Condition/Concern Customer may comment that after turning the ignition off and opening the driver’s door that they can turn the radio on. Recommendation/Instructions Radio Operation: – The radio will work when the key is in ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY.

When the radio turns off after the 10 minutes it can be turned back on by pressing the power button. The radio can be turned off at any time by pressing the power button.
