radio JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2007 WK / 3.G User Guide

When the obstacle is detected at a distance of about 59
inches (150 cm) from the rear fascia, the outermost LEDs
of the warning display will be ON with increased bright-
ness. Along with the LED, a half second tone will occur.
As the distance of the detected obstacle to the rear fascia
decreases, more LEDs are illuminated. When the warning
display has the first 5 yellow LEDs ON, the warning
display will actuate an intermittent tone for about 10
seconds. The radio will be muted while the tone is
actuated. The intermittent tone will increase in frequency
as each additional LED is lit.
When the detected obstacle is about 11.8 inches (30 cm)
from the rear fascia, the warning display will actuate a
continuous tone for about 10 seconds, and it will turn ON
all 8 LEDs, including both RED LEDs, on the correspond-
ing side of the display. The radio will be muted while the
tone is actuated.When the obstacle is less than 11.8 inches (30 cm) from
the rear fascia, the warning display will either have all 8
LEDs ON (obstacle detected) or it will have only the
outermost LEDs ON with decreased brightness (obstacle
not detected), depending on the location of the obstacle.
Enable/Disable the Rear Park Assist System
The Rear Park Assist System can be enabled and disabled
with a switch located in the switch bank of the instru-
ment panel.

REAR CAMERA — IF EQUIPPED
Vehicles with a Navigation radio may be equipped with
a rear view camera (located on the rear liftgate) that
allows you to see an on-screen image (on the navigation
radio screen) of the rear of your vehicle whenever the
vehicle is put into R (Reverse).
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when
using the rear camera system. Always check care-
fully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or
blind spots before backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
If snow, ice, mud, or anything else builds up on the
camera lens. Clean the lens, rinse with water, and dry
with a soft cloth.
Turning the Rear Camera On
1. To access the rear camera mode, select “Rear Camera”
at the Systems Settings screen and press ENTER. Refer to
your “Navigation User’s Manual” for detailed operating
instructions.
2. Select “ON” at the “Rear Camera” screen. Highlight
“DONE” and press ENTER. The rear camera is now
enabled.
3. When the vehicle is shifted into R (Reverse), the
CAUTION screen will appear, followed by an image of
the rear of the vehicle.
4. When the vehicle is shifted out of R (Reverse), the rear
camera mode is exited and the Navigation or Audio
screen appears again.

Programming HomeLink
NOTE:When programming a garage door opener, it is
advised to park outside the garage. It is also recom-
mended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to
HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency signal.
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) fea-
tures a driver-interactive display which includes
HomeLink system messages. The EVIC is located on the
bottom of the tachometer.
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons, and
release only when the EVIC display shows “CHANNELS
CLEARED” (after 20 seconds).Do nothold the buttons
for longer than 30 seconds anddo notrepeat step one to
program a second and/or third hand-held transmitter to
the remaining two HomeLink buttons.

Canadian Programming/Gate Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals totime-out(or quit) after several seconds of
transmission which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming.
Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are
designed totime-outin the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using theProgram-
mingprocedures (regardless of where you live),replace
Programming HomeLinkstep 3with the following:
NOTE:If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
cyclingprocess to prevent possible overheating.
3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button
while youpress and release every two seconds(cycle)
your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has
successfully been accepted by HomeLink. The EVICdisplay will show “CHANNEL X TRAINED” (where X is
Channel 1, 2, or 3). Proceed withProgrammingstep
four to complete.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the
trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting,
etc.). For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time. In the event that
there are still programming difficulties or questions,
contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-
3515.
Erasing HomeLink Buttons
To erase programming from the three buttons (individual
buttons cannot be erased but can bereprogrammed-
note below), follow the step noted:

To set the variance: Turn the ignition ON and set the
display to “Compass/Temperature.” Press the C/T but-
ton for approximately 5 seconds. The last variance zone
number will be displayed. Press and hold the STEP
button for 1 second to select the new variance zone and
press the RESET button to resume normal operation.
RADIO GENERAL INFORMATION
Radio Broadcast Signals
Your new radio will provide excellent reception under
most operating conditions. Like any system, however, car
radios have performance limitations, due to mobile op-
eration and natural phenomena, which might lead you to
believe your sound system is malfunctioning. To help
you understand and save you concern about these “ap-
parent” malfunctions, you must understand a point or
two about the transmission and reception of radio sig-
nals.

Two Types of Signals
There are two basic types of radio signals... AM or
Amplitude Modulation, in which the transmitted sound
causes the amplitude, or height, of the radio waves to
vary... and FM or Frequency Modulation, in which the
frequency of the wave is varied to carry the sound.
Electrical Disturbances
Radio waves may pick up electrical disturbances during
transmission. They mainly affect the wave amplitude,
and thus remain a part of the AM reception. They
interfere very little with the frequency variations that
carry the FM signal.
AM Reception
AM sound is based on wave amplitude, so AM reception
can be disrupted by such things as lightning, power lines
and neon signs.
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.
NOTE:The radio, steering wheel radio controls (if
equipped), and 6 disc CD/DVD changer (if equipped)
will remain active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition
switch has been turned off. Opening a vehicle front door
will cancel this feature.
