Playing the Radio

VOLUME

-

PWR: Press this knob to turn the system

on and off. To increase volume, turn the knob clockwise.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease volume.

SCV: Your system has a feature called
Speed

-

Compensated Volume (SCV). With SCV, your

audio system adjusts automatically to make up for road
and wind noise as you drive. Set the volume at the
desired level. Press this button to select MIN, MED
or MAX.

Each choice allows for more volume compensation
at faster vehicle speeds. Then, as you drive, SCV
automatically increases the volume, as necessary, to
overcome noise at any particular speed. The volume
level should always sound the same to you as you drive.
If you don’t want to use SCV, select OFF.

Finding a Station

AM FM: Press this button to switch between AM,
FM1 and FM2. The display shows your selection.

TUNE: Turn this knob to select radio stations.

SEEK: Press the up or down arrow to go to the next
higher or lower station and stay there. The sound will
mute while seeking.

SCAN: Press and hold the SEEK button for two seconds
until the SC icon appears on the display and you hear a
beep. Use SCAN to listen to stations for a few seconds.
The radio will go to a station, stop for a few seconds,
then go on to the next station. Press the SEEK button
again to stop scanning. If you press SEEK for more than
four seconds, the radio will change to PRESET SCAN
mode. The sound will mute while scanning.
