FM Reception
Because FM transmission is based on frequency varia-
tions, interference that consists of amplitude variations
can be filtered out, leaving the reception relatively clear,
which is the major feature of FM radio.

Information Center (EVIC), the radio and steering
wheel radio controls (if equipped) will remain active
for 45 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
LOCK position. Opening either front door will cancel
this feature.
•For vehicles equipped with the EVIC, the radio and
steering wheel radio controls (if equipped) will remain
active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch is
turned to the LOCK position. Opening either front
door will cancel this feature. The time is program-
mable. For details, refer to “Key-Off Power Delay,”under “Personal Settings (Customer Programmable
Features)” under “Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
