What is a Bank?
A bank is a unit of up to 1,000 songs, which is stored in memory.
“BANKING” refers to the grouping of songs available in Flash Memory, in
banks of 1,000 songs each. However, unless the following estimates are
followed, the total number of songs stored could be less.

About Banking
While a bank is being built up, “BANKING” is displayed. Banking occurs
whenever a Flash Memory device is connected or after power to the
head unit turns on.
It can take anywhere from a few seconds to up to several minutes for
banking to complete. This depends on the number of files and folders
in Flash Memory.
Available operations while Banking
• During Banking, the information display changes so the VIEW
operation is not available.
• With a song playing, Regular fast-forwarding and next song selection is
available.
• While Banking, the song playback order may differ from the song order
in the Flash Memory device.
• Searching is not recommended during the Banking process as the
database is under construction at this time, and malfunction may result
in some cases.
