CD DJ
Your vehicle is equipped with a CD DJ (CD changer). It is located in the
center console.
Radio power must be turned on to play the CDs in the CD DJ. The
magazine may be stored in the glove box when not being used.
The CD magazine may be inserted or ejected with the radio power off.

damage the unit.
Keep the CD DJ door closed. Coins and foreign objects will damage the
CD player and void your audio system warranty.
The CD magazine does not have to be full (all 6 disks) for the CD DJ to
function.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75 in)
audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility, certain
recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not function
correctly when used in Ford CD players. Irregular shaped CDs,
CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with
homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into
the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to become
jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified
with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels.
Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please contact your dealer for
further information.
To access the CD DJ:

Principles of GPS (Global Positioning System) operation
Your Vehicle Navigation System directs you based on information derived
from satellites, road maps stored on the CD, sensors in your vehicle and
the desired destination. The system compiles all necessary information to
guide you to your selected destination. Space satellites determine the
vehicle’s current location and transmit position and time signals to your
car.
If the vehicle has been parked for a long period of time, the navigation
function may be temporarily unresponsive. The navigation system will
operate reliably again once GPS reception is available in a few minutes.
Limited GPS reception
System performance may be adversely affected if GPS reception is
interrupted or interference occurs over a distance of several miles. The
following are possible causes for GPS reception being interrupted. If the
vehicle is:
•in multi-story parking garages
•in tunnels and under bridges
•in between high buildings
•by forests or tree-lined avenues
•in heavy rain showers and thunderstorms
