Ford Mustang (2005-2014) Owners Manual: AM/FM/CD/Sirius satellite radio

WARNING: Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, crash and injury. We strongly recommend that you use extreme caution when using any device that may take your focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe operation of your vehicle. We recommend against the use of any hand-held device while driving and encourage the use of voice-operated systems when possible.

Make sure you are aware of all applicable local laws that may affect the use of electronic devices while driving.

Note: Some features, such as Sirius satellite radio, may not be available in your location. Check with your authorized dealer.

A. Memory presets:

• Store your favorite stations for later access. When tuned to any station, press and hold a preset button until sound returns and PRESET # SAVED appears in the display.
• Save presets automatically by using the autoset feature. Press MENU repeatedly until AUTO PRESET ON/OFF appears in the display. Use the SEEK buttons to turn AUTO PRESET to ON, and either wait five seconds for the search to initiate or press OK to immediately start the search. If you press another control within those five seconds, the search does not start. The system fills the presets with the 10 strongest stations; the station stored in preset 1 begins playing.
