settings. For more information, see ªMemory and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.
Audio Systems
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily
and give years of listening pleasure. You will get the
most enjoyment out of it if you acquaint yourself with it
first. Find out what your audio system can do and how
to operate all of its controls to be sure you're getting the
most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, you can play your audio
system even after the ignition is turned off.
See ªRetained Accessory Powerº in the Index.

arrow to indicate which side of the tape is playing.
PLAY will appear on the display temporarily when a
tape is playing. The display will then revert back to
showing the time.
Your cassette tape player automatically reduces
background noise from tapes. Dolby Noise
Reduction is manufactured under a license from
Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.

-D symbol are trademarks
of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.
If an error appears on the display, see ªCassette Tape
Messagesº later in this section.

Setting a PTY Preset Stations
The six numbered pushbuttons let you return to your
favorite PTYs. These pushbuttons have factory presets.
See ªRadio Data Systems (RDS) Program Type (PTY)
Selectionsº in the Index. You can set up to 12 PTYs
(six FM1 and six FM2), by doing the following:
1. Turn PTY on.
2. Press BAND to select FM1 or FM2.
3. Tune in an RDS station with the PTY you desire.
4. Press and hold one of the six numbered pushbuttons
for more than two seconds until you hear a beep.
Whenever you press that pushbutton for less than
two seconds, the PTY you set will return.
5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton.
When battery power is removed and later applied,
you will not have to reset your RDS presets because
the radio remembers them.RDS Messages
ALERT: This type of announcement warns of national
or local emergencies. You will not be able to turn off
alert announcements. Alert announcements will come
on even if RDS mode is turned off. ALERT appears
on the display when an alert announcement plays.
The radio uses TA volume during these announcements.
To increase volume, turn the VOL knob clockwise.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease volume.
TA VOLUME will appear on the display while the
volume is being adjusted. When an alert announcement
comes on the current radio station or a related network
station, you will hear it, even if the volume is muted
or a cassette tape or compact disc is playing. If the
radio tunes to a related network station for an alert
announcement, it will return to the original station
when the announcement is finished. If the cassette tape
or compact disc player is playing, play will stop for the
announcement and resume when the announcement
is finished.

3-31 Radio Personalization with Home and
Away Feature (If Equipped)
If DRIVER 1 (HOME or AWAY) PRESETS or
DRIVER 2 (HOME or AWAY) PRESETS appears
in the display when the radio is first turned on,
your vehicle is equipped with this feature.
This feature allows the driver to return to the last used
audio source (radio, cassette or CD) using their remote
keyless entry transmitter. This feature can also store
and recall AM and FM presets, volume, tone and the
last selected radio station. The number on the back of
each transmitter (1 or 2) corresponds to driver 1 or 2.
If transmitter 1 is used to enter the vehicle, the last
used audio source and/or settings set by driver 1 will be
recalled. If transmitter 2 is used to enter the vehicle, the
last used audio source and/or settings set by driver 2 will
be recalled. The settings can also be recalled by pressing
the MEMORY seat buttons 1 or 2 located on the
driver's door.
Your radio can store home and away presets. Home and
away presets allow you to use one set of preset radio
settings in the area where you live, and another set when
you go out of town. That way, you will not need to
reprogram your presets every time you travel. With the
radio off and the clock displayed, use fast forward andreverse to select home or away presets. To select the
away presets, press and hold FF for five seconds until
you hear a beep. The next time the radio comes on,
the away presets will be active. To select the home
presets, press and hold RW or REV for five seconds
until you hear a beep. The next time the radio comes on,
the home presets will be active.
When battery power is removed and later applied, you
will not have to reset your home radio presets because
the radio remembers them. However, you will have to
reset your away radio presets.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK
is designed to discourage theft of
your radio. Your vehicle has a ªbuilt
-inº theft-deterrent
feature on each radio that is automatic
-- there is
no programming required. The radio in your vehicle
cannot be used in any other vehicle. When the radio
was originally installed in your vehicle at the factory,
it stored the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
Each time the ignition is turned on, the VIN is verified.
If the vehicle's VIN does not match the VIN stored in
the radio, THEFTLOCK will be activated and the audio
system will not play. If the radio is removed from your
vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to
trace the radio back to your vehicle.
