Mazda 6 Owners Manual: Operating Tips for MP3

MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3, which is standardized voice compression established by the ISO*1 working group (MPEG).

Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be compressed to approximately a tenth of the source data size.

This unit plays files with the extension (.mp3) as MP3 files.
