Speed Compensated Volume (SCV):
The radio has Speed Compensated Vol-

VOLUM (volume) label on the radio dis-
play.
4) Press the pushbutton under the desired
SCV setting (OFF, Low, Med (medium),
or High) to select the level of radio vol-
ume compensation. The display times
out after approximately 10 seconds.
Each higher setting allows for more
radio volume compensation at faster
vehicle speeds.
