(b) Tone and balance How good an audio program sounds to you is largely determined by the mix of the treble, midrange, and bass levels. In fact, different kinds of music and vocal programs usually sound better with different mixes of treble, mid-range, and bass. A good balance of the left and right stereo channels and of the front and rear sound lev- els is also important. Keep in mind that if you are listening to a ste- reo recording or broadcast, changing the right/left balance will increase the volume of one group of sounds while decreasing the vol- ume of another.

CAUTION

Conversational speech on some DVDs is recorded at a low volume to empha- size the impact of sound effects. If you adjust the volume assuming that the conversations represent the maximum volume level that the DVD will play, you may be startled by louder sound effects or when you change to a different audio source. The louder sounds may have a significant impact on the human body or pose a driving hazard. Keep this in mind when you adjust the volume.

DVD VIDEO DISC GLOSSARY DVD video discs: Digital versatile Disc that holds video. DVD video discs have adopted “MPEG2”, one of the world standards of digi- tal compression technologies. The picture data is compressed by 1/40 on average and stored. Variable rate encoded technology in which the volume of data assigned to the pic- ture is changed depending on the picture for- mat has also been adopted. Audio data is stored using PCM and Dolby digital, which enables higher quality of sound. Further- more, multi-angle and multi-language fea- tures will also help you enjoy the more ad- vanced technology of DVD video. Viewer restrictions: This feature limits what can be viewed in conformity with a level of re- strictions of the country. The level of restric- tions varies depending on the DVD video disc. Some DVD video discs cannot be played at all, or violent scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes. Level 1: DVD video discs for children can be played. Level 2 - 7: DVD video discs for children and G-rated movie can be played. Level 8: All types of the DVD video discs can be played. Multi-angle feature: You can enjoy the same scene at different angles.

Multi-language feature: You can select a language of the subtitle and audio. Region codes: The region codes are pro- vided on DVD players and DVD discs. If the DVD video disc does not have the same re- gion code as the DVD player, you cannot play the disc on the DVD player. For region codes, see page 188. Audio: This DVD player can play liner PCM, Dolby digital and MPEG audio format DVD. Other decoded type cannot be played. Title and chapter: Video and audio pro- grams stored in DVD video disc are divided in parts by title and chapter. Title: The largest unit of the video and audio programs stored on DVD video discs. Usual- ly, one piece of movie, one album, or one au- dio program is assigned as a title. Chapter: The unit smaller than that of title. A title comprises plural chapters.

Audio/video system operating hints

NOTICE

To ensure correct audio/video system operations: (cid:4) Be careful not to spill beverages over

the audio system.

(cid:4) Do not put anything other than a disc

into the slot.

(cid:4) Do not put anything other than an ap-

propriate disc into the DVD player.

(cid:4) The use of a cellular phone inside or near the vehicle may cause a noise from the speakers of the audio sys- tem which you are listening to. How- ever, this does not indicate a mal- function.

RADIO RECEPTION Usually, a problem with radio reception does not mean there is a problem with your radio — it is just the normal result of conditions outside the vehicle.

AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM

For example, nearby buildings and terrain can interfere with FM reception. Power lines or telephone wires can interfere with AM sig- nals. And of course, radio signals have a lim- ited range. The farther you are from a station, the weaker its signal will be. In addition, re- ception conditions change constantly as your vehicle moves. Here are some common reception problems that probably do not indicate a problem with your radio: FM Fading and drifting stations — Generally, the effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may no- tice fading and drifting, which increase with the distance from the radio transmitter. They are often accompanied by distortion. Multi-path — FM signals are reflective, mak- ing it possible for two signals to reach your an- tenna at the same time. If this happens, the signals will cancel each other out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of reception. Static and fluttering — These occur when sig- nals are blocked by buildings, trees, or other large objects. Increasing the bass level may reduce static and fluttering.

VI

189

AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM

Station swapping — If the FM signal you are listening to is interrupted or weakened, and there is another strong station nearby on the FM band, your radio may tune in the second station until the original signal can be picked up again. AM Fading — AM broadcasts are reflected by the upper atmosphere — especially at night. These reflected signals can interfere with those received directly from the radio station, causing the radio station to sound alternately strong and weak. Station interference — When a reflected sig- nal and a signal received directly from a radio station are very nearly the same frequency, they can interfere with each other, making it difficult to hear the broadcast. Static — AM is easily affected by external sources of electrical noise, such as high ten- sion power lines, lightening, or electrical mo- tors. This results in static.

