The Chevy HHR allows preset sound options for its audio system. But when those preset options aren’t working for you, manually changing them can be the easiest option. Here’s how to manually adjust those audio system presets.

- Press a numbered button for 3 seconds
- Once there is a beeping sound, release the numbered button.
- Your station is now set to the numbered button you selected.
Tone Presets
- Press the EQ button for setting options to change preset tone settings.
- Press and hold the EQ button until the word MANUAL shows up on the screen.
- Now you can manually change the tone from the preset.
- You can also press the Tune or 🎵 knob to adjust.
Notes:

- 2007-2011 Models can change Bass, Midrange, and Treble
Volume Presets
The audio system saves your most recent volume setting.
- To manually adjust the volume, turn the knob to the right ▶️ to increase or the left ◀️ to decrease sound.
- Once you have a volume you like, it will stay on that volume the next time you turn on your car as long as you haven’t adjusted the dial.
