FM- 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz
RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS
There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
•Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the
weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.

•When the temperature of the DVD player becomes too hot, the high
temperature sensor circuit stops machine operation. DVD/CD HOT will
illuminate in the radio display.
•The DVD player will remain inactive until it cools to a normal
operating temperature. Length of time to cool will vary depending on
conditions.
General operating tips
•When the engine is not running, use the system sparingly. Otherwise,
it will run the battery down.
•When the ignition is turned to OFF, the Rear Seat Entertainment DVD
System is also turned OFF. When the ignition is turned ON, the
system will begin playback from the last selected media source when
the play control is pressed.
•To disable the DVD player, simultaneously press the 3 and 5 memory
presets on the radio face. To enable the DVD player again, press the 3
and 5 presets simultaneously.
•The DVD player is only capable of reading the bottom side of a disc.
When inserting a single sided disc, the label should be up. For a
multi-sided disc, the desired play side should be down when the disc
is inserted into the player.
•The DVD player is only capable of playback of DVDs and CDs. The
player is not compatible with CDR/RW media.
•DVDs are formatted by regions. This DVD system can only play region
1 DVDs (DVDs manufactured for U.S. and Canada).
This unit is designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75 in)
audio compact discs and DVDs only. Due to technical
incompatibility, certain recordable and re-recordable compact
discs may not function correctly when used in Ford DVD/CD
players. Irregular shaped discs, discs with a scratch protection
film attached, and discs with homemade paper (adhesive) labels
should not be inserted into the player. The label may peel and
cause the disc to become jammed. It is recommended that
homemade discs be identified with permanent felt tip marker
rather than adhesive labels. Ball point pens may damage discs.
Please contact your dealer for further information.
Inserting a CD/DVD
Inserting a CD/DVD into the DVD player automatically turns the power
ON and playback should begin.
The counter is automatically reset to 0:00:00.

AM/FM select
The AM/FM control works in radio,
CD and navigation modes.
AM/FM select in radio mode
This control allows you to select AM or FM frequency bands. Press the
control to switch between AM, FM1 or FM2 memory preset stations.
AM/FM select in CD mode
Press to stop CD play and begin radio play.
Radio reception factors:
•Distance/strength.The further an FM signal travels, the weaker it is.
The listenable range of the average FM station is approximately 40 km
(24 miles). This range can be affected by“signal modulation.”Signal
modulation is a process radio stations use to increase their
strength/volume relative to other stations.
•Terrain.Hills, mountains and tall buildings between your vehicle’s
antenna and the radio station signal can cause FM reception problems.
Static can be caused on AM stations by power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering
structure (out of its“shadow”) returns your reception to normal.
•Station overload.Weak signals are sometimes captured by stronger
signals when you pass a broadcast tower. A stronger signal may
temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play while the weak station
frequency is displayed.
AM/FM select in navigation mode
Press once when in navigation mode to return to the audio screen (while
the navigation function continues to work in the background). Press
