SOFT TOP (FOUR-DOOR MODELS) Please visit the owner’s section of Jeep.com for instruc- tional videos.


204 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE


CAUTION!


The soft top is not designed to carry any additional loads such as roof racks, spare tires, building, hunt- ing, or camping supplies, and/or luggage, etc. Also, it was not designed as a structural member of the vehicle, and thus cannot properly carry any addi- tional loads other than environmental (rain, snow, etc.).


If the temperature is below 72°F (24°C) and/or the top has been folded down for a period of time, the top will appear to have shrunk when you raise it, making it difficult to put up. This is caused by a natural contraction of the vinyl coating on the fabric top. Place the vehicle in a warm area. Pull steadily on the top fabric. The vinyl will stretch back to its original size and


the top can then be snapped into place. If the tempera- ture is 41°F (5°C) or below, do not attempt to put the top down or roll the rear or side curtains.


CAUTION!


• Do not run a fabric top through an automatic car wash. Window scratches and wax buildup may result. • Do not lower the top when the temperature is below 41°F (5°C). Damage to the top may result. • Do not lower the top when the windows are dirty. • Do not move your vehicle until the top has been either fully attached to the windshield frame, or fully lowered. • Do not lower the top with the windows installed.


Grit may scratch the window.


Window and top damage may occur.

CAUTION! (Continued)


• Refer to “Appearance Care for Fabric Top Models” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further infor- mation. It contains important information on cleaning and caring for your vehicle’s fabric top. • Do not use any tools (screwdrivers, etc.) to pry or force any of the clamps, clips, or retainers securing the soft top. Do not force or pry the soft top framework when opening or closing. Damage to the top may result.


WARNING!


• Do not drive the vehicle with the rear window curtain up unless the side curtains are also open. Dangerous exhaust gases which can kill could enter the vehicle.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 205


WARNING! (Continued)


• The fabric upper doors and fabric top are designed only for protection against the elements. Do not rely on them to contain occupants within the vehicle or to protect against injury during an accident. Remember, always wear seat belts.


CAUTION!


Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior water damage, stains or mildew on the top material: • It is recommended that the top be free of water prior to opening it. Operating the top, opening a door or lowering a window while the top is wet may allow water to drip into the vehicle’s interior. (Continued)


206 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE


CAUTION! (Continued)


• Careless handling and storage of the soft top may damage the seals, causing water to leak into the vehicle’s interior. • The soft top must be positioned properly to ensure sealing. Improper installation can cause water to leak into the vehicle’s interior.

246 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS


1. Fuel Gauge The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank. NOTE: When the ignition switch is turned to OFF, the fuel gauge and temperature gauge may not show accu- rate readings. When the engine is not running, turn the ignition switch to ON to obtain accurate readings. 2. Charging System Light


This light shows the status of the electrical charg- ing system. The light should come on when the ignition switch is first turned ON, and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light stays on or comes on while driving, turn off some of the vehicle’s non-essential electrical devices or increase engine speed (if at idle). If the charging system light remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging system. Obtain SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. See an autho- rized dealer.


If jump starting is required, refer to “Jump Starting Procedures” in “What To Do In Emergencies”. 3. Front Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped


This indicator will illuminate when the front fog lights are on.


4. Low Fuel Warning Light


When the fuel level reaches approximately 2.8 gal (10.6L) this light will turn on and a single chime will sound.


5. Speedometer Indicates vehicle speed. 6. Front Axle Lock Indicator — If Equipped


Indicates when the front axle lock has been activated.


7. Seat Belt Reminder Light


A warning chime and an indicator light will alert you to buckle the seat belts. When the belt is buckled, the chime will stop, but the light will stay on for about six seconds, until it times out. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know Before Start- ing Your Vehicle” for further information. 8. Turn Signal Indicators


The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is operated. A tone will chime if the turn signals are left on for more than 1 mile (1.6 km). 9. Oil Pressure Warning Light


This light indicates low engine oil pressure. The light should turn on momentarily when the engine is started, if the bulb does not come on, have the system checked by an authorized dealer. If the light turns on


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 247
while driving, stop the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound when this light turns on. Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is corrected. This light does not indicate how much oil is in the engine. The engine oil level must be checked under the hood. 10. High Beam Indicator


This indicator shows that the high beam head- lights are on. Push the multifunction control lever away from you to switch the headlights to high beam. Pull the lever towards you to switch the headlights back to low beam. If the driver’s door is open, and the headlights or park lights are left on, the high beam indicator light will remain illuminated and a chime will sound.


