Personal Choice Radio Controls

If your vehicle has this feature it will enable two drivers
to store and recall personal settings for radio presets,
last tuned station, volume, tone, and audio source
(radio, cassette, or CD).

The memory buttons 1 and 2 for this feature are located
on the driver’s door panel and correspond to the
numbers 1 and 2 found on the back of each remote
keyless entry transmitter.

To recall audio sources, press the unlock button on the
remote keyless entry transmitter and turn the ignition
on. The source last listened to will be recalled for
the identified driver 1 or 2.

To program this feature, do the following:

1. Set all radio preferences. For more information see

“Setting Preset Stations” and “Setting the Tone”
listed for your particular radio.

2. Locate the memory buttons on the driver’s door

panel.

3. Press one of the memory buttons 1 or 2 until you

hear two beeps. The beeps confirm that your
selection has been saved and can now be recalled.

Follow these steps each time you want to change the
stored settings.

Theft-Deterrent Feature

THEFTLOCK

®

is designed to discourage theft of your

radio. It works by using a secret code to disable all radio
functions whenever battery power is interrupted.

If THEFTLOCK

®

is active, the THEFTLOCK

®

indicator

will flash when the ignition is off.

The THEFTLOCK

®

feature for the radio may be used or

ignored. If ignored, the system plays normally and the
radio is not protected by the feature. If THEFTLOCK

®

is

activated, your radio will not operate if stolen.

When THEFTLOCK

®

is activated, the radio will display

LOC to indicate a locked condition anytime battery
power is removed. If your battery loses power for any
reason, you must unlock the radio with the secret
code before it will operate.

Activating the Theft-Deterrent Feature

The instructions which follow explain how to enter
your secret code to activate the THEFTLOCK

®

system.

Read through all nine steps before starting the
procedure.

If you allow more than 15 seconds to elapse between
any steps, the radio automatically reverts to time
and you must start the procedure over at Step 4.
