NOTE: Channels that may contain objectionable content can be blocked. Contact Sirius Customer Care at 888-539-7474 to discuss options for channel blocking or unblocking. Please have your ESN/SID information available.
Storing and Selecting Pre-Set Channels
In addition to the 10 AM and 10 FM pre-set stations, you may also commit 10 satellite stations to push button memory. These satellite channel pre-set stations will not erase any AM or FM pre-set memory stations. Follow the memory pre-set procedures that apply to your radio.
Using the PTY (Program Type) Button (if equipped)
Follow the PTY button instructions that apply to your radio.
PTY Button "SCAN"
When the desired program type is obtained, press the "SCAN" button within five seconds. The radio will play 7 seconds of the selected channel before moving to the next channel of the selected program type. Press the "SCAN" button a second time to stop the search.
NOTE: Pressing the "SEEK" or "SCAN" button while performing a music type scan will change the channel by one and stop the search. Pressing a pre-set memory button during a music type scan, will call up the memory channel and stop the search.
PTY Button "SEEK"
When the desired program is obtained, press the "SEEK" button within five seconds. The channel will change to the next channel that matches the program type selected.
Satellite Antenna
To ensure optimum reception, do not place items on the roof around the rooftop antenna location. Metal objects placed within the line of sight of the antenna will cause decreased performance. Larger luggage items should be placed as far forward as possible. Do not place items directly on or above the antenna.
Reception Quality
Satellite reception may be interrupted due to one of the following reasons.
• The vehicle is parked in an underground parking structure or under a physical obstacle.
148 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
Dense
tree coverage may interrupt reception in the
form of short audio
mutes.
Driving
under wide bridges or along tall buildings can
cause
intermittent reception.
Placing
objects over or too close to the antenna can
cause signal
blockage.
CASSETTE TAPE AND PLAYER MAINTENANCE
To keep the cassette tapes and player in good condition, take the following precautions:
Do
not use cassette tapes longer than C-90; otherwise,
sound
quality and tape durability will be greatly dimin
ished.
Keep
the cassette tape in its case to protect from
slackness and dust
when it is not in use.
Keep
the cassette tape away from direct sunlight, heat
and magnetic
fields such as the radio speakers.
Before
inserting a tape, make sure that the label is
adhering flatly to
the cassette.
5. A loose tape should be corrected before use. To rewind a loose tape, insert the eraser end of a pencil into the tape drive gear and twist the pencil in the required directions.
Maintain your cassette tape player. The head and capstan shaft in the cassette player can pick up dirt or tape deposits each time a cassette is played. The result of deposits on the capstan shaft may cause the tape to wrap around and become lodged in the tape transport. The other adverse condition is low or "muddy" sound from one or both channels, as if the treble tone control were turned all the way down. To prevent this, you should periodically clean the head with a commercially available WET cleaning cassette.
As preventive maintenance, clean the head about every 30 hours of use. If you wait until the head becomes very dirty (noticeably poor sound), it may not be possible to remove all deposits with a simple WET cleaning cassette.

CD/DVD DISC MAINTENANCE
To keep the CD/DVD discs in good condition, take the following precautions:
Handle
the disc by its edge; avoid touching the
surface.
If
the disc is stained, clean the surface with a soft cloth,
wiping
from center to edge.
Do
not apply paper, paper CD labels, or tape to the
disc; avoid
scratching the disc.
Do
not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, cleaners,
or
antistatic sprays.
Store the disc in its case after playing.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.
Do
not store the disc where temperatures may become
too high.
RADIO OPERATION AND CELLULAR PHONES
Under certain conditions, the cellular phone being On in your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance from your radio. This condition may be lessened or eliminated by relocating the cellular phone antenna. This condition is not harmful to the radio. If your radio performance does not satisfactorily "clear" by the repositioning of the antenna, it is recommended that the radio volume be turned down or off during cellular phone operation.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The controls for the heating and ventilation system in this vehicle consist of three rotary control knobs. These comfort controls can be set to obtain desired interior conditions.
NOTE: For the HVAC to operate efficiently and reduce the possibility of fog build up on the interior of the windows, the air exhausters should be kept clear at all times. The air exhausters are the slots located on the rear tailgate.

Operating Tips
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system in air conditioned vehicles must be protected with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion protection and to protect against engine overheating. A 50% solution of ethylene glycol antifreeze coolant in water is recommended.
Winter Operation
The air from the heater system will heat faster in cold weather if you use lower blower speeds until the engine warms up.
REAR WINDOW FEATURES — HARD TOP ONLY
Rear Window Defogger
To
turn the rear window defogger on, press the 
rocker switch. If you press the switch a

CAUTION!
Use
care when washing the inside of the rear window to prevent
damage to heating elements. Use a soft cloth and a mild washing
solution, wiping parallel to the heating elements. Also, keep all
objects a safe distance from the window to prevent damaging the
heating elements.
Rear
Window Wiper/Washer
To
utilize the rear wiper, press the switch to the first detent. To
activate the rear washer, depress the switch to the second detent.
The washer will continue to spray as long as the switch is held. The

wiper off, lift the bottom of the switch.
Adding Washer Fluid
The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers and the rear window washer is shared. It is located in the front of the engine compartment on the passenger side and should be checked for fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent (not radiator antifreeze) and operate the system for a few seconds to flush out the residual water.
