Automatic operation (AUTO)
The AUTO mode may be used year-round as the
system automatically controls constant tempera-
ture, air flow distribution and fan speed.
To turn off the climate control, push the A/C-
Heater ON·OFF button.
The same operating mode (Heater or A/C) that
was active when the system is turned off is active
when system is turned back on.
While operating the climate control in the AUTO
mode, selecting any other climate control button
de-activates the AUTO mode and activates
manual mode.
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating:
The dehumidified heating mode can be used to
keep the windows from fogging. In this mode, the
heat pump compressor is used in A/C mode for
dehumidifying the air instead of heating it. The
PTC heater is also used in conjunction to heat the
air. This mode will increase energy consumption
and therefore reduce range.

Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position
(usually in conjunction with increased distance
from the station transmitter) , static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control to reduce treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and reflected
signals reach the receiver at the same time. The
signals may cancel each other, resulting in mo-
mentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics, AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmitter
to receiver.Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION
When the satellite radio is used for the first time
or the battery has been replaced, the satellite
radio may not work properly. This is not a mal-
function. Wait more than 10 minutes with satellite
radio ON and the vehicle outside of any metal or
large building for satellite radio to receive all of
the necessary data.
No satellite radio reception is available and “NO
SAT” is displayed when the SAT band option is
selected unless optional satellite receiver and
antenna are installed and a SiriusXM Satellite
Radio service subscription is active. Satellite ra-
dio is not available in Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be affected if
cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite radio
signal.If possible, do not put cargo over the satellite
antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio antenna can
affect satellite radio performance. Remove the
ice to restore satellite radio reception.

AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
Compact disc (CD) player
CAUTION
Do not force a compact disc into the CD insert slot. This could damage the
CD and/or CD player.
Trying to load a CD with the CD door closed could damage the CD and/or
CD player.
Only one CD can be loaded into the CD player at a time.
Only use high quality 4.7 in (12 cm) round
discs that have the “COMPACT disc DIGI-
TAL AUDIO” logo on the disc or packag-
ing.
During cold weather or rainy days, the
player may malfunction due to the humid-
ity. If this occurs, remove the CD and de-
humidify or ventilate the player com-
pletely.
The player may skip while driving on
rough roads.
The CD player sometimes cannot function
when the compartment temperature is ex-
tremely high or low. Decrease/increase
the temperature before use.
Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight.
CDs that are in poor condition or are dirty,
scratched or covered with fingerprints
may not work properly.
The following CDs may not work properly.
– Copy control compact discs (CCCD)
– Recordable compact discs (CD-R)
– Rewritable compact discs (CD-RW)
Do not use the following CDs as they may
cause the CD player to malfunction: – 3.1 in (8 cm) discs with an adapter
– CDs that are not round
– CDs with a paper label
– CDs that are warped, scratched, or
have abnormal edges
This audio system can only play prere-
corded CDs. It has no capability to record
or burn CDs.
If the CD cannot be played, one of the
following messages will be displayed.
CHECK DISC:
Confirm that the CD is inserted correctly
(the label side is facing up, etc.) .
Confirm that the CD is not bent or warped
and it is free of scratches.

PRESS EJECT:
This is an error due to excessive tempera-
ture inside the player. Remove the CD by
pressing the EJECT button. After a short
time, reinsert the CD. The CD can be played
when the temperature of the player returns
to normal.
UNPLAYABLE:
The file is unplayable in this audio system
(only MP3 orWMA(if so equipped) CD) .
Compressed audio files (MP3/WMA)
Terms:
MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures Ex-perts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the most
well-known compressed digital audio file for-
mat. This format allows for near “CD quality”
sound, but at a fraction of the size of normal
audio files. MP3 conversion of an audio track
from CD-ROM can reduce the file size by ap-
proximately a 10:1 ratio with virtually no percep-
tible loss in quality. MP3 compression removes
the redundant and irrelevant parts of a sound
signal that the human ear doesn’t hear. WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA)* is a
compressed audio format created by Microsoft
as an alternative to MP3. The WMA codec
offers greater file compression than the MP3
codec, enabling storage of more digital audio
tracks in the same amount of space when com-
pared to MP3s at the same level of quality.
Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number of bits per second used by a digital music file. The size
and quality of a compressed digital audio file is
determined by the bit rate used when encoding
the file.
Sampling frequency — Sampling frequency is the rate at which the samples of a signal are
converted from analog to digital (A/D conver-
sion) per second.
Multisession — Multisession is one of the meth- ods for writing data to media. Writing data once
to the media is called a single session, and
writing more than once is called a multisession.
ID3/WMA Tag — The ID3/WMA tag is the part of the encoded MP3 or WMA file that contains
information about the digital music file such as
song title, artist, encoding bit rate, track time
duration, etc. ID3 tag information is displayed
on the Artist/song title line on the display. * Windows® and Windows Media® are regis-
tered trademarks and trademarks in the United
States of America and other countries of Micro-
soft Corporation of the USA.

Playback order chartPlayback order:
Musical playback order of a CD with MP3 or
WMA files is as illustrated.
The names of folders not containing MP3 or
WMA files are not shown in the display.
If there is a file in the top level of the disc, “Root Folder” is displayed.
The playback order is the order in which the files were written by the writing software. Therefore,
the files might not play in the desired order.
