18. Listening to audio fi les via USB
With MUSIC PLAYER operating mode, you can play back audio files from a USB
data medium.
The USB data medium must be formatted as FAT32.
Supported audio formats: *.mp3
To play back audio files from a USB data medium, connect a USB data medium to
the USB port.
You can generally only use the USB port to play back audio files. It is not
possible to save audio files (e.g. a recording via internet radio mode).
When you connect a USB data medium, the device automatically
switches to music playback mode and the dialogue USB DISK ATTACHED OPEN
FOLDER? is shown for approx. 5 seconds.
Confirm by pressing YES to open the content on the USB data medium directly.
If no audio files are available, the main menu is displayed when music playback is
called up.
You can also select the MUSIC PLAYER function in the main menu and
confirm with OK on the remote control or the OK button on the NAV/
OK dial.
If the device switches off due to an electrical discharge while in USB
mode (MUSIC PLAYER) it will restart. The last operating mode cannot
be restored independently.
Start the respective media or applications again.
The last user settings set cannot be restored following a static discharge
because the folder structure is not stored in the memory.
To avoid damaging the device, do not use a USB extension
cable and do not connect the device directly to the USB port
of a computer.
The USB port is only designed for the use of USB memory
sticks. Other external storage media such as external hard
drives cannot be operated using the USB port.
The USB port continuously supplies power or charges a connected
external device
(e.g. smartphone) even if audio is not being played or the internet radio
is in standby mode.
