Playing MP3-CDs
The basic functions correspond to those of the audio CDs (see previous chapter). However with MP3-
CDs you can select the titles and the interpreters directly. These functions and the other MP3 specific
functions are definitivly dependent on the MP3-CD. Please bear this in mind when creating these CDs
(see the next section).
All conventional codings can be played back. TITLE > INTERPRET > ALBUM NAME > RELEASE YEAR
> COMMENTARY.
Note: Creation of MP3-CDs; ID3TAGs
MP3-CDs like data CDs can contain individual titles or directories. Please bear in mind with the creation of
an MP3-CD that you do not save titles on the same level as directories but rather only in the directory.
A mixture of titles and directories on the same level can result in problems when playing back. With the
creation of the MP3 file you can also save the so called “ID3 tag” (for input we recommend an ID3 tag
editor). This is a block of information that is contained in the MP3 file. This can be, for example, information
about the interpreters, titles, album name, release year and a short commentary. The car radio can read
this block of information and show it in the display.

Replacing the fuse
The car radio is equipped with a 10 A fuse on the rear panel, which blows if a voltage peak or a short
circuit should occur.
•
In this case replace the fuse with one of equal value and of the same type as listed in the technical
data with the same trip characteristics.
•
Before switching the car radio on again remedy the cause of the fuse burnout.
