HONDA 2010 Element - Manual (Page 147)

To Play a Disc
You operate the disc player with the
same controls used for the radio. To
load or play discs, the ignition switch
must be in the ACCESSORY (I) or
ON (II) position.
Do not use discs with adhesive labels.
The label can curl up and cause the
disc to jam in the unit.
This audio system can also play
CD-Rs and CD-RWs compressed in
MP3 or WMA formats. When playing
a disc in MP3, you will see
‘‘MP3’’ on
the screen. In WMA format, ‘‘WMA’’
will appear on the screen. You can
select up to 99 folders and play up to
999 tracks. If the disc has a complex
structure, it takes a while to read the
disc before the system begins to play
it.
If you have a disc that is a
combination of CD-DA tracks and
MP3/WMA files, you can choose the
format to listen by pressing and
holding CD/XM button until you
hear a beep.
Video CDs and DVDs do not work in
this unit.
