Replying to: vbbuilt (Aug 24, 2007 4:37 am) Doo you mean I could have 18 preset stations for Sirus SAT or 6/Sirus 6/AM and 6/FM I only listen to SAT Radio, no AM or FM My Ridgeline Truck came with XM Sat and you can preset 12 XM stations which is really nice. Thanking you in advance for your help and advice.

I see if I would have read further I would have learned that Sirus does have 18 presets and quite a few of AM and FM. which I donot really care about. All I have to do now if figure how to do it. P.S. I followed the directions and was able to change the time on my clock. Thanks for the directions, they were very easy to follow. Great information on this panel, reminds me of the Ridgeline Owners Club.com |

You push the SAT button to get to each screen sequentially. There are no differences amongst the 3 screens. I use that setup to organize my presets. I like Rock, so SR1 I use for my Rock favs. SR2 I set for contemporary music channels and the 3rd one I set up for Dance channels. Hope that clears up the confusion! Vince. |

Replying to: musicman2u (Aug 26, 2007 10:04 pm) Out of the box, Mazda designed their OEM NAV to operate with a specially designed Sirius receiver. If you purchase the NAV and purchase SAT, Mazda only offer SIRIUS, either as a factory option or dealer-installed. Fully integrated, Sirius not displays channel info on the main NAV display, but portions of XM info are also displayed on the upper deck dashboard. Also, the steering column buttons switch to the SIRIUS SAT, control volumn and control the presets. I don't know if XM tuner boxes can be integrated into the NAV inputs. If so, will pushing the SAT button route XM channel info to the NAV display and the dashboard displays? Will steering column controls work with XM? Don't know...that'd be an interesting experiment. You can always opt for the FM modulator type that XM offers. But you won't be able to use the SAT buttons, steering column controls, nor the NAV/Dashboard displays. Plus you get the challenge of finding an empty FM frequency which can be difficult in urban areas. As for MP3, you're right...no options. That's a serious shortcoming in Mazda design. Lot's of people on this forum gripe about it. Hope this info helps! Vince. |

Hi, because my new job will pay to move my CX-7 to Italy, I was wondering if anyone knows what I would have to do to update the maps so that my navigation system can work there. I know Italy does sell the CX-7 there (at over #36,000 Euro). But can a delership there make an update? Or can I buy the CDs or DVDs and make the update myself? Thanks!

Replying to: nikster (Oct 15, 2007 1:49 pm) So, after you read the procedures, does it seem simple and inexpensive? Thanks! Gerald |
