If the region the vehicle will be driven in uses 10 kHz spacing on the AM band (i.e. 950, 960 etc.), set the Country Code to "USA". If the region uses 9 kHz spacing, has LW and MW Bands, and uses RDS (i.e. AF, PTY, TA, etc.), set the radio for "EUR". If neither of the previous settings apply, and the vehicle is not being driven in Japan, set the radio to "ROW". Vehicles driven in Japan should have the radio set to "JPN". The following chart list selected country codes and radio broadcast standards.

To enter the country code and EQ setting, use a scan tool.

OPERATION
The radio receiver operates on ignition switched battery current that is available only when the ignition switch is in the On or Accessory positions. The electronic digital clock function of the radio operates on fused battery current supplied through the IOD fuse, regardless of the ignition switch position.

For more information on the features, setting procedures, and control functions for each of the available factory-installed radio receivers, refer to the owner's manual.
