• Jump backward in the current track by
pressing and holding the << RWbutton.
Holding the << RWbutton long enough
will jump to the beginning of the current
track.
• Jump forward in the current track by press-
ing and holding the FF>> button.
• A single press backward << RWor forward
FF >> will jump backward or forward re-
spectively, for five seconds.
• Use the << SEEKandSEEK >> buttons to
jump to the previous or next track. Pressing
the SEEK >> button during play mode will
jump to the next track in the list, or can press
VR button and say Next or Previous Track .
• While a track is playing, press the INFO
button to see the associated metadata (art-
ist, track title, album, etc.) for that track.
Pressing the INFObutton again jumps to the
next screen of data for that track. Once all screens have been viewed, the last
INFO
button press will go back to the play mode
screen on the radio.
• Pressing the REPEATbutton will change the
audio device mode to repeat the current
playing track or press the VR button and say
 Repeat ON or Repeat Off .
• Press the SCANbutton to use UCI device
scan mode, which will play the first 10 sec-
onds of each track in the current list and then
forward to the next song. To stop SCAN
mode and start playing the desired track,
when it is playing the track, press the SCAN
button again. During Scan mode, pressing
the << SEEKandSEEK >> buttons will
select the previous and next tracks.
• RND button (available on sales code RES
radio only): Pressing this button toggles be-
tween Shuffle ON and Shuffle OFF modes for
the iPod or external USB device, or press
VR button and say Shuffle ON or 
Shuffle
Off .Ifthe RNDicon is showing on the radio
display, then the shuffle mode is ON.

List Or Browse ModeDuring Play mode, pressing any of the buttons
described below, will bring up List mode. List
mode enables scrolling through the list of
menus and tracks on the audio device.
•TUNE control knob: The TUNEcontrol knob
functions in a similar manner as the scroll
wheel on the or external USB device.
• Turning it clockwise (forward) and coun-
terclockwise (backward) scrolls through
the lists, displaying the track detail on the
radio display. Once the track to be played
is highlighted on the radio display, press
the TUNE control knob to select and start
playing the track. Turning the TUNEcon-
trol knob fast will scroll through the list
faster. During fast scroll, a slight delay in
updating the information on the radio dis-
play may be noticeable.
• During all List modes, the iPod displays
all lists in “wrap-around” mode. So if the
track is at the bottom of the list, just turn
the wheel backwards (counter-clockwise)
to get to the track faster. •
In List mode, the radio PRESETbuttons
are used as shortcuts to the following lists
on the iPod or external USB device.
• Preset 1 – Playlists
• Preset2–Ar tists
• Preset 3 – Albums
• Preset 4 – Genres
• Preset 5 – Audiobooks
• Preset 6 – Podcasts
• Pressing a PRESET button will display the
current list on the top line and the first item
in that list on the second line.
• To Exit List mode without selecting a
track, press the same PRESETbutton
again to go back to Play mode.
• LIST button: The LISTbutton will display the
top level menu of the iPod or external USB
device. Turn the TUNEcontrol knob to list the
top-menu item to be selected and press the
TUNE control knob. This will display the next
sub-menu list item on the audio device, then
follow the same steps to go to the desired track in that list. Not all iPod
or external USB

(or any supported device) anywhere in the
vehicle in extreme heat or cold can alter the
operation or damage the device. Follow the
device manufacturer’s guidelines.
• Placing items on the iPod or external USB
device, or connections to the iPod or
external USB device in the vehicle, can
cause damage to the device and/or to the
connectors.
WARNING!
Do not plug in or remove the iPod or external
USB device while driving. Failure to follow this
warning could result in an accident.

WARNING!
The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it
increase the traction afforded by prevailing
road conditions. The ABS cannot prevent ac-
cidents, including those resulting from exces-
sive speed in turns, driving on very slippery
surfaces, or hydroplaning. The capabilities of
an ABS-equipped vehicle must never be ex-
ploited in a reckless or dangerous manner
which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the
safety of others.
Traction Control System (TCS)
This system monitors the amount of wheel spin
of each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is
detected, brake pressure is applied to the
slipping wheel(s) and engine power is reduced
to provide enhanced acceleration and stability.
A feature of the TCS system, Brake Limited
Differential (BLD), functions similar to a limited-
slip differential and controls the wheel spin
across a driven axle. If one wheel on a driven
axle is spinning faster than the other, the sys-tem will apply the brake of the spinning wheel.
This will allow more engine torque to be applied
to the wheel that is not spinning. This feature
remains active even if ESC system is in the
“Partial Off” mode. Refer to “Electronic Stability
Control (ESC)” in this section for further infor-
mation.
Brake Assist System (BAS)The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s
braking capability during emergency braking
maneuvers. The system detects an emergency
braking situation by sensing the rate and
amount of brake application and then applies
optimum pressure to the brakes. This can help
reduce braking distances. The BAS comple-
ments the anti-lock brake system (ABS). Apply-
ing the brakes very quickly results in the best
BAS assistance. To receive the benefit of the
system, you must apply
continuousbraking
pressure during the stopping sequence (do not
“pump” the brakes). Do not reduce brake pedal
pressure unless braking is no longer desired.
Once the brake pedal is released, the BAS is
deactivated.
WARNING!
The BAS cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it
increase the traction afforded by prevailing
road conditions. The BAS cannot prevent
accidents, including those resulting from ex-
cessive speed in turns, driving on very slip-
pery surfaces, or hydroplaning. The capabili-
ties of a BAS-equipped vehicle must never be
exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner
which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the
safety of others.
Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM)This system anticipates the potential for wheel
lift by monitoring the driver’s steering wheel
input and the speed of the vehicle. When ERM
determines that the rate of change of the steer-
ing wheel angle and vehicle speed are suffi-
cient to potentially cause wheel lift, it then
applies the brake of the appropriate wheel and
may also reduce engine power to lessen the
chance that wheel lift will occur. ERM will only
intervene during very severe or evasive driving
maneuvers.
