Changing Radio Type; Remapping The Steering Wheel Control Buttons - Axxess AX-CH5-SWC Installation Instructions Manual

Attention: The Axxess Updater App can also be used to program the following (3) sub-sections as
well, pending that the interface has been initialized and programmed.

Changing radio type

If the LED flashes do not match the radio you have connected, you must manually program the
AX-CH5-SWC to tell it what radio it is connected to.
1. After (3) seconds of turning the key on, press and hold the Volume-Down button on the
steering wheel until the L.E.D. in the AX-CH5-SWC goes solid.
2. Release the Volume-Down button; the L.E.D. will go out indicating we are now in Changing
Radio Type mode.
3. Refer to the Radio Legend (next page) to know which radio number you would like to have
programmed.
4. Press and hold the Volume-Up button until the L.E.D. goes solid, and then release. Repeat this
step for the desired radio number you have selected.
5. Once the desired radio number has been selected, press and hold the Volume-Down button on
the steering wheel until the L.E.D. goes solid. The L.E.D. will remain on for about (3) seconds
while it stores the new radio information.
6. Once the L.E.D. goes off, the Changing Radio Type mode will then end. You can now test the
steering control wheel controls.
Note: If at any time the user fails to press any button for a period longer than (10) seconds,
this process will abort.

Remapping the steering wheel control buttons

Let's say you have AX-CH5-SWC initialized and you want to change the button
assignment for the steering wheel controls. For example, you would like "Seek-Up" to be
"Mute". Follow the steps below to remap the steering wheel control buttons:
1. Ensure the AX-CH5-SWC is visible so you can see the L.E.D. flashes to confirm button
recognition.
Tip: Turning the radio off is recommended.
2. Within the first 20 seconds of turning the ignition on, press and hold the "Volume-Up"
button on the steering wheel until the L.E.D. goes solid.
3. Release "Volume-Up", the L.E.D. will then go out; "Volume-Up" has now been
programmed.
4. Follow the list in the Button Assignment Legend, to reference the order in which the
steering wheel control buttons need to be programmed.
