Main Menu Table Of Contents Audio System (Models without navigation system) This audio system can also play CD-Rs and CD-RWs compressed in MP3 or WMA formats. When playing a disc in MP3, you will see ''MP3'' in the display. In WMA format, ''WMA'' will appear in the display. A disc can support more than 99 folders, and each folder can hold up to 255 playable files. When there are more than 99 folders in a disc, the center display only shows two digits. NOTE: If a file on an MP3 or WMA disc is protected by digital rights management (DRM), the audio unit displays FORMAT, and then skips to the next file. Video CDs and DVDs do not work in this unit. The specifications for compatible MP3 files are: Sampling frequency: 32/44.1/48 kHz (MPEG1) 16/22.05/24 kHz (MPEG2) Bitrate: 32/40/48/56/64/80/96/112/128/ 160/192/224/256/320 kbps (MPEG1) 8/16/24/32/40/48/56/64/80/96/ 112/128/160 kbps (MPEG2) Compatible with variable bitrate and multi-session Maximum layers (including ROOT): 8 layers The specifications for compatible WMA files are: Bitrate: 48/64/80/96/128/160/192 kbps Sampling frequency: 32/44.1/48 kHz Compatible with variable bitrate and multi-session Maximum layers (including ROOT): 8 layers To Load a Disc Insert a disc about halfway into the disc slot.
