Talking The radio is too confusing!


Hey everyone. When I turn on the car it starts blasting the spanish music station before the gps even loads up, usually quite loudly.

How do you change the start up "station"

What other custom options are there for start up?

Thanks a lot in advance!

It should default to the last station you were listening to. I never use the radio but I know the other sources start up where you left them.

My radio starts on the last station used at the same volume as when I turned off the car.

Ok, I can't take the guilt anymore. Every night, when the guy parks his car, I break in, change the station to 108 FM The Ocho! and crank the volume. It's so funny watching the poor guy get a jolt every morning.
