semble the player or alter any of its parts since you may be exposed to  
laser rays and dangerous voltages.

MP3 and WMA files  
MP3 (MPEG Audio LAYER3) is a standard audio compression format.  
Files can be compressed to approximately 1/10 of their original size by using  
MP3 compression.  
WMA (Windows MediaTM Audio) is a Microsoft audio compression format.  
This format compresses audio data to a size smaller than that of the MP3  
format.  
There is a limit to the MP3 and WMA file standards and to the media/formats  
recorded by them that can be used.

Compatible media  
Media that can be used for MP3 and WMA playback are CD-Rs and CD-  
RWs.  
Playback in some instances may not be possible, depending on the status  
of the CD-R or CD-RW. Playback may not be possible or the audio may  
jump if the disc is scratched or marked with fingerprints.  
Compatible disc formats  
The following disc formats can be used.  
• Disc formats: CD-ROM Mode 1 and Mode 2  
CD-ROM XA Mode 2, Form 1 and Form 2  
• File formats: ISO9660 Level 1, Level 2, (Romeo, Joliet)  
MP3 and WMA files written in any format other than those listed above  
may not play correctly, and their file names and folder names may not  
be displayed correctly.  
Items related to standards and limitations are as follows.  
• Maximum directory hierarchy: 8 levels  
• Maximum length of folder names/file names: 32 characters  
• Maximum number of folders: 192 (including the root)  
• Maximum number of files per disc: 255  
252  
3-2. Using the audio system  
File names  
The only files that can be recognized as MP3/WMA and played are those  
with the extension .mp3 or .wma.  
Multi-sessions  
As the audio system is compatible with multi-sessions, it is possible to play  
discs that contain MP3 and WMA files. However, only the first session can  
be played.  
ID3 and WMA tags  
ID3 tags can be added to MP3 files, making it possible to record the track  
title and artist name, etc.  
The system is compatible with ID3 Ver. 1.0, 1.1, and Ver. 2.2, 2.3 ID3 tags.  
(The number of characters is based on ID3 Ver. 1.0 and 1.1.)  
3
WMA tags can be added to WMA files, making it possible to record the  
track title and artist name in the same way as with ID3 tags.  
MP3 and WMA playback  
When a disc containing MP3 or WMA files is inserted, all files on the disc  
are first checked. Once the file check is finished, the first MP3 or WMA file  
is played. To make the file check finish more quickly, we recommend you  
do not write in any files other than MP3 or WMA files or create any unnec-  
essary folders.  
If the discs contain a mixture of music data and MP3 or WMA format data,  
only music data can be played.  
253  
3-2. Using the audio system  
Extensions  
If the file extensions .mp3 and .wma are used for files other than MP3 and  
WMA files, they will be mistakenly recognized and played as MP3 and  
WMA files. This may result in large amounts of interference and damage  
to the speakers.  
Playback  
To play MP3 file with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit  
rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.  
• CD-R or CD-RW playback may not be possible in some instances,  
depending on the characteristics of the disc.  
• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for  
MP3 and WMA files on the market, and depending on the status of the  
encoding and the file format, poor sound quality or noise at the start of  
playback may result. In some cases, playback may not be possible at  
all.  
• When files other than MP3 or WMA files are recorded on a disc, it may  
take more time to recognize the disc and in some cases, playback may  
not be possible at all.  
• Microsoft, Windows, and Windows Media are the registered trade-  
marks of Microsoft Corporation in the U.S. and other countries.

Press and release the vehicle’s programmed HomeLink but-  
ton twice. The garage door may open.  
If the garage door opens, the programming process is complete. If  
the door does not open, press and release the button a third time.  
This third press and release will complete the programming process  
by opening the garage door.  
The ceiling mounted garage door opener motor should now recog-  
nize the HomeLinktransceiver and operate the garage door.

Calibrating the compass  
Samoa: 5 Guam: 8 Saipan: 8  
The direction display deviates from the true direction determined by  
the earth’s magnetic field. The amount of deviation varies according  
to the geographic position of the vehicle.  
If you cross over a map boundary shown in illustration, the compass will  
deviate.  
To obtain higher precision or perfect calibration, refer to the following.

Press the switch, and referring to the map above, select the  
number of the zone where you are.  
Wait a few seconds until the compass direction is displayed.  
The calibration is complete.  
Circling calibration  
If “CAL” appears on the display,  
drive the vehicle at 5 mph (8 km/h)  
or less in a circle until a direction  
is displayed.  
If there is not enough space to  
drive in a circle, drive around the  
block until the direction is dis-  
played.

Conditions unfavorable to correct operation  
The compass may not show the correct direction in the following conditions:  
The vehicle is stopped immediately after turning.  
The vehicle is on an inclined surface.  
The vehicle is in a place where the earth’s magnetic field is subject to  
interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground car park/parking  
lot, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof car park/parking lot, near  
an intersection, near a large vehicle, etc.).  
The vehicle has become magnetized.  
(There is a magnet or metal object near the inside rear view mirror.)  
The battery has been disconnected.  
A door is open.

CAUTION  
While driving  
Do not adjust the display.  
Be sure to adjust the display only when the vehicle is stopped.  
When doing the circling calibration  
Be sure to secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the  
neighborhood. Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling  
calibration.

NOTICE  
To avoid the compass malfunctions  
Do not place magnets or any metal objects near the inside rear view mirror.  
Doing this may cause a malfunction of the compass sensor.  
To ensure normal operation of the compass  
Do not perform circling calibration of the compass in a place where the  
earth’s magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields.  
During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon roof, power win-  
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.
