Playing the Radio
(Power/Volume): Press to turn the system on and off. Turn to increase or decrease the volume.
For vehicles with a Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) System, press and hold for more than two seconds to turn off the entire radio and RSE system and to start the parental control feature.

When the ignition is in the OFF position, press to display the
time.
For vehicles with XM, MP3, WMA, or RDS features, press to display additional text information related to the current FM-RDS or XM station;
or CD, MP3, or WMA song.

Speed Compensated Volume (SCV): The Speed Compensated Volume (SCV) feature automatically adjusts the radio volume to compensate for road and wind noise as the vehicle speeds up or slows down, so that the volume level is consistent.

3. Press the softkey under the AUTO VOLUM (automatic volume) tab on the radio display.
