● If you are using an iPod (3rd Generation with Dock connector), do not use very long names for the song title, album name or artist name to avoid the iPod resetting itself. iPod is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. ● Do not place the Bluetooth audio device in an area surrounded by metal or far away from the in-vehicle Bluetooth module to prevent tone quality degradation and wireless connection disruption. ● While an audio device is connected through the Bluetooth wireless connection, the battery power of the device may discharge quicker than usual. ● This system supports the Bluetooth Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP, AVRCP). Explanation of terms: ● MP3 - MP3 is short for Moving Pictures Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the most well-known compressed digital audio file format. This format allows for near "CD quality" sound, but at a fraction of the size of normal audio files. MP3 conversion of an audio track from CD-ROM can reduce the file size by approximately a 10:1 ratio with virtually no perceptible loss in quality. MP3 compression removes the redundant and irrelevant parts of a sound signal that the human ear doesn't hear. ● WMA - Windows Media Audio (WMA)* is a compressed audio format created by Microsoft as an alternative to MP3. The WMA codec offers greater file compression than the MP3 codec, enabling storage of more digital audio tracks in the same amount of space when compared to MP3s at the same level of quality. ● Bit rate - Bit rate denotes the number of bits per second used by a digital music file. The size and quality of a compressed digital audio file is determined by the bit rate used when encoding the file. Bluetooth streaming audio (if so equipped) ● Some Bluetooth audio devices may not be recognized by the in-vehicle audio system. ● It is necessary to set up the wireless connection between a compatible Bluetooth audio device and the in-vehicle Bluetooth module before using the Bluetooth audio. ● Operating procedure of the Bluetooth audio will vary depending on the devices.
