Subject:Key FOB Personalization Feature -- Radio Station Presets

Models:2004 Chevrolet Malibu



The purpose of this bulletin is to explain the personalization feature of the remote keyless entry system. Some customers may comment that the radio station presets change or do not remain set. Radio station presets can be customized to work with each remote key fob.

To program the radio presets:

  1. Unlock the doors using the key fob.
  2. Turn ignition to "Acc" or "On" position.
  3. Set the desired radio presets.
  4. Turn the ignition "Off".

Each time the key fob is used, the radio presets will resume the "programmed" presets for that remote. The second key fob can have different presets programmed. To program the second key fob, follow the steps listed above.
