Do not use discs with adhesive labels.

The label can curl up and cause the disc to jam in the unit.

This audio system can also play CD-Rs and CD-RWs compressed in MP3 or WMA format. When playing a disc in MP3, you will see ‘‘MP3’’ in the display. In WMA format, ‘‘WMA’’ will appear in the display. The disc, folder and track numbers are displayed. You can select up to 255 folders or tracks.

Depending on the software the files were made with, it may not be possible to play some files, or display some text data.

Video CDs and DVDs do not work in this unit.

NOTE: If a file on a WMA disc is protected by digital rights management (DRM), the audio unit displays UNSUPPORTED, and then skips to the next file.

Loading Discs

Your vehicle’s in-dash disc changer holds up to six discs.

1. Press the LOAD button until you hear a beep and see ‘‘LOAD’’ in the display. To load only one disc, press and release the LOAD button.

2. The disc number for an empty position begins blinking.

3. Insert the disc into the disc slot when the green disc load indicator comes on. Insert it only about halfway; the drive will pull it in the rest of the way. You will see ‘‘BUSY’’ in the display while the disc load indicator turns red and blinks as the disc is loaded.

You cannot load and play 3-inch (8-cm) discs in this unit.

4. When the disc load indicator turns green and ‘‘LOAD’’ appears in the display again, insert the next disc in the slot. Do not try to insert a disc until ‘‘LOAD’’ appears. You could damage the audio unit.

5. Repeat this until all six positions are loaded. If you are not loading all six positions, the system begins playing the last disc loaded.

You can also load a disc into an empty position while a disc is playing by pressing the appropriate preset button. The system stops playing the current disc and starts the loading sequence. It then plays the disc just loaded.
