When you select: You can:
To save a multicast
station as a presetWhen the channel is active on-screen, press
and hold a memory preset slot on the right of
the screen until the sound returns. There is a
brief mute, then the sound returns signifying
it was saved. When recalling a HD2 or HD3
memory preset, there is a mute before the
digital audio is played as the system must
once again acquire the digital signal.
As with any saved radio station, you cannot
access the saved station if your vehicle is
outside the station’s reception area.
HD Radio Reception/Station Troubleshooting
Potential reception issues
Reception areaIf you are listening to a multicast station and
you are on the fringe of the reception area,
the station may mute due to weak signal
strength.
If you are listening to HD1, the system
switches back to the analog broadcast until
the digital broadcast is available again.
However, if you are listening to any of the
possible HD2–HD7 multicast channels, the
station mutes and stay muted unless it is able
to connect to the digital signal again.
Station blendingWhen a station is first received (aside from
HD2–HD7 multicast stations), the system first
plays the station in the analog version and
then, if receiver verifies the station is an HD
Radio station, it shifts to the digital version.
Depending on the station quality, you may
hear a slight sound change when the station
changes from analog to digital. This shift from
analog to digital sound or digital back to
analog, is known as “blending”.

the necessary information has been entered. Pressing the Go! button
makes the address location to appear on the map. If you choose
Previous Destination, the last 20 destinations you have selected appear.
2. Select Set as Dest to make this your destination. You can also choose to
set this as a waypoint (have the system route to this point on the way
to your current destination) or save it as a favorite. Any Avoid Areas
selections are also considered in route calculation.
3.
Choose from up to three different types of routes, then select Start Route.
•Fastest: Uses the fastest moving roads possible.
•Shortest: Uses the shortest distance possible.
•Eco (EcoRoute): Uses the most fuel efficient route.
You can cancel the route or have the system demo the route for you.
Select Route Prefs to set route preferences like avoiding freeways, toll
roads, ferries and car trains as well as to use or not use HOV lanes.
(HOV lanes are High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes also known as carpool or
diamond lanes. These lanes are reserved for people who ride in buses,
vanpools or carpools.)
Note:If Start Route button is not pressed and the vehicle is driven on a
recognized road, the system defaults to the fastest route option and
begins guidance.
During route guidance, the “talking bubble” icon that appears in the
upper right navigation corner (green bar) can be pressed if the user
wants the system to repeat a route guidance instruction. Instructions
decrease with each press.
