio displays an error message, write it down and
provide it to your dealer/retailer when reporting
the problem.
Using an MP3
MP3 CD-R Disc
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a personal
computer:
• Make sure the MP3 files are recorded on a
CD-R disc.
• Do not mix standard audio and MP3 files
on one disc.
• Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl
extension, other file extensions might not work.
• Files can be recorded with a variety of fixed
or variable bit rates. Song title, artist name,
and album are displayed by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
• Create a folder structure that makes it easy
to find songs while driving. Organize songs
by albums using one folder for each album.
Each folder or album should contain 18 songs
or less.
• Make sure to finalize the disc when burning an
MP3 disc, using multiple sessions. It is usually
better to burn the disc all at once.
