Cellular Phone Usage Cellular phone usage may cause interference with your vehicle’s radio. This interference may occur when making or receiving phone calls, charging the phone’s battery, or simply having the phone on. This interference is an increased level of static while listening to the radio. If static is received while listening to the radio, unplug the cellular phone and turn it off. 3-85 Care of Your CDs Handle CDs carefully. Store them in their original cases or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. The CD player scans the bottom surface of the disc. If the surface of a CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD will not play properly or not at all. If the surface of a CD is soiled, take a soft, lint free cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with water, and clean it. Make sure the wiping process starts from the center to the edge. Do not touch the bottom side of a CD while handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up CDs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole and the outer edge. Care of the CD Player The use of CD lens cleaners for CD players is not advised, due to the risk of contaminating the internal lens of the CD optics with lubricants.

Keeping your mind on the drive is important for safe driving. See Defensive Driving on page 5-2 for more information. Get familiar with your vehicle’s navigation system so you can use it with less effort and take full advantage of its features. Your navigation system includes not only navigation, but also audio functions. While your vehicle is parked: Familiarize yourself with all of its controls: hard keys on the faceplate and touch-sensitive screen buttons. Familiarize yourself with its operation. (cid:127) Set up your audio by presetting your favorite stations, setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers. Then, when driving conditions permit, you can tune to your favorite stations using the presets and steering wheel controls (if equipped). (cid:127) Set up the navigation features that can only be done before you begin driving, such as entering an address or a preset destination. Entering a destination or alphanumeric text requires many steps, so you can only perform these operations when the vehicle is in PARK (P). You will notice that touch-sensitive screen buttons leading to the alphanumeric keyboard are dimmed out while driving. Other functions may also be locked out while driving and they too will appear grayed out on the screen — but all functions are available when parked. Some functions can be performed while driving, as long as you can do so without diverting too much of your attention from your driving. {CAUTION: This system provides you with a far greater access to audio stations and song listings. Giving extended attention to entertainment tasks while driving can cause a crash and you or others can be injured or killed. Always keep your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive — avoid engaging in extended searching while driving. 4-4 (cid:127) (cid:127) {CAUTION: Looking at the moving map on the navigation screen frequently or for too long while driving can cause a crash and you or others can be injured or killed.

RDS features are available for use only on FM stations that broadcast RDS information. With RDS, the radio can do the following: (cid:127) Seek to stations broadcasting the selected type of programming (cid:127) Receive announcements concerning local and national emergencies (cid:127) Display messages from radio stations (cid:127) Seek to stations with traffic announcements 4-59 RDS: Touch RDS to use alternate RDS functions located in the preset menu. When you touch RDS, you will only have about ﬁve seconds to choose RDS ON/OFF, TA, MSG, PTY, or SEL PTY. If you do not make a selection, the system will return to the previous menu. If you are tuned to a station broadcasting RDS information, the station’s Program Service (PS) and Program Type (PTY) will replace the station’s frequency on the status line at the top of the display. After about ﬁve seconds, if available, the PTY will be replaced on the display by the station’s PTY name. The PTY and PTY name may be the same or different. If the audio system is tuned to a station that is not broadcasting RDS information, the station’s frequency will remain on the display. While RDS is on, the audio system will search for a stronger station in the network if a station gets too weak for listening. The RDS feature relies upon receiving speciﬁc information from RDS stations. These features will only work when RDS information is available. TA (Traffic): Touch TA to receive traffic announcements. The audio system will turn on the TA display. TA will appear on the display if the current station broadcasts traffic announcements. You may also receive traffic announcements from stations in the network related to the current station. If the current station does not broadcast traffic announcements, the audio system will seek to a station which will. When the audio system ﬁnds a station which broadcasts traffic announcements, it will stop. If no station is found, TA will turn off. While a traffic announcement plays, the audio system uses TA volume. To increase TA volume, touch the VOL button on your steering wheel or use the VOL up or down buttons during the announcement. See “Voice Guidance Volume Settings” under Setup Menu on page 4-13 for more information. When a traffic announcement comes on the current radio station or a related network station, you will hear it even if the volume is muted or a CD is playing. If the audio system tunes to a related network station for a traffic announcement, it will return to the original station when the announcement is ﬁnished. If the CD player was being used, the CD will stay in the player and resume play at the point where it stopped. Touch RDS followed by TA again to turn TA off. 4-60 MSG (Message): When RDS is on, if the current station has a message, MSG will appear on the display. Touch MSG from the preset menu to view the message. If the whole message does not appear on the display, parts of the message will appear every three seconds until the message is completed. Once the complete message has been displayed, MSG will disappear from the display until another new message is received. MSG will remain available to allow you to display the entire message again. PTY: PTY allows you to seek only stations with types of programs you want to listen to. This button is used to turn on and off Program Type (PTY) features. With RDS on, touch RDS, followed by PTY. The PTY display will turn on. Touch RDS followed by this button again to turn the PTY display off. Select PTY (Select Program Type): With RDS and PTY on, touch RDS, then SEL PTY. The PTY menu will appear. Use the up and down arrows to select a PTY. Touch your PTY selection and the system will return you to the screen with the preset stations shown. See Steps 1 through 7 under “Preset Station Menu” to store the selected PTYs. The selected PTY is then stored on the preset. You can now touch the PTY preset to recall your settings. When the PTY display is on, press TUNE/SEEK and SCAN to ﬁnd radio stations of the PTY selected. The last PTY selected will be used for seek and scan modes. If a station with the selected PTY is not found, NONE FOUND will appear on the display. If both PTY and TA are on, the audio system will search for stations with traffic announcements and the selected PTY. PTY (Program Type) Presets: The six presets let you return to your favorite PTYs. These presets have factory PTY preset stations. See “RDS Program Type (PTY) Selections” later in this section. You can set up to 12 PTYs, 6 FM 1 and 6 FM2. To save a PTY preset, do the following: 1.
