• A/C On/Off: Activate or deactivate the air conditioning system.

Specific functionality may vary depending on your aftermarket radio model and the programming steps followed during installation.

Maintenance

The PAC RPK4-HD1101 kit is designed for long-term reliability with minimal maintenance. Keep the dash panel clean using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the surface or electronic components. Ensure all connections remain secure, especially after any vehicle maintenance that might involve the dashboard area.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your PAC RPK4-HD1101 kit, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Power to Radio/Kit: Check the vehicle's fuse box for blown fuses. Verify all power and ground connections to the PAC interface module and the aftermarket radio.

• Steering Wheel Controls Not Working: Confirm that the steering wheel control output from the PAC module is correctly connected to your aftermarket radio's steering wheel input. Re-program the steering wheel controls as per the instructions in the detailed manual. Ensure your radio supports external steering wheel control interfaces.
• Incorrect Temperature Display: Check the settings for Fahrenheit/Celsius display in the kit's configuration. Refer to the manual for adjustment procedures.
