MP3 tracks can contain additional infor- mation such as the artist, album and track names (ID3 tags). This device can display ID3 tags (version 1).

When creating (encoding) MP3 files from audio files, you should use bit rates up to a maximum of 256 Kbit/sec.

This device can only play MP3 files that have the ".MP3" file extension.

Notes:

To ensure uninterrupted playback,

do not try changing the file extension to ".MP3" of any files other than MP3 files and then attempt to play them! The device will ignore these invalid files during playback.

Do not use "mixed" CDs containing both non-MP3 data and MP3 tracks (the device only reads MP3 files dur- ing MP3 playback).

Do not use mix-mode CDs contain- ing both CD-audio tracks and MP3 tracks. If you try playing a mix-mode CD, the device will only play the CD- audio tracks.
