Radio Personalization w/ Home and Away Feature

2006 Buick Terraza CXL, 3.5 L, AWDSECTION Radio Personalization w/ Home and Away Feature
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Chevrolet Monte Carlo and 2007 Chevrolet Impala. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This feature allows two 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 radio can store home and away presets. Home and away presets allow you to use one set of preset radio settings in the area where you live, and another set when you go out of town. You do not need to reprogram your presets every time you travel. To change between home and away presets, perform the following steps:

w/U2R or U2S

  1. Press the TUNE/SEL knob.
  2. Turn the TUNE/SEL knob until H/A HOME PRESETS is displayed.
  3. Press the TUNE/SEL knob to change.

w/UAV, U2Y, or U2X

  1. From the Radio menu, press the TUNE/SEL knob.
  2. Use the keys on the right to select Home P-Sets or Away P-Sets.

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.
