Navigation/Radio System

Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.

The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction. Technology
alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.

Theft-Deterrent Feature

THEFTLOCK

®

is designed to discourage theft

of your vehicle’s radio. The feature works
automatically by learning a portion of the
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). If the radio
is moved to a different vehicle, it does not
operate and LOCKED displays.

When the radio and vehicle are turned off, the
blinking red light indicates that THEFTLOCK

®

is armed.

With THEFTLOCK

®

activated, the radio does

not operate if stolen.

Radio Reception

You may experience frequency interference and
static during normal radio reception if items
such as cellphone chargers, vehicle convenience
accessories, and external electronic devices
are plugged into the accessory power outlet.
If there is interference or static, unplug the item
from the accessory power outlet.

AM

The range for most AM stations is greater than
for FM, especially at night. The longer range can
cause station frequencies to interfere with each
other. For better radio reception, most AM
radio stations will boost the power levels during
the day, and then reduce these levels during
the night. Static can also occur when things like
storms and power lines interfere with radio
reception. When this happens, try reducing the
treble on your radio.
