2004 CHRYSLER 300 M turn signal

NOTE:Vehicle speed is monitored to calculate wiper
delay intervals. The delay between cycles is shortened
when the vehicle is moving above 10 m.p.h. (16 km/h)
and lengthened below 10 m.p.h. (16 km/h).
TILT STEERING COLUMN
To tilt the column, pull the small lever below the turn
signal control toward you and move the wheel up or
down, as desired. Release the lever to lock the wheel
firmly in place.
WARNING!
Tilting the steering column while the vehicle is
moving is dangerous. Without a stable steering col-
umn, you could lose control of the vehicle and have
an accident. Adjust the column only while the ve-
hicle is stopped. Be sure it is locked before driving.
TRACTION CONTROL SWITCH
To turn the Traction Control System Off, press the switch
located on the instrument panel, to the right of the
steering column, until the TRAC OFF light in the instru-
ment cluster lights up.

NOTE:Step 2 does not have to be followed to program
additional hand held transmitters.
3. Choose one of the three buttons to train. Place the
hand held controller one to three inches from the univer-
sal transceiver while keeping its indicator light in view.
4. Using both hands, press the hand held transmitter
button and the desired universal transceiver button. Do
not release the buttons until step 5 has been completed.NOTE:Some entry gates and garage door openers may
require you to replace step 4 with the procedures listed
under Canadian Programming.
5. The indicator light in the Universal Transceiver will
begin to flash, first slowly and then rapidly. The rapid
flashing indicates successful programming. If after 90
seconds the indicator light does not flash rapidly or goes
out, return to step 1 and repeat the procedure. To train the
other buttons, repeat steps 3 and 4. Be sure to keep your
hand held transmitters in case you need to retrain the
Universal Transceiver.
If you do not successfully program the Universal Trans-
ceiver to learn the signal of your hand held transmitter,
refer to the Rolling Code Paragraph, or call toll free for
customer assistance at 1–800–355–3515, or on the internet
at www.homelink.com.
“Rolling Code” Programming
NOTE:
If your hand held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the Universal Transceiver, but your garage door or
other device does not operate, and your device was
manufactured after 1996, your garage door opener or
other device may have a “Rolling Code” system.

NOTE:This display will return 60 seconds after either
the C/T, MENU, STEP, or RESET button is pressed. If a
tire is low or high, you should correct your tire inflation
pressure as soon as possible and inspect all of your tires.
Refer to “Starting and Operating, Tires Section, Tire
Inflation Pressures” for more details. Once the low or
high tire pressure message has occurred, it will continue
to blink until the tire pressure is corrected.
2. If the spare tire pressure has exceeded the low or high
pressure allowed, the TPM system will display a message
in the EVIC for 60 seconds and sound a chime per every
ignition cycle.
NOTE:This message will return every ignition cycle,
until the tire pressures are corrected.
3. When the vehicle is moving and the EVIC cannot
receive a valid sensor signal from the tire pressure
sensors, the TIRE PRESSURE UNAVAILABLE message
will be displayed for 5 seconds along with a chime. The
display will then shift to the individual tire pressure
display screen and display dashes for the tire or tires that
are affected. Once the TIRE PRESSURE UNAVAILABLE
message has been displayed, and valid sensor signals arereceived, the EVIC will display the TIRE PRESSURE
NOW AVAILABLE message for 5 seconds along with a
chime. This is meant to inform you when the TPM system
has returned to it’s normal operation. This will occur
when valid tire pressure sensor messages have been
received from all 4 road tires. The TPM system function is
temporarily unavailable due to external electromagnetic
interference, such as electronic devices or nearby radio or
TV towers.
4. In addition to monitoring the vehicle tires, the TPM
system monitors faults within the system. When any
fault has been set, the TPM system will display TIRE
SENSOR BAD/MISSING. Be sure to inspect your tires for
proper inflation pressure. After you determine that your
tires are properly inflated, see your authorized dealer for
service to diagnose the problem with the TPM system.
5. If a road tire is replaced by the spare, the TPM system
will automatically detect that the tires have been
switched (after the ignition has been cycled) and display
SPARE SWAP DETECTED along with a chime. This
could take up to 10 minutes with vehicle speed above 25
mph (40 km/h).

SETTING THE ANALOG CLOCK
To set the analog clock at the top center of the instrument
panel, press and hold the plus (+) or minus (-) buttons
until the setting is correct.
ELECTRONIC DIGITAL CLOCK
When the radio is on, pressing the TIME button will
allow you to select between displaying actual time con-
tinuously or information related to the mode which the
radio is in (i.e. in Radio mode, the radio frequency is
displayed.)
When the radio is off, time will not be displayed unless
the TIME button is pressed, and then the time will only
be displayed for 5 seconds. This function will operate
with the ignition switch in either the on or off positions.
You can ask your dealer to enable the digital clock to be
displayed continuously when the radio is off and the
ignition switch is on.
Clock Setting Procedure
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON or ACC position.
Using the point of a ballpoint pen or similar object, press
either the hour (H) or minute (M) buttons on the radio.
The display will show TIME.
2. Press the H button to set hours or the M button to set
minutes. The time setting will increase each time you
press a button.
RADIO GENERAL INFORMATION
Radio Broadcast Signals
Your new radio will provide excellent reception under
most operating conditions. Like any system, however, car
radios have performance limitations, due to mobile op-
eration and natural phenomena, which might lead you to
believe your sound system is malfunctioning. To help
you understand and save you concern about these “ap-
parent” malfunctions, you must understand a point or
two about the transmission and reception of radio sig-
nals.
118 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

Two Types of Signals
There are two basic types of radio signals... AM or
Amplitude Modulation, in which the transmitted sound
causes the amplitude, or height, of the radio waves to
vary... and FM or Frequency Modulation, in which the
frequency of the wave is varied to carry the sound.
Electrical Disturbances
Radio waves may pick up electrical disturbances during
transmission. They mainly affect the wave amplitude,
and thus remain a part of the AM reception. They
interfere very little with the frequency variations that
carry the FM signal.
AM Reception
AM sound is based on wave amplitude, so AM reception
can be disrupted by such things as lightning, power lines
and neon signs.
FM Reception
Because FM transmission is based on frequency varia-
tions, interference that consists of amplitude variations
can be filtered out, leaving the reception relatively clear,
which is the major feature of FM radio.
NOTE:On vehicles so equipped the radio, steering
wheel radio controls and 6 disc CD/DVD changer if
equipped, will remain active for up to 45 seconds after
the ignition switch has been turned off. Opening a
vehicle front door will cancel this feature.
