Radio Message

Security Lockout Active:

This message displays when the coded security system has been activated. Take the vehicle to your dealer/retailer for service.

Using the CD Player

The CD player plays standard sized CDs. Using CDs of a different size can damage the drive or disc, even if an adapter is used.

The CD player has a memory buffer that holds approximately seven seconds of music to prevent interruption while driving over bumpy surfaces. If the interruption lasts longer than seven seconds, the memory buffer can become empty and playback will be interrupted until the player has time to refocus, read the disc, and fill the buffer again.

When the player reaches the end of a CD, it automatically returns to the start and plays the CD again.

•CDs can be loaded with the ignition and the radio on or off.

•CDs will stay in the player if the ignition or radio is turned off.

•If the CD was the last source selected, it resumes playing when the radio is turned on.
