Setting Preset or Favorite Stations
Before setting your preset or favorite
stations, shift the vehicle into Park.
Note: Engaging in extended searching
for specific audio stations or songs by
using buttons and knobs — or giving
extended attention to entertainment
tasks — can lead you to look away from
the road frequently or longer than usual.
Looking away from the road for pro-
longed periods may cause you to miss
seeing things on the road that you need
to see. Be sure to keep your eyes on
the road and mind on the drive — and
avoid engaging in extended searching
for specific items while driving.

1. Turn on the radio.
2. Press BAND to select FM1, FM2 or
