“TALK” button on the steering wheel, wait for a beep, then say a command in
a clear, natural voice (not too fast or too slow). Some common commands are listed below.

Tune to Station
Tune to Channel Number (XM)
HD RADIO
HD radio has a special
receiver which allows it to
receive digital broadcasts (where available) in addition to the analog broadcasts it already receives. Digital broadcasts have better
sound quality than analog broadcasts as digital
broadcasts provide free,
crystal clear audio.
When the HD radio button is ON (red), there could be a
noticeable difference in sound
quality and volume when a change from digital to analog signals occurs. If the sound
quality and volume becomes noticeably diminished or cuts
off, select the HD button to turn OFF HD radio (not red).

memory stick into the USB port.
