Sirius question

[sdmcwilliams]

I just got my Explorer with Sync and MFT the other day and I cannot figure out how to display the song title and artist on the main center touch screen. It only shows up on the small screen to the right of the speedo. Is there an option somewhere to change this? Right now it just shows the channel number and channel name.

Mine will display on the main radio screen that you get to by pressing the lower left corner of the home screen.

Mine shows the channel number and channel name and below that it has the area where you can enter in a channel number. I found an image online that does not show the keypad entry numbers and replaces it with the song name and band name. I am trying to figure out where that option is.

Sounds like you have "Direct Tune" turned on. Touch that spot on your screen and it will take away the numbers keypad and show Song/Artist info....I think.

Thanks. I will try that when I go to lunch soon.

No offense - but if you can't figure that one out, you will be really frustrated really soon at not being able to do a lot of other things.

Time to read your owners manuals, including the main one and the sync one, a couple times, wait a week, then do it again.

The more features you have, the more complex things are, and the owners manuals really do a decent job of explaining most of it.

I know I should have read the owner's manual but I figured it was easier and quicker to ask here. I have figured pretty everything else out. I downloaded a Sync/MFT quick guide and have that with me now.

I just could not get why it was not showing the song title, etc. I searched through every option and it was not there. I didn't even think about the direct dial button being highlighted.
