Frequently Asked Questions
I insert a PC card with music files, but the CARD button or
navigation “PC Card” voice commands do not work. What’s
wrong?
• After inserting the card, a delay of up to 30 seconds may be required to
read the tag information (album, artist, and track names) - this is normal.
• Ensure that the music files on the media chip are either WMA or MP3
music format. Other formats are not recognized.
• Some downloaded WMA and MP3 files are copy protected, and require
that the copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on
the Card.
• Media types and capacities continue to grow. As a rule, stick to Compact
Flash or SD media with capacities of 2GB or less. Other types of media or
larger capacities may work, but have not been tested.
• Single-type media PC Card adaptors are recommended over multimedia-
type adaptors.
• Ensure that there are files on the card. For SD and other media with a
write-lock switch, ensure that the write protect is off when adding files to
the card.
• The system only recognizes FAT and FAT-32 file format for the media.
Some of the files on the PC card will not play, or I have an
eight GB card with 2500 songs, but only 999 play. Why is
this?
• The quantity of tracks is limited to 999 tracks and a file structure of up to
eight folder levels deep. Tracks beyond 999 are simply not recognized.
• Ensure that the music files on the media chip are either WMA or MP3
music format. Other formats are not recognized.
When I eject the media chip but leave the empty adaptor in
the PC card slot, the display door will not close. Why is this?
To prevent damage to the display mechanism or your PC card/media chip,
the system checks for a partially inserted PC card and a partially inserted
media chip. Always remove the PC card and media chip when not in use.
The media card will not fully insert into the PC card slot.
What is wrong?
• The PC card edge connector or the pins in the back of PC card slot may be
damaged.
• Never force the card into the slot - the adaptor card should glide smoothly
into the slot. See your dealer if the problem persists.
