Safety1.
Intended use1.1
The Car Radio Music System plays music from USB device, memory card
and radio. Read the manual carefully before the rst use.
i Due to the great variety of products with external memory connection
(USB, SD/MMC, etc.) and their sometimes quite manufacturer-specic
functions we can neither guarantee that all devices will be recognised,
nor that all operating options that are possible in theory will actually
work.
Labels in this manual1.2

cable from a specialized dealer if required. Please consult a
specialist in your area if you have any questions about the
connections.
