Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Remote Controls
There are two different remote controls for the infotainment system. One is used for audio, radio and TV remote control. The other is used for remote control of the navigation system.
The remote controls can be used to activate most of the functions which can be controlled via the keypad units on the infotainment control module (ICM) and via the buttons on the steering wheel.
The remote controls transmit infrared signals to the receiver unit which is in the left-hand keypad on the infotainment control module (ICM). The signals then go via the directly connected cable to the printed circuit board which controls the selected function.
