time data being transmitted by the GPS satellites. The
satellites’ clock is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This is

and daylight savings information is set.

Tune/Scroll Knob
In the List mode, the Tune/Scroll knob functions in a
similar manner as the scroll wheel on the iPod.
Turning the Tune/Scroll knob clockwise (forward) and
counterclockwise (backward) scrolls through lists, dis-
playing the track detail on the radio display. Once you
have the track to be played highlighted on the radio
display, press the Tune/Scroll knob to select and start
playing the track. By turning the Tune/Scroll knob fast,
you can jump through the list faster. During fast scroll,
you may notice a slight delay in updating the informa-
tion on the radio display.
During all List modes, the iPod will display all lists in
“wrap-around” mode. So if the track you wish to select is
at the bottom of the list, you just turn the Tune/Scroll
knob backward (counterclockwise) to get to the track
faster. Radio Preset Buttons
In the List mode, the radio preset buttons are used as
shortcuts to the following lists on the iPod
device.
•1 – Playlists
•2 – Artists
•3 – Albums
•4 – Genres
•5 - Audiobooks
•6 – Podcasts
After pressing a preset button, you will see the list you
are in on the top line and the first item in that list on the
second line.
To exit the List mode without selecting a track, press the
same preset button again to go back to Play mode.

RADIO OPERATION AND CELLULAR PHONES
Under certain conditions, the cellular phone being on in
your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance from
your radio. This condition may be lessened or eliminated
by relocating the cellular phone antenna. This condition
is not harmful to the radio. If your radio performance
does not satisfactorily “clear” by the repositioning of the
antenna, it is recommended that the radio volume be
turned down or off during cellular phone operation.
