Disc Formats The Blu-ray™ Disc player is capable of the playing the following types of discs (12 mm or 8 mm diameter): • BD: BDMV (Profile 1.1), BDAV (Profile 1.1), • DVD: DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, AVCREC, AVCHD, • CD: CD-DA, VCD, CD-TEXT • DVD/CD: MP3, WMA, AAC, DivX (versions 3 – 6)

DVD Region Codes The Blu-ray™ Disc player and many DVD discs are coded by geographic region. These region codes must


match in order for the disc to play. If the region code for the DVD disc does not match the region code for the player, the disc will not play. DVD Audio Support When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the Blu-ray™ Disc player, the DVD-Audio title on the disc is played by default (most DVD-Audio discs also have a Video title, but the Video title is ignored). All multi-channel program material is automatically mixed down to two channels, which may result in a lowered apparent volume level. If you increase the volume level to account for this change in level, remember to lower the volume before changing the disc or to another mode. Recorded Discs The Blu-ray™ Disc player will play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a CD-ROM containing MP3 or WMA files. The player will


also play DVD-Video content recorded to a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc. DVD-ROM discs (either pressed or re- corded) are not supported. If you record a disc using a personal computer, there may be cases where the Blu-ray™ Disc player may not be able to play some or the entire disc, even if it is recorded in a compatible format and is playable on other players. To help avoid playback problems, use the following guide- lines when recording discs. • Open sessions are ignored.

• For CD Data (or CD-ROM) discs, always use the ISO-9660 (Level 1 or Level 2), Joliet, or Romeo format. Other formats (such as UDF, HFS, or others) are not supported. • The player recognizes a maximum of 512 files and 99

the Video_TS portion of the disc.


If you are still having trouble writing a disc that is playable in the Blu-ray™ Disc player, check with the disc recording software publisher for more information about burning playable discs. The recommended method for labeling recordable discs (CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD-R) is with a permanent marker. Do not use adhesive labels as they may separate from the disc, become stuck, and cause permanent damage to the DVD player.


366 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Compressed Audio Files (MP3 and WMA) The Blu-ray™ Disc player is capable of playing MP3
(MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3) and WMA (Windows Media Audio) files from a CD Data disc (usually a CD-R or CD-RW). • The Blu-ray™ Disc player always uses the file exten- sion to determine the audio format, so MP3 files must always end with the extension ⬙.mp3⬙ or ⬙.MP3⬙ and WMA files must always end with the extension ⬙.wma⬙ or ⬙.WMA⬙. To prevent incorrect playback, do not use these extensions for any other types of files. • For MP3 files, only version 1 ID3 tag data (such as • Any file that is copy protected (such as those down- loaded from many online music stores) will not play.

• Other compression formats such as AAC, MP3 Pro, Ogg Vorbis, and ATRAC3 will not play. The Blu-ray™ player will automatically skip the file and begin play- ing the next available file. • If you are creating your own files, the recommended fixed bit rate for MP3 files is between 96 and 192Kbps and the recommended fixed bit rate for WMA files is between 64 and 192Kbps. Variable bit rates are also the recommended supported. For both formats, sample rate is either 44.1kHz or 48kHz. • To change the current file, use the remote control’s or Blu-ray™ Disc player’s 䉱 button to advance to the next file, or the 䉲 button to return to the start of the current or previous file.


Disc Errors If the Blu-ray™ Disc player is unable to read the disc, a ⬙Disc Error⬙ message is displayed on the rear screen and


Radio displays. A dirty, damaged, or incompatible disc format are all potential causes for a ⬙Disc Error⬙ message. If a disc has a damaged track which results in audible or visible errors that persists for two seconds, the Blu-ray™ Disc player will attempt to continue playing the disc by skipping forward one to three seconds at a time. If the end of the disc is reached, the Blu-ray™ Disc player will return to the beginning of the disc and attempt to play the start of the first track. The Blu-ray™ Disc player may shut down during ex- tremely hot conditions, such as when the vehicle’s inte- rior temperature is above 120° F (48.9° C). When this occurs, the player will display ⬙High Temp⬙ and will shut off the Rear Seat displays until a safe temperature is reached. This shutdown is necessary to protect the optics of the Blu-ray™ Disc player.

378 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL adjust the blower and airflow mode settings. Also, make sure to select only Panel, Bi-Level or Floor modes. NOTE: • If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side glass, • If your air conditioning performance seems lower than expected, check the front of the A/C condenser (lo- cated in front of the radiator), for an accumulation of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray from behind the radiator and through the condenser. Fabric front fascia protectors may reduce airflow to the condenser, reducing air conditioning performance.


MAX A/C MAX A/C sets the control for maximum cooling perfor- mance.


Press and release to toggle between MAX A/C and the prior settings. The soft-key illuminates when MAX A/C is ON. In MAX A/C, the blower level and mode position can be adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings will cause the MAX A/C operation to switch to the prior settings and the MAX A/C indicator will turn off. Recirculation


When outside air contains smoke, odors, or high humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired, you may wish to recirculate interior air by pressing the Recirculation control button. The recirculation indicator will illuminate when this button is selected. Push the button a second time to turn off the Recirculation mode and allow outside air into the vehicle.


NOTE: In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may lead to excessive window fogging. The recirculation feature may be unavailable (soft button greyed out) if conditions exist that could create fogging on the inside of the windshield. On systems with Manual Climate Con- trols, the Recirculation mode is not allowed in Defrost mode to improve window clearing operation. Recircula- tion will be disabled automatically if this mode is se- lected. Attempting to use Recirculation while in this mode will cause the LED in the control button to blink and then turn off.