CARING FOR YOUR CD CHANGER, DVD PLAYER AND DISCS (cid:4) Your CD changer is intended for use with

12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.

(cid:4) Extremely high temperatures can keep your CD changer and DVD player from working. On hot days, use the air condi- tioning to cool the vehicle interior before you use the changer and player.

(cid:4) Bumpy roads or other vibrations may make your CD changer and DVD player skip.

(cid:4) If moisture gets into your CD changer and DVD player, you may not play even though they appear to be working. Re- move the disc from the changer and play- er and wait until it dries.

CAUTION

CD changers and DVD players use an in- visible laser beam which could cause hazardous radiation exposure if di- rected outside the unit. Be sure to oper- ate the changers and players correctly.

(cid:1) Wrong

(cid:4) Handle discs carefully, especially when you are inserting them. Hold them on the edge and do not bend them. Avoid getting fingerprints on them, particularly on the shiny side.

(cid:4) Dirt, scratches, warping, pin holes, or oth- er disc damage could cause the player to skip or to repeat a section of a track. (To see a pin hole, hold the disc up to the light.)

(cid:4) Remove discs from the players when you are not using them. Store them in their plastic cases away from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight.

MP3/WMA FILES (cid:4) MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA (Windows Media Audio) are audio com- pression standards.

(cid:4) The MP3/WMA player can play MP3 and WMA files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD- RW discs. The unit can play disc recordings compat- ible with ISO 9660 level 1 and level 2 and with the Romeo and Joliet file system.

(cid:4) When naming an MP3 or WMA file, add the appropriate file extension (.mp3 or .wma).

(cid:4) The MP3/WMA player plays back files with .mp3 or .wma file extensions as MP3
or WMA files. To prevent noise and play- back errors, use the appropriate file ex- tensions.

(cid:4) The player can play only the first session

using multi-session compatible CDs.

(cid:4) MP3 files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2, and Ver. 2.3 for- mats. The unit cannot display disc title, track title and artist name in other formats. (cid:4) WMA files can contain a WMA tag that is used in the same way as an ID3 tag. WMA tags carry information such as track title, artist name.

(cid:4) The emphasis function is available only when playing MP3/WMA files recorded at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. (The system can play MP3 files with sampling frequencies of 16, 22.05, and 24 kHz. However, the emphasis function is not available for files recorded at these frequencies.)

(cid:4) The sound quality of MP3/WMA files gen- erally improves with higher bit rates. In or- der to achieve a reasonable level of sound quality, discs recorded with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps are recommended. Playable bit rates MP3 files: MPEG1 LAYER3—64 to 320 kbps MPEG2 LSF LAYER3—64 to 160 kbps WMA files: Ver. 7, 8 CBR—48 to 192 kbps Ver. 9 CBR—48 to 320 kbps

(cid:4) The MP3/WMA player does not play back MP3/WMA files from discs recorder using packet write data transfer (UDF format). Discs should be recorded using “pre- mastering” software rather than packet- write software.

(cid:4) M3u playlists are not compatible with the

audio player.

(cid:4) MP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO for- mats are not compatible with the audio player.

AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM

(cid:4) The MP3 player is compatible with VBR

(Variable Bit Rate).

(cid:4) When playing back files recorded as VBR (Variable Bit Rate) files, the play time will not be correctly displayed if fast-forward or reverse operations are used.

(cid:4) It is not possible to check folders that do

not include MP3/WMA files.

(cid:4) MP3/WMA files in folders up to 8 levels deep can be played. However, the start of playback may be delayed when using discs containing numerous levels of fol- ders. For this reason, we recommend creating discs with no more than two lev- els of folders.

(cid:4) It is possible to play up to 192 folders or

255 files on one disc.

TERMS Packet write— This is a general term that describes the pro- cess of writing data on-demand to CD-R, etc., in the same way that data is written to floppy or hard discs. ID3 Tag— This is a method of embedding track-related information in an MP3 file. This embedded in- formation can include the track title, the art- ist’s name, the album title, the music genre, the year of production, comments and other data. The contents can be freely edited using software with ID3 tag editing functions. Al- though the tags are restricted to the number of characters, the information can be viewed when the track is played back. WMA Tag— WMA files can contain a WMA tag that is used in the same way as an ID3 tag. WMA tags carry information such as track title, artist name.

