more information, and a guide to available stations and programming,
please visit www.hdradio.com.

When HD Radio is on and you tune to a station broadcasting HD Radio
technology, you may notice the following indicators on your screen:

HD) logo either blinks when acquiring a digital station, and
then stays solid when digital audio is playing, or is grey when
acquiring a digital station, and then changes to orange when
digital audio is playing. When this logo is available, you may also

see Title and Artist fields on-screen.

Multicast indicator appears in FM mode (only) if the current station is
broadcasting multiple digital broadcasts. The highlighted numbers signify
available digital channels where new or different content is available.
HD1 signifies the main programming status and is available in analog and
digital broadcasts. Other multicast stations (HD2 through HD7) are only
available digitally.

TAG allows you to save a song to download later when you are on an
acquired HD Radio station and the feature is on. To turn the feature on
and use it:
1. Press AM or FM > Options > TAG button > On.
2. When you hear a song you like, touch TAG.
3. The system automatically saves the song’s information and transfers

it to your portable music player (if supported) when you connect it
to the system. The system automatically transfers the tag to your
player (if already connected) and a pop-up confirms the transfer.

4. When you access iTunes with your portable music player, the tags

appear to you as a reminder. The system allows you to tag up to
approximately 100 songs. For a list of devices that support tagging,
see www.SYNCMyRide.com, www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.

When HD Radio broadcasts are active, you can access the following functions:

Scan allows you to hear a brief sampling of all available stations. This

feature still works when HD Radio reception is on, although it does not
scan for HD2-HD7 channels. You may see the HD logo appear if the
station has a digital broadcast.

Memory presets allow you to save an active channel as a memory preset.

Touch and hold a memory preset slot until the sound returns. There is a
brief mute while the radio saves the station. Sound returns when finished.
When switching to an HD2 or HD3 memory preset, the sound mutes
before the digital audio plays, because the system has to reacquire the
digital signal.

Note: As with any saved radio station, you cannot access the saved

station if your vehicle is outside the station’s reception area.
