Push these buttons to choose either an
AM or FM station.
“AM”, “FM1” or “FM2” appears on the screen.
If your vehicle is equipped with satellite ra-
dio broadcast system, when you push the
“AM·SAT” button, “AM”, “SAT1”, “SAT2” or
“SAT3” station appears on the display. For
details about satellite radio broadcast, see

Turn the knob clockwise to step up the sta-
tion band or counterclockwise to step

Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the screen. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the
amount of channel separation to prevent the
weak signal from creating noise. If the signal
becomes extremely weak, the radio switches
from stereo to mono reception. In this case,
“ST” disappears from the screen.
