Operating instructions

• The VES is able to eject the disk at any time by
pressing the remote or faceplate eject button. The VES
will be able to load a disk when the key is in either
ignition on or accessory on position.
• When a CD is loaded into the VES, it will automati-
cally start playing the music tracks. If a DVD movie is
loaded, the movie will start automatically within 10
seconds after the main DVD menu is displayed if the
disc supports the auto play feature. If the disk contains
MP3 files, it will play the first file in it (9first file9
meaning the file that is first in the order it was
recorded onto the disk). If the first file happens to be a
9folder9, then the first file in that folder will be played
first. The VES is able to play MP3 files in a sequential
9play list9 with ID3 tags displayed on the screen. An
example of MP3 display is shown in figure 8.
• The VES has a 9MODE9 button to switch between
different sources. The system will cycle through avail-
able MODES, captured in the VES, based on devices
installed in the vehicle. This MODE button is on the
VES faceplate and remote control. The current active
mode corresponds to an active tab displayed on the
VES display. The VES and radio are capable of com-
municating with each other. This allows the VES to
output radio audio to the headphones and the radio to
output VES audio to the vehicle speakers. When the
radio and VES are in shared mode, the same audio
source is heard in the headphones and vehicle speak-
ers simultaneously. The available modes for VES are:
• VES: Disk Player (DVD/CD/MP3) or VES Aux Port
• Tuner (AM/FM) from radio
• CD (if available) from radio
• TAPE (if available) from radio
