Area Change

Use this to listen to the radio in the United States.

This car stereo is initially set to tune in frequency intervals of 9 kHz for AM and 50 kHz for FM, the standard calibrations outside the U.S. When using the unit in the U.S., use the following pro- cedure to switch the frequency steps and fre- quency range:

Instant Station Recall (ISR)

This function allows you to recall a specific radio station from any mode. Use it to find stations quickly when you want to hear specific informa- tion (such as traffic announcements) while driv- ing. The ISR station is set to 87.5 MHz upon ship- ment from the factory.