248 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 11. Brake Warning Light


This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake application. If the brake light turns on, it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir. If the light remains on when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system malfunction or that a problem with the Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Program (ESP) sys- tem. In this case, the light will remain on until the condition has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.


The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capac- ity in the event of a failure to a portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has dropped below a specified level. The light will remain on until the cause is corrected. NOTE: The light may flash momentarily during sharp cornering maneuvers, which change fluid level condi- tions. The vehicle should have service performed, and the brake fluid level checked. If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is neces- sary.


WARNING!


Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have an accident. Have the vehicle checked immediately.


Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), are also equipped with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required. Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by turning the ignition switch from the OFF position to the ON position. The light should illuminate for approxi- mately two seconds. The light should then turn off unless the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected by an authorized dealer.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 249
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in the ON position. NOTE: This light shows only that the parking brake is applied. It does not show the degree of brake application. 12. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light


After the ignition is turned on, the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) light illuminates to indicate function check at vehicle start-up. If the light remains on after start-up or comes on and stays on at road speeds, it may indicate that the ABS has detected a malfunction or has become inoperative. The system reverts to standard non-anti-lock brakes. If both the Brake Warning Light and the ABS Warning Light are on, see an authorized dealer immediately. Refer to “Anti-Lock Brake System” in “Starting And Operat- ing”.


250 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 13. Airbag Warning Light


This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is either not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, then have the system inspected at an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for further information. 14. Rear Axle Lock Indicator — If Equipped


This light indicates when the rear axle lock has been activated.


15. Tachometer Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM).


CAUTION!


Do not operate the engine with the tachometer pointer in the red area. Engine damage will occur.


16. Engine Temperature Warning Light


This light warns of an overheated engine condi- tion. If the engine is critically hot, a warning chime will sound 10 times. After the chime turns off, the engine will still be critically hot until the light goes out. 17. Vehicle Security Light — If Equipped


This light will flash at a fast rate for approxi- mately 15 seconds, when the vehicle security alarm is arming, and then will flash slowly until the vehicle is disarmed.


18. Temperature Gauge The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera- ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily. The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher tempera- ture when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, or when towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.


CAUTION!


Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. If temperature gauge reads “H” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on the “H” and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off immediately, and call an authorized deal- ership for service.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 251


WARNING!


A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer- ship for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the hood yourself, see “Main- taining Your Vehicle”. Follow the warnings under the Cooling System Pressure Cap paragraph.


19. Cruise Indicator


This indicator shows when the electronic speed control system is turned on.


20. 4WD Indicator Light — If Equipped


This light alerts the driver that the vehicle is in the four-wheel drive mode, and the front and rear driveshafts are mechanically locked to- gether forcing the front and rear wheels to

Odometer / Trip Odometer / ECO (Fuel Saver Indicator) Button Press this button to change the display from odometer to either of the two trip odometer settings or the “ECO” display. Trip A or Trip B will appear when in the trip odometer mode. Press and hold the button for two seconds to reset the trip odometer to 0 miles or kilome- ters. The odometer must be in trip mode to reset. 22. Shift Lever Indicator The Shift Lever Indicator is self-contained within the instrument cluster. It displays the gear position of the automatic transmission. 23. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light


Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle


has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illumi- nates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to


maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subse- quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the sys- tem may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 253
tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.


CAUTION!


The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system opera- tion or sensor damage may result when using re- placement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.


254 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 24. Odometer / Trip Odometer Display Area The odometer shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven. The trip odometer shows individual trip mileage. Refer to “Odometer / Trip Odometer / ECO (Fuel Saver Indicator) Button” for additional information. U.S. Federal regulations require that upon transfer of vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. If your odometer needs to be repaired or serviced, the repair technician should leave the odometer reading the same as it was before the repair or service. If s/he cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at zero, and a sticker must be placed in the door jamb stating what the mileage was before the repair or service. It is a good idea for you to make a record of the odometer reading before the repair/ service, so that you can be sure that it is properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker is accurate if the odometer must be reset at zero.

It may also occur when operating the vehicle in a high torque converter slip condition, such as 4-wheel drive operation


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 255
(e.g., snow plowing, off- road operation). If this “HOT- OIL” message turns on, stop the vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster, with the transmission in NEU- TRAL until the message turns off.


CAUTION!


Continuous driving with the Transmission Tempera- ture “HOTOIL” Warning message illuminated will eventually cause severe transmission damage or transmission failure.


WARNING!


Continued operation with the Transmission Tem- perature “HOTOIL” Warning message illuminated could cause the fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot engine or exhaust components causing a fire that may result in personal injury.


