Preseting radio stations so i don't have to use the tuning dial everytime

You don't set these buttons. The traffic button scans Radio Data Service (RDS) information from radio stations near you for Traffic information. The Info button changes what RDS information is displayed for the current station.
The numbered preset buttons are the only buttons on the radio you can program. Too program a preset, tune the station desired and hold the numbered preset button down until you hear a beep.

My experience has always been to replace the current station preset with the new.
I recall two process:

1. The first locate the new station that you want and tune the radio to the station. Press and hold the specific preset for several seconds to replace the old station with the new.
2. Tune the radio to the new station and press the set button if so equipped and than press the preset button. In some radios they have group 1 and group 2. In that case press the set button once for set 1 and press it twice for set 2 and then press the preset button.

Hope this has helped?

Best to use the owner's manual. On most radios, simply tune in the station you want programmed and hold the preset button,1 thru 6, until the station blinks on the display. Once it blinks it is now programmed to that button number.

1. Connect the FM antenna and the AM loopantenna at the back of the unit. Rotate the AM loop for better reception.
2. Press AM/FM.
3. Tune a station by pressing TUNER+/-repeatedly until the desired station is found.Alternatively, you can press and hold thesame buttons down for about one second toactivate the automatic search function. Inthis mode the unit will automatically tunefrequencies until it finds a station.
4. Repeat step 3 to tune to another radio station.
5. Press AM/FMto select between FM and AM.Storing Radio Stations

The unit can store up to 40 radio stations (30 preset stations for FM and 10 preset stations for AM) in its memory. You can enter every single radio station yourself or the unit can store all available radio stations automatically in ascending order

Automatic Preset Programming
1. Press AM/FM to enter the AM/FM mode.
2. Press and hold AM/FM for two seconds to start automatic preset programming.
3. Radio frequencies will be browsed and radiostations stored automatically. When all the available radio stations are stored or all 40(30 preset stations for FM and 10 preset stations for AM) memory locations are full,the auto preset programming function will stop.

Manual Preset
1. Tune to a radio station (see "Manual tuning"for details).
2. Press MEMORY. While the Program Preset number is still flashing, input your desired preset number using the numeric buttons or press CH+/-, then press MEMORY to store it.

Retrieving Preset Stations
1. Press AM/FM to enter the Tuner mode.
2. Press CH +/- to search up or down for thepreset stations or directly press the numeric buttons.

First navigate to station you want to set as a preset. Then press the MEMO button. Use the TUNING buttons to scroll through the 30 different preset numbers. Press the MEMO button once more to store on the preset that you chose. Now you can press the PRESET button and navigate through you presets using the TUNING buttons.

If radio has save button then tune your station push save button then push a number on preset you want it saved to. The radio automatticlly stores the strongest station in your area.

If you have buttons on your radio that allow you to switch stations, it generally is simply a matter of pressing and holding the button in place for 10-15 seconds. The year, make, and model of the vehicle doesn't say much, as vehicle may have an aftermarket radio. Just find the station you want and if there is a are button presets, just push and hold it in. On most of my cars, old and newer that I have owned, confirmation of the setting is generally accompanied by a beep. Good luck! JD

most cars you just tune the station you want, then hold the preset button (that you want the station at) in until it beeps .

Tune to station to be set.

Press preset button and radio will mute, keep pressing until radio volum increases to normal again.

Preset should now be set for that button.

Repeat for other stations using other numbered buttons.

Try just holding the button of choice down. In my Audi, when I had a factory head unit, to set for example, preset 2, I'd just tune to the station I wanted to program, and then hold down the number 2 preset button until the display stopped blinking. It was then preset.
