Radio Settings

Press the Config button on the Home Page or the CONFIG button on the faceplate to enter the menu options. Turn the MENU knob or touch-tap the scroll bar to scroll through the available options. Press the MENU knob or press Radio Settings to display the radio settings menu. Press this feature to make changes for radio information displayed, preset pages, Auto Volume Control, and XM Categories Restore. See Satellite Radio (if equipped), for more information about XM Categories.

The Radio Settings are:

Speed Dependent Volume: Select OFF, Low, Medium, or High sensitivity to automatically adjust the volume to minimize the effects of unwanted background noise that can result from changing road surfaces, driving speeds, or open windows. This feature works best at lower volume settings where background noise is typically louder than the sound system volume.

Startup Volume: Press to set the maximum volume level for startup that will be used even if a higher volume had been set when the radio was turned off.

Radio Favorites: Press to select the number of FAV pages to be used in the system.

Add/Remove XM Categories:

Press to customize which available XM Categories are used and displayed in the system.