256 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL gASCAP If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, a “gASCAP” message will display in the odometer display area. Tighten the fuel filler cap properly and press the TRIP ODOMETER button to turn off the message. If the problem continues, the message will appear the next time the vehicle is started. noFUSE If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is improperly installed, or damaged, a “noFUSE” message will display in the odom- eter display area. For further information on fuses and fuse locations refer to “Fuses” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle”.


CHAngE OIL Message Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system. The “CHANgE OIL” message will flash in the instrument cluster odometer for approximately 12 seconds after a single chime has sounded to indicate the next scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil change indicator system is duty-cycle based, which means the engine oil change interval may fluctuate dependent upon your personal driving style. Unless reset, this message will continue to display each time you turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. To turn off the message temporarily, press and release the Trip Odometer button on the instrument cluster. To reset the oil change indicator system (after performing the scheduled maintenance), refer to the following procedure:


1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Do not start the engine). 2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal slowly three times within 10 seconds. 3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position. If the indicator message illuminates when you NOTE: start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not reset. If necessary repeat this procedure. 25. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)


The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is a part of an Onboard Diagnostic System called OBD II that monitors engine and automatic transmission con- trol systems. The light will illuminate when the ignition is in the ON position, before engine start. If the bulb does not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON, have the condition checked promptly.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 257
Certain conditions such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor quality fuel, etc. may illuminate the light after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several typical driving styles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will not require towing. When the engine is running, the MIL may flash to alert serious conditions that could lead to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. The vehicle should be serviced as soon as possible if this occurs.


CAUTION!


Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause damage to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy and drivability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power loss will soon occur. Immediate service is required.


258 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


WARNING!


A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced above, can reach higher temperatures than in normal operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you drive slowly or park over flammable substances such as dry plants or wood or cardboard, etc. This could result in death or serious injury to the driver, occu- pants or others.


26. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/ Malfunction Indicator Light — If Equipped


The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. It should go out with the engine running. If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this


light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles (kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see your autho- rized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and corrected. NOTE: • The “ESC Off


Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” come on mo- mentarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON. • Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESC system • The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver that caused the ESC activation.


will be ON even if it was turned off previously.


WARNING!


The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot pre- vent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESC cannot prevent acci- dents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ESC- equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reck- less or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others.


27. O/D (Overdrive) Off Indicator Light


This light will illuminate when the O/D OFF button has been selected and overdrive has been turned off. The O/D OFF button is located on the center console.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 259


28. Sway Bar Indicator Light — If Equipped


This indicator will illuminate when the front sway bar is disconnected.


29. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) / Brake Assist System (BAS) Warning Light


The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) / Brake Assist System (BAS) warning light in the in- strument cluster comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. The light should go out with the engine running. If the ESP/BAS warning light comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in either the ESP or the BAS system. If this light stays illuminated, have the ESP and BAS checked at an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Electronic Brake Control System” in “Starting And Operating” for further infor- mation.


260 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


WARNING!


If a warning light remains on the system may not be working and you will not have the benefit of ESP or BAS. Under certain driving conditions, where ESP or BAS would be beneficial, you - if you have not adjusted your driving speeds and stopping in or to account for the lack of the feature, may be in acci- dent.


30. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light


This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. If a problem is detected while the engine is run- ning, the light will either stay on or flash depending on the nature of the problem. Cycle the ignition key when the vehicle is safely and completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in the PARK position. The light should turn off. If the light remains on


with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light continues to flash when the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle, or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing. The light will come on when the ignition is first turned ON and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting, have the system checked by an autho- rized dealer. 31.

If the vehicle is equipped with a Chrysler NOTE: Uconnect™ gps (Navigation Radio), the NAV system will provide the compass direction, and the variance and calibration menus will be unavailable. The compass will perform accurately, based on GPS signals instead of the Earth’s magnetic field. This display provides the outside temperature and one of eight compass readings to indicate the direction the vehicle is facing.


264 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


WARNING!


Even if the display still reads a few degrees above 32°F ( 0°C), the road surface may be icy, particularly in woods or on bridges. Drive carefully under such conditions to prevent an accident and possible per- sonal injury or property damage.


Compass Calibration The compass on your vehicle will automatically calibrate when new, and will continuously adjust itself over the life of the vehicle. If the CAL indicator is on (or flashing), drive slowly (under 10 mph [16 kmh]) in an open area until the CAL indicator is off. NOTE: • A good calibration requires a level surface and an environment free from large metallic objects such as buildings, bridges, underground cables, railroad tracks, etc.


• Magnetic and battery powered devices, (such as cell phones, iPod’s, radar detectors, PDA’s and laptops) should be kept away from the top of the instrument panel. This is where the compass module is located and such devices may interfere and cause false com- pass readings.


