MP3 FUNCTIONS

Your audio system is equipped with MP3 capability which allows you to
listen to songs in MP3 flat file mode and MP3 directory mode.

To engage MP3 flat file mode, insert an MP3 disc. If an MP3 disc is
already present in the player, press the CD control. The MP3 icon will
display while the player is in MP3 mode.

While in MP3 flat file mode, press
the MP3 DIR control to enter into
MP3 directory mode. The MP3 icon
and the DIR icon will display while
the player is in directory mode.

Your MACH

t MP3 player is also equipped with an anti-shock buffer for

MP3 discs.

MP3 FILE DIRECTORY STRUCTURE

The MACH

t MP3 music system recognizes MP3 disc file and directory

(folder) structure as follows:
• There are two different modes for MP3 disc playback: MP3 flat file

mode (default) and MP3 directory mode.

• MP3 flat file mode ignores any directory structure present on the MP3

disc. The player sequentially numbers each MP3 track on the disc
(denoted by the .mp3 file extension) from T001 to T255.

• MP3 directory mode represents a directory structure consisting of one

level of directories (folders). The CD player sequentially numbers all
MP3 tracks on the disc (denoted by .mp3 extension) and all
directories containing MP3 files, from 01–01 to 99–99. The first two
digits denote the directory number and the last two digits denote the
track number within that directory.

• Creating discs with only one level of subdirectories will help with

navigation through the disc files.

Entertainment Systems

ERROR MESSAGES

You may experience an error message for the following situations:
• NO DISC when the CD control is pressed and there is not a CD

present.

• DISC ERR when there is a damaged or unreadable disc. Such as, data

discs containing no .mp3 files, or for data discs containing more than
255 files or directories.

• CD ERR for any other disc malfunction.

SAMPLE HIERARCHIES

If you are burning your own MP3
discs, it is important to understand
how the MACH

t MP3 music system

will read the hierarchies you create.
This is an example of creating a
directory structure that is one level
deep with various types of music.
While various files are present, (files
with extensions other than mp3),
only files with the .mp3 extension
will be played. Other files will be
ignored by the system. This enables
you to use the same MP3 disc for a
variety of tasks on your work
computer, home computer and your
MACH

t MP3 music system.

Entertainment Systems

This hierarchy is an example of a
more complex directory structure.
While you are capable of setting up
many directory levels when burning
a CD, the MACH

t MP3 music

system will display the structure as
if it were only one level deep.
Therefore, the system will condense
the complex hierarchy into a
structure similar to the
one-level-deep example above. This
will not harm the MP3 disc and will
not change the hierarchy that is
actually written on the disc. Only
mp3 files will be played, files with
other extensions will be skipped.

In this example, (xx) = directory, (xx-xx) = directory -track, and (Txxx)
= flat file track.

SAVING AND NAMING MP3 FILES

• Your MACHt MP3 music system supports discs containing up to 255

files in 255 directories. Discs containing more than 255 files will not
play.

• Always save MP3 files with the .mp3 extension. The player recognizes

an MP3 file by the .mp3 extension, so MP3 files saved with different
extensions will not be played. Never save a non-MP3 file with the
.mp3 extension as the file will not play properly and damage
may occur to the player or your sound system.

• The player supports multi session discs. However, be sure to import

the previous session of the disc before you add new files. If you do not
import the previous session, only the last session will be played.

• When burning a disc, ensure that you close/finalize the disc before

playback, or the disc may not play properly or an error message may
appear.

• The player supports DAM (Digital Automatic Music) discs.

RADIO FREQUENCIES

AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:

AM - 530, 540–1600, 1610 kHz

FM- 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz

RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS

There are three factors that can effect radio reception:
• Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the

weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,

traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

• Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal

may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.

CASSETTE/PLAYER CARE

Do:
• Use only cassettes which are 90 minutes long or less.
• Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the hole

and turning the hub.

• Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.
• Allow tapes which have been subjected to extreme heat, humidity or

cold to reach a moderate temperature before playing.

• Clean the cassette player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after

10–12 hours of play to maintain good sound/operation.

Don’t:
• Expose tapes to direct sunlight, extreme humidity, heat or cold.
• Leave tapes in the cassette player for a long time when not being

played.

CD/CD PLAYER CARE

Do:
• Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.
• Inspect discs before playing. Clean only with an approved CD cleaner

and wipe from the center out.

Entertainment Systems

Don’t:
• Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods

of time.

• Insert more than one disc into each slot of the CD changer magazine.
• Clean using a circular motion.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75 in)
audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility, certain
recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not function
correctly when used in CD players. Irregular shaped CDs, CDs
with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with homemade
paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into the CD player.
The label may peel and cause the CD to become jammed. It is
recommended that homemade CDs be identified with permanent
felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels. Ball point pens may
damage CDs. Please contact your dealer for further information.

AUDIO SYSTEM WARRANTY AND SERVICE

Refer to the Warranty Guide for audio system warranty information. If
service is necessary, see your authorized Mazda dealership.