CD-R and CD-RW discs (cid:4) CD-R/CD-R W discs that have not been subject to the “finalizing process” (a pro- cess that allows discs to be played on a conventional CD player) cannot be played.

(cid:4) It may not be possible to play CD-R/CD- RW discs recorded on a music CD record- er or a personal computer because of disc characteristics, scratches or dirt on the disc, or dirt, condensation, etc. on the lens of the unit.

(cid:4) It may not be possible to play discs re- corded on a personal computer depend- ing on the application settings and the en- vironment. Record with the correct format. (For details, contact the appropri- ate application manufacturers of the ap- plications.)

(cid:4) CD-R/CD-R W discs may be damaged by direct exposure to sunlight, high tempera- tures or other storage conditions. The unit may be unable to play some damaged discs.

(cid:4) If you insert a CD-RW disc into the MP3/WMA player, playback will begin more slowly than with a conventional CD or CD-R disc.

(cid:4) Recordings on CD-R/CD-RW cannot be played using the DDCD (Double Density CD) system.

MP3— MP3 is an audio compression standard deter- mined by a working group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Standard Organization). MP3
compresses audio data to about 1/10 the size of that on conventional discs. WMA— WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio compression format developed by Microsoft. It compresses files into a size smaller than that of MP3 files. The decoding formats for WMA files are Ver. 7, 8, and 9.

ISO 9660 format— This is the international standard for the for- matting of CD-ROM folders and files. For the ISO 9660 format, there are two levels of regu- lations. Level 1: The file name is in 8.3 format (8 character file names, with a 3 character file extension. File names must be composed of one-byte capi- tal letters and numbers. The “_” symbol may also be included.) Level 2: The file name can have up to 31 characters (including the separation mark “.” and file ex- tension). Each folder must contain fewer than 8 hierarchies. m3u— Playlists created using “WINAMP” software have a playlist file extension (.m3u).

NOTICE

The installation of window tinting may obstruct the GPS signals. Most window tinting contains some metallic content that will interfere with GPS signal recep- tion. We advise against the use of win- dow tinting on vehicles equipped with navigation systems.

APPENDIX

Limitations of the navigation system This navigation system calculates the cur- rent vehicle position using satellite sig- nals, various vehicle signals, map data, etc. However, the accurate position may not be shown depending on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circumstances. The Global Positioning System (GPS) devel- oped and operated by the U.S. Department of Defense provides an accurate current vehicle position using 3 to 4 satellites. The GPS sys- tem has a certain level of inaccuracy. While the navigation system will compensate for this most of the time, occasional positioning errors of up to 300 feet (100 m) can and should be expected.

When your vehicle is receiving signals from the satellites, the “GPS” mark appears at the top left of the screen. The GPS signal may be physically ob- structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle posi- tion on the map display. Tunnels, tall build- ings, trucks, or even the placement of objects on the instrument panel may obstruct the GPS signals. The GPS satellites may not send signals due to repairs or improvements being made to them. Even when the navigation system is receiving clear GPS signals, the vehicle position may not be shown accurately or inappropriate route guidance may occur in some cases.

(cid:1) When the tire pressure in any of the four

tires is not correct.

INFORMATION

If your vehicle cannot receive GPS sig- nals, you can correct the current posi- tion manually. For information on set- ting the current position calibration, see “(cid:1) Current position/tire change calibra- tion” on page 87.

(a) Accurate current vehicle position may not be shown in the following cases: (cid:1) When driving on a small angled Y-shaped

road.

(cid:1) When driving on a winding road. (cid:1) When driving on a slippery road such as

in sand, gravel, snow, etc.

(cid:1) When driving on a long straight road. (cid:1) When freeway and surface streets run in

parallel.

(cid:1) After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier. (cid:1) When a long route is searched during high

speed driving.

(cid:1) When driving without setting the current

position calibration correctly.

(cid:1) After repeating a change of direction by going forward and backward, or turning on a turntable in the parking lot.

(cid:1) When leaving a covered parking lot or

parking garage.

(cid:1) When a roof carrier is installed. (cid:1) When driving with tire chains installed. (cid:1) When the tires are worn. (cid:1) After replacing a tire or tires. (cid:1) When using tires that are smaller or larger
