System Information
Shared Modes
This allows the VES to output radio sources to the head-
phones and the radio to output VES sources to the vehicle
speakers.
If the radio functions (FM, AM, or SAT) are in the shared
mode with the VES, only the radio is able to control the
radio functions. In this case, VES can share the radio mode,
but not change stations until the radio mode is changed to
a mode that is different from the VES selected radio mode.
When shared, the radio has priority over the VES or all
radio modes (FM, AM, and SAT). The VES has the ability to
switch tuner (AM/FM), SEEK, SCAN, TUNE, and recall
presets in radio modes as long as it is not in shared mode.When in shared disc mode both the radio and the VES have
control of the video functions. The VES has the ability to
control the following video modes:
1. CD: Ability to Fast Forward, Rewind, Scan, and Track
Up/Down.
2. CD Changer (in radio): Ability to Disk Up/Down and program all listed CD controls (Fast Forward, Rewind,
Scan, and Track Up/Down).
The VES can even control radio modes or video modes
while the radio is turned off. The VES can access the radio
modes or disc modes by navigating to those modes on the
VES and activating a radio mode or disc mode.Station List Menu
When listening to Satellite audio, pushing the remote
control’s POP UP/MENU button displays a list of all
available channels. Navigate this list using the remote
control’s navigation buttons (, ) to find the desired
station, push the remote control’s ENTER/OK button to
tune to that station. To jump through the list more quickly,
navigate to the Page Up and Page Down icons on the
screen.