Automatic Compass Calibration The self-calibrating feature of the compass eliminates the need to calibrate the compass for normal conditions. During a short initial period, the compass may appear erratic and the CAL symbol will appear (blinking) on the display. After the vehicle has completed at least one complete circle under 5 mph (8 km/h) in an area free from large metal objects, calibration will be complete when the CAL symbol is extinguished. After initial calibration, the compass will continue to automatically update this calibration whenever the ve- hicle is in motion.


Manual Compass Calibration


NOTE: Before attempting a manual compass calibra- tion, the engine must be running and the transmission in the PARK position (if equipped). If the compass appears erratic or inaccurate and the variance has been properly set, you may wish to manu- ally recalibrate the compass. To manually calibrate the compass: 1. First enter the variance mode. Press and hold the left button (located on the instrument cluster) for approxi- mately 10 seconds to enter the variance mode, and release the button when the VAR (Compass Variance) symbol appears. 2. The current variance value will also be displayed. Once in the variance mode, it is necessary to release the button, and then press and hold it again (approximately 10 seconds) until CAL is displayed (solid, not blinking).


is no longer displayed,


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 265
3. Manual compass calibration has been initiated. Drive the vehicle slowly in one or more circles under 5 mph (8 km/h) in an area free from large metal objects until the CAL symbol is extinguished. When the CAL symbol the compass is calibrated and should display correct head- ings. Verify proper calibration by checking North (N), South (S), East (E), and West (W). If the compass does not appear accurate, repeat the calibration procedure in an- other area. Compass Variance (VAR) Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic North and Geographic North. To ensure compass accu- racy, the compass variance should be properly set accord- ing to the variance map for the zone where the vehicle will be driven. When properly set, the compass will automatically account for this difference.


266 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Setting the Compass Variance Refer to the variance map for the correct compass vari- ance zone. To check the variance zone, the ignition must be ON. Press and hold the left button (located on the instrument cluster) for approximately 10 seconds to enter the variance mode and release the button when the VAR symbol appears. The current variance value will also be displayed. To change the zone, press the left button once to increment the zone. The default is Zone 8. After Zone 15, the values will wrap around to Zone 1. When the correct zone is displayed (per the Compass Variance Zone Map) for the zone that the vehicle is located in, wait for about five seconds; then the trip computer will store the variance value in memory and the compass will resume normal operation. NOTE: The U.S./Metric display will change from En- glish to Metric or Metric to English before the VAR


symbol appears, however, it will revert back to its original setting after programming the compass func- tions.

Notes On Playing MP3/WMA Files The radio can play MP3/WMA files; however, acceptable MP3/WMA file recording media and formats are limited. When writing MP3/WMA files, pay attention to the following restrictions. Supported Media (Disc Types) The MP3/WMA file recording media supported by the radio are CDDA, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3,WMA, DVD Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, and CDDA+MP3.


278 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Supported Medium Formats (File Systems) The medium formats supported by the radio are ISO 9660
Level 1 and Level 2 and includes the Joliet extension. When reading discs recorded using formats other than ISO 9660 Level 1 and Level 2, the radio may fail to read files properly and may be unable to play the file nor- mally. UDF and Apple HFS formats are not supported. The radio uses the following limits for file systems: • Maximum number of directory levels: 8
• Maximum number of files: 255
• Maximum number of folders: 100
• Maximum number of characters in file/folder names: • Level 1: 12 (including a separator ⬙.⬙ and a three- • Level 2: 31 (including a separator ⬙.⬙ and a three-

character extension)


Multisession disc formats are supported by the radio. Multisession discs may contain combinations of normal CD audio tracks and computer files (including MP3/ WMA files). Discs created with an option such as ⬙keep disc open after writing⬙ are most likely multisession discs. The use of multisession for CD audio or MP3/ WMA playback may result in longer disc loading times. If a disc contains multi-formats, such as CD audio and MP3/WMA tracks, the radio will only play the MP3/ WMA tracks on that disc. Supported MP3/WMA File Formats The radio will recognize only files with the *.MP3/WMA extension as MP3/WMA files. Non-MP3/WMA files named with the *.MP3/WMA extension may cause play- back problems. The radio is designed to recognize the file as an invalid MP3/WMA and will not play the file.


When using the MP3/WMA encoder to compress audio data to an MP3/WMA file, the bit rate and sampling frequencies in the following table are supported. In addition, variable bit rates (VBR) are also supported. The majority of MP3/WMA files use a 44.1 kHz sampling rate and a 192, 160, 128, 96 or VBR bit rates.
