If one of the following codes appears in the radio display when the radio is first turned on, it is equipped with the home and away feature.
^ DRIVER 1 HOME
^ DRIVER 2 HOME
^ DRIVER 1 AWAY
^ DRIVER 2 AWAY
This feature allows 2 different drivers to store and recall specific radio settings. The settings recalled by the radio are determined by which Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (1 or 2) is used to enter the vehicle. The number on the back of the RKE transmitter corresponds to driver 1 or driver 2. The radio settings automatically adjust to where they were last set by the identified driver. The settings can also be recalled by briefly pressing the MEMORY seat button 1 or button 2 located on the driver's door.
The radio can store home and away presets. Home and away presets allow you to use 1 set of preset radio settings in the area where you live, and another set when you go out of town. That way, you do not need to reprogram your presets every time you travel. With the radio off and the clock displayed, use FF and RW to select home or away presets. In order to select the away presets, press and hold FF for 5 counts until you hear a beep. The next time the radio comes on, the away presets are active. In order to select the home presets, press and hold RW for 5 counts until you hear a beep. The next time the radio comes on, the home presets are active. When battery power is removed and later applied, you do not have to reset your home radio presets because the radio remembers the presets. However, you do have to reset the away radio presets.
