stations and other base stations, which may not be avail-
able at certain times and/or in particular locations.
Recommendations
Road Safety
We recommend that you learn how to use the various radio
features (for example, Station Preset) before you begin your
journey.
WARNING!
Turning the volume up too high may be dangerous for
the driver and other people on the road. You should
adjust the volume so that you are always able to hear
sounds around you (e.g. horns, ambulances, police
cars, etc.).
Radio Reception
Reception varies constantly while driving.
Reception may be affected by mountains, buildings or
bridges, especially when further away from the transmitter
of the tuned radio station.
CAUTION!
When listening to traffic news, you may notice louder
volume compared to normal playback.
Care And Maintenance
The radio structure is built to guarantee many years of
operation without needing maintenance. In case of a fault,
contact your local authorized dealer.
Use only a soft, anti-static cloth to clean the front of the
radio.
Detergents and waxes can damage the surface.
Identification Number
The radio has a unique identification number (found on the
warranty card). This card is required as proof of ownership
if the radio is stolen or when seeking assistance. Do not
store the warranty card in the vehicle.
Security Code
This radio has a serial number (found on the warranty
card).
Present this card as proof of ownership if the radio is stolen
or if you require assistance.

Do not store the warranty card in the vehicle.
If the electrical supply is disrupted, the unit will mute and
the display will show0000to indicate that you can enter
the security code.
You must enter the security (shown on the warranty card,
for example, 4359) code as follows:

When you turn the radio on, the dis-
play shows 0000. 0000
Push the number 1 preset button until
the first digit of the code number is
displayed. 4---
Push the number 2 preset button until
the second digit of the code number is
displayed. 40--
Push the number 3 preset button until
the third digit of the code number is
displayed. 43--
Push the number 4 preset button until
the fourth digit of the code number is
displayed. 430-
Action
Display
When you finish entering the code,
push the POWER button to accept the
code entered. 4359
If you enter the correct code, the radio will start as normal
in radio mode (TUNER). If you enter the wrong code, the
radio will remain locked until disconnected from the
power supply.
If the car radio power supply is disconnected for approxi-
mately eight seconds or longer, you will again be asked for
the security code when it is reconnected.

ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated Onboard
Diagnostic system called OBD II. This system monitors the
performance of the emissions, engine, and automatic trans-
mission control systems. When these systems are operating
properly, your vehicle will provide excellent performance
and fuel economy, as well as engine emissions well within
current government regulations.
If any of these systems require service, the OBD II system
will turn on the “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).” It
will also store diagnostic codes and other information to
assist your service technician in making repairs. Although
your vehicle will usually be drivable and not need towing,
see your authorized dealer for service as soon as possible.
CAUTION!
•Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause
further damage to the emission control system. It
could also affect fuel economy and driveability. The
vehicle must be serviced before any emissions tests
can be performed.
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
•If the MIL is flashing while the engine is running,
severe catalytic converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service is required.
Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II) Cybersecurity
Your vehicle is required to have an Onboard Diagnostic
system (OBD II) and a connection port to allow access to
information related to the performance of your emissions
controls. Authorized service technicians may need to ac-
cess this information to assist with the diagnosis and
service of your vehicle and emissions system.
WARNING!
• ONLY an authorized service technician should con-
nect equipment to the OBD II connection port in
order to diagnose or service your vehicle.
• If unauthorized equipment is connected to the OBD
II connection port, such as a driver-behavior tracking
device, it may:
• Be possible that vehicle systems, including safety
related systems, could be impaired or a loss of
(Continued)
278 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!(Continued)
vehicle control could occur that may result in an
accident involving serious injury or death.
• Access, or allow others to access, information
stored in your vehicle systems, including personal
information.
For further information, refer to “Cybersecurity” in the
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” section.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message
If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel
filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, a
“Check fuel cap” message will be displayed in the instru-
ment cluster display. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display”
in ”Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further
information. Tighten the gas cap until a clickingsound is
heard. This is an indication that the gas cap is properly
tightened.
Push the odometer reset button to turn the message off. If
the problem persists, the message will appear the next time
the vehicle is started. This might indicate a damaged cap. If
the problem is detected twice in a row, the system will turn
on the MIL. Resolving the problem will turn the MIL light
off.
EMISSIONS INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
PROGRAMS
In some localities, it may be a legal requirement to pass an
inspection of your vehicle’s emissions control system.
Failure to pass could prevent vehicle registration.
For states that require an Inspection and Mainte-
nance (I/M), this check verifies the “Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL)” is functioning and is not on
when the engine is running, and that the OBD II system is
ready for testing.
Normally, the OBD II system will be ready. The OBD II
system may notbe ready if your vehicle was recently
serviced, recently had a dead battery or a battery replace-
ment. If the OBD II system should be determined not ready
for the I/M test, your vehicle may fail the test.
Your vehicle has a simple ignition actuated test, which you
can use prior to going to the test station. To check if your
vehicle’s OBD II system is ready, you must do the following:
1. Cycle the ignition switch to the ON position, but do not crank or start the engine.
NOTE: If you crank or start the engine, you will have to
start this test over.
