If CALIBRATE appears on the display it means that your radio has not been configured properly for your vehicle and must be returned to the dealership for service. Theft-Deterrent Feature Non-RDS Radios (If Equipped) Personal Choice Radio Controls (If Equipped) With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest radio settings as adjusted the last time your vehicle was operated. This feature allows two different drivers to store and recall their own radio settings for AM and FM presets, last tuned station, volume, tone and audio source (radio, cassette or CD). The settings recalled by the radio are determined by which transmitter was used to enter the vehicle. After the UNLOCK button is pressed on the transmitter and the ignition is in ON, the radio settings will automatically adjust to where they were last set by the identified driver. All vehicles are shipped with this feature on. This feature can be disabled by your dealer if desired. THEFTLOCKR is designed to discourage theft of your radio. The feature works automatically by learning a portion of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
