What does tunefolder mean in a car?
2 Answers
It can be understood as the meaning of a folder. The FOLDER button on the car radio refers to the folder function, which allows switching between folders. Some car models display it as tunefolder, which translates to sound folder (audio folder). Additional details are as follows: Function: When more than two song folders are created, pressing the FOLDER down button will automatically jump to the second folder. Depending on the car model, the functionality may vary, so it is recommended to refer to the car's user manual. MODE mode: Used to switch between multimedia modes, such as AM, FM, HE, and USB modes.
As someone who frequently answers car-related questions for friends, I've noticed that many car owners come across the term 'tunefolder' in their electronic device manuals. Actually, this folder is primarily used by certain high-end car audio systems to store custom sound effect configurations. For example, in the Lexus Mark Levinson system, you can create a 'tunefolder' on a USB drive to save your customized bass and treble settings, which can then be directly loaded later without needing to readjust each time. However, this feature is quite niche. Based on my experience working at a modification shop, it's more commonly found in professional-grade car audio modifications and is rarely seen as an option in regular family cars. I'd recommend checking your car's owner manual first to see if it mentions this concept.
