REMINDER: To help minimize driver distraction, some audio system functionalities have been modified while the vehicle is in Drive, Reverse or moved out of Park.
Your vehicle’s audio system may differ from that in the illustration. For further audio system operation, refer to pages 21-28. For more information, refer to the Car Infotainment System Quick Reference Guide.
Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, any handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.

•
Volume level between different audio modes:
– When switching between audio modes (AM, FM, Bluetooth® Audio, etc.), the audio system saves the previous volume level you were listening to. For example, if you were listening to FM radio at volume level 20 then switched to BT Audio and adjusted the volume level to 30, the volume level will be at 20 when you switch back to FM radio
– When using Bluetooth® Audio, the overall volume is dependent on your device’s volume. If the volume is turned down low on your device it will remain low even if the system volume is turned up
•Prolonged use of the audio system in ACC mode may drain the vehicle’s battery
•A warning screen may appear periodically to remind users that the navigation system should be operated when the engine is running to prevent battery discharge
•At any time, you can interrupt the Voice Command Feedback by pressing the TALK button on the steering wheel
