Changing radio type

If the LED flashes do not match the radio you have connected, you must 

manually program the BX-GM6 to tell it what radio it is connected to.

1)  After 3 seconds of turning the key on, press and hold the Volume Down button 

on the steering wheel until the L.E.D. on the BX-GM5 goes solid.

2)  Release the Volume Down button; the L.E.D. will go out indicating we are now 

in Changing Radio Type mode.

3)  Refer to the Radio Legend to know which radio number 

you would like to have programmed.

4)  Press and hold the “Volume-Up” button until the L.E.D. goes solid, then release. 

Repeat this step for the desired radio number you have selected.

5)  Once the desired radio number has been selected, press and hold the Volume 

Down button, on the steering wheel, until the L.E.D. goes solid. The L.E.D. will 

remain on for about 3 seconds while it stores the new radio information.

6)  Once the L.E.D. goes off, the Changing Radio Type mode will then end. You can 

now test the steering control wheel controls.

Note:

If at any time the user fails to press any button for a period longer than 

10 seconds, this process will abort.
