Operating your audio system with MP3-formatted discs

Your MP3 system recognizes MP3 discs upon insertion and provides you
with two ways to listen to these discs:
Flat file mode– This mode ignores any folders on the discs and plays

all MP3 files found in any folder on the disc exactly as if there were
no folders on the disc.

When in flat file mode press

/

to access the previous/next

track.

Directory mode– This mode finds all of the folders on the disc and

then allows you to pick any folder on the disc and play only the MP3
files in that folder.

When in directory mode press

/

to access the previous/next

MP3 file in the current folder only.

To change directories (folders), press MENU and then press

/

to select the desired directory (folder).

Changing between flat file mode and directory mode

Your radio MP3 system will default to directory mode when an MP3 disc
is first inserted. When the MP3 system is in directory mode, the DIR
icon will be illuminated on the radio display.
• To change from directory mode to flat file mode while playing an MP3

CD: Press MENU until the radio display reads Directory. Then
press

system is now in flat file mode.

• To change from flat file mode to directory mode while playing an MP3

CD: Press MENU until the radio display reads Flat File. Then

MP3 track and folder structure

Your MP3 system recognizes MP3 individual tracks and folder structure
as follows:
• There are two different modes for MP3 disc playback: MP3 directory

mode (system default) and MP3 flat file mode. For more information
on directory and flat file mode, refer to Sample MP3 structure
following.

• MP3 flat file mode ignores any folder structure on the MP3 disc. The

player numbers each MP3 track on the disc (noted by the .mp3 file
extension) from T001 to a maximum of T255.
