MP3/WMA/iPod 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  
MP3/iPod User Interface  
The on-screen indicators and touch key areas for MP3  
playback are outlined below.  
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.

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.
