If your vehicle has this feature, some audio controls can be adjusted at the steering wheel. They include the following:

(Seek/Scan): Press the seek arrows to go to the previous or the next station and stay there. To scan stations, press and hold either scan arrow for two seconds until FREQUENCY SCAN displays. The radio goes to a station, plays for a few seconds, then goes to the next station. Press either scan arrow again to stop scanning. The sound mutes while seeking or scanning. The radio seeks or scans stations only with a strong signal that are in the selected band. When a CD is playing, press either scan arrow to go to the previous or next track, if more than eight seconds have played. If either scan arrow is held or pressed more than once, the player continues moving backward or forward through the CD.
