Voice Control System
Using Automatic Climate Control
The automatic climate control
system in your vehicle maintains the
interior temperature you select. The
system also adjusts the fan speed
and airflow levels.
Temperature Control
On vehicles with navigation system
The climate control system for your
vehicle can also be operated using
the voice control system. See the
navigation system manual for
complete details.
The driver’s side temperature and
the passenger’s side temperature can
be set separately. Turn the dial of
the appropriate temperature control
clockwise to increase the
temperature of airflow. Turn the dial
counterclockwise to decrease it.
Each set temperature is shown in the
display.
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Set the desired temperature by
turning the driver’s side
temperature control dial. You will
see AUTO and the selected
temperature in the display. You
can also set the passenger’s side
temperature by turning the
passenger’s side dial.
When you set the temperature to its
lower limit (
) or its upper limit
(
), the system runs at full
cooling or heating only. It does not
regulate the interior temperature.
When the indicator in the dual
button is on, the driver’s side and
passenger’s side temperature can be
controlled independently (see page
140 ).
The system automatically selects the
proper mix of conditioned and/or
heated air that will, as quickly as
possible, raise or lower the interior
temperature to your preference.

When you turn the A/C off, the
system cannot regulate the inside
temperature if you set the
temperature control dial below the
outside temperature.
Semi-automatic Operation
You can manually select various
functions of the climate control
system when it is in fully automatic
mode. All other features remain
automatically controlled. Making any
manual selection causes the word

AM/FM Radio Reception
Radio Frequencies
Radio Reception
The radio can receive the complete
AM and FM bands.
How well the radio receives stations
is dependent on many factors, such
as the distance from the station’s
transmitter, nearby large objects,
and atmospheric conditions.
Those bands cover these frequen-
cies:
AM band: 530 to 1,710 kHz
FM band: 87.7 to 107.9 MHz
A radio station’s signal gets weaker
as you get farther away from its
transmitter. If you are listening to an
AM station, you will notice the sound
volume becoming weaker, and the
station drifting in and out. If you are
listening to an FM station, you will
see the stereo indicator flickering off
and on as the signal weakens.
Radio stations on the AM band are
assigned frequencies at least 10 kHz
apart (530, 540, 550). Stations on the
FM band are assigned frequencies at
least 0.2 MHz apart (87.9, 88.1, 88.3).
Driving very near the transmitter of
a station that is broadcasting on a
frequency close to the frequency of
the station you are listening to can
also affect your radio’s reception.
You may temporarily hear both
stations, or hear only the station you
are close to.
Stations must use these exact
frequencies. It is fairly common for
Eventually, the stereo indicator will

completely as you get out of range of
the station’s signal.
250
09/07/16 18:27:51 31SWA630_256
AM/FM Radio Reception
Electrical interference from passing
vehicles and stationary sources can
cause temporary reception problems.
As required by the FCC:
Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
Radio signals, especially on the FM
band, are deflected by large objects
such as buildings and hills. Your
radio then receives both the direct
signal from the station’s transmitter,
and the deflected signal. This causes
the sound to distort or flutter. This is
a main cause of poor radio reception
in city driving.
Radio reception can be affected by
atmospheric conditions such as
thunderstorms, high humidity, and
even sunspots. You may be able to
receive a distant radio station one
day and not receive it the next day
because of a change in conditions.

dust and other contamination. To
prevent warpage, keep discs out of
direct sunlight and extreme heat.
When recording a CD-R or
CD-RW, the recording must be
closed for it to be used by the
system.
To clean a disc, use a clean soft cloth.
Wipe across the disc from the center
to the outside edge.
Play only standard, round, 5-inch
(12 cm) discs. Smaller or odd-
shaped discs may jam in the drive
or cause other problems.
A new disc may be rough on the
inner and outer edges. The small
plastic pieces causing this roughness
can flake off and fall on the
recording surface of the disc,
causing skipping or other problems.
Remove these pieces by rubbing the
inner and outer edges with the side
of a pencil or pen.
Handle a disc by its edges; never
touch either surface. Do not place
stabilizer rings or labels on the disc.
These, along with contamination
from fingerprints, liquids, and felt-tip
pens, can cause the disc to not play
properly, or possibly jam in the drive.
Handle your discs properly to
prevent damage and skipping.
Never try to insert foreign objects in
the system or the magazine.

Your vehicle’s audio system will

To make it work again, you must
enter a specific code using the preset
buttons (icon on vehicle’s with

are hundreds of number
combinations possible from specific
digits, making the system work
without knowing the exact code is
nearly impossible.
If your vehicle’s battery is
disconnected or goes dead, or the
radio fuse is removed, the audio
system will disable itself. If this
happens, you will see ‘‘ENTER

Use the preset buttons to enter the
code. On vehicles with navigation
system, touch the icon to enter the
code number, then touch the Done
icon to set the code. The code is on
the radio code card included in your
owner’s manual kit. When it is
entered correctly, the radio will start
playing.
You should have received a card that
lists your audio system’s code and
serial numbers. It is best to store this
card in a safe place at home. In
addition, you should write the audio

correct code. If you are unsuccessful
in 10 attempts, you must then leave

The horn sounds and a combination
of headlights, parking lights, side
marker lights and taillights flash if
someone attempts to break into your
vehicle or remove the audio unit.
This alarm continues for 2 minutes,

The security system automatically
sets 15 seconds after you lock the
doors, hood, and the tailgate. For the
system to activate, you must lock the
doors and the tailgate from the
outside with the key, driver’s lock
tab, door lock master switch, or
remote transmitter. The security
system indicator on the instrument
panel starts blinking immediately to
show you the system is setting itself.
