General What audio file format will radio/cd play?

What audio CD file format will radio/cd play? I burned MP3,WMA, WAV and all rejected. 2009 Eco-Active.

Depends what head unit was fitted the three I have come across are

Normal units only play standard audio CDs

Those with a Mp3 logo play Mp3 files as well but no other types

And tape play which loose their code when the battery is disconnected

Unless it says MP3 on the front of the unit then likelihood is it will only play standard Audio CDs, either burn discs as Audio CDs or look at upgrading the radio.
As its an Eco-active which is the bottom of the range it would not have gotten any fancy upgrades, by 2009 fiat had stopped MP3 radios in favor of Blue and Me which could play music from a USB stick.
