Global Positioning System (GPS)The navigation system determines the position ofyour vehicle by using satellite signals, variousvehicle signals, and map data.

At times, other interferences such as the satellitecondition, road configuration, the condition ofthe vehicle and/or other circumstances caninterfere with the navigation system’s ability todetermine the accurate position of the vehicle.

The GPS shows the current position of yourvehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellitesof the United States Department of Defense.When your vehicle is not receiving signals fromthe satellites, a symbol will appear on themap screen. Refer to Symbols on page 22.

• Objects are located on the rear shelf.

• Satellites are being repaired or improved.

• After-market glass tinting has been applied tothe vehicle’s rear windshield.

Notice: Do not apply after-market glass tintingto the vehicle’s windows. Glass tinting willinterfere with the system’s ability to receiveGPS signals and cause the system tomalfunction. You might have to replace thewindow to correct the problem. This wouldnot be covered by your warranty.

For more information if you are experiencinga problem, see If the System Needs Service onpage 55 and Problems with Route Guidanceon page 55.

Using a Compressed Audio CD/DVDCompressed Audio CD/DVD FormatThere are guidelines that must be met, whencreating an MP3, WMA, or mixed disc. If theguidelines are not met when recording a burneddisc, the disc may not play. The guidelines are:

• ID3 tag information is displayed by the radioif it is available. The radio supports ID3 taginformation v1.0, v1.1, and v2.0. The radio willdisplay a filename, song name, artist name,album name, and directory name.

• Maximum 32 characters, including spaces,in a file or folder name.

• The recommended maximum number offolders is 100 with a maximum hierarchy ofthree folders.

• Create a folder structure that makes it easy tofind songs while driving. Organize songs byalbums using one folder for each album.

• All playlist files (.m3u or.pls) must be removedfrom disc contents. Playlists are not supported.

• It is recommended that there is a maximum of192 files on a CD-R(W) disc.

• It is recommended that there is a maximum of200 files on a DVD+R(W) disc.

• The files can be recorded on a CD-R(W) orDVD+R(W)

• Copy protected WMA files are not supported.

Scanning Compressed Audio DiscScanning a compressed audio disc categorizesand allows sorting of songs by folder artistor album.

• Select center folder/artist/album button toinitiate scanning mode. The radio will play anda progress bar will display.

• Background scanning will occur with the radioon and the compressed audio disc insertedbut not being played.

• Only the first 200 songs will appear in thecompressed audio music navigator.

• Scanning time will vary depending on thenumber of files and folders on the disc.

70

Root DirectoryThe root directory will be treated as a folder. If theroot directory has compressed audio files, thedirectory will be displayed as ROOT. All filescontained directly under the root directory will beaccessed prior to any root directory folders.

Empty Directory or FolderIf a root directory or a folder exists somewherein the file structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no compressed files directlybeneath them, the player will advance to the nextfolder in the file structure that contains compressedaudio files and the empty folder will not bedisplayed or numbered.

No FolderWhen the disc contains only compressed files,the files will be located under the root folder.The next and previous folder functions will haveno function on a disc that was recorded withoutfolders. When displaying the name of the folder theradio will display ROOT.

Order of PlayTracks will be played in the following order:

• The radio will not support playlist files.

• Order of play differs depending if thecompressed audio disc is fully scanned orunscanned. See “Scanning Compressed AudioDisc” previously in this section.

• When playing an unscanned disc, the nextand previous screen buttons may berequired to switch away from the current folderwhen quickly seeking rather than allowingthe last song of a folder to play to completion.

• Play will begin from the first track underthe root directory. When all tracks fromthe root directory have been played, playwill continue from files according to theirnumerical listing. After playing the last trackfrom the last folder, play will begin again at thefirst track of the first folder or root directory.

• A scanned compressed audio disc inartist/album modes will only play songs withinthe current category. The next and previousscreen buttons will change to differentartists or albums.

71

When play enters a new folder, the display willnot automatically show the new folder name.The new track name will appear on the display.

File System and NamingThe song name that will display will be the songname that is contained in the ID3 tag. If thesong name is not present in the ID3 tag, thenthe radio will display the file name withoutthe extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.

Track names longer than 32 characters orfour pages will be shortened. The display willnot show parts of words on the last page of textand the extension of the filename will not display.
