To turn on the radio in a Cruze: After starting the vehicle, locate the central control screen, swipe right on the screen to find the radio operation interface, and then you can turn on the radio. The car radio is a voice entertainment configuration installed in the car, constructed from mechanical components, electronic devices, magnets, etc. It converts radio wave signals into electrical energy and can receive audio signals transmitted by radio stations, also known as wireless or broadcast. The Cruze is a compact sedan under Chevrolet, with dimensions of 4598 mm in length, 1797 mm in width, and 1477 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2685 mm. The Cruze applies the popular mix-and-match concept from the fashion world in its exterior and interior design. By blending different materials and styles, the car creates a new three-dimensional sculpture concept on the exterior and a unique sporty dual-cockpit style in the interior.

As a veteran Cruze owner with eight years of experience, I know the ins and outs of turning on the radio. After starting the car, press the round power button on the center console to light up the system; on the touchscreen version, simply tap the radio icon. If there's no response, the car might not be fully ignited or the system could be in sleep mode—try pressing it a few more times. Newer models also support steering wheel controls, where you can rotate the right-hand knob to select the source. I always save a few favorite stations in advance to avoid distractions while driving. Keep the audio system clean to prevent dust buildup, which can cause buttons to stick or malfunction.

I really enjoy tinkering with car tech, and setting up the radio in the Cruze is super easy. After starting the engine, just tap the center console screen to enter the entertainment system, then select the AM/FM option to turn on the radio. Newer models even support voice control—try saying "turn on the radio" for quick switching. You can still use the radio while streaming music via Bluetooth. If the screen becomes unresponsive, simply reboot the infotainment settings, and don’t forget to check for software updates to ensure smooth functionality. It’s a breeze to operate during your daily commute.

I use the Cruze radio every day when picking up and dropping off my kids, and the operation is very simple: start the car, press the knob button on the center console to select the broadcast mode, and then you can listen to the program. Occasionally, if it doesn't work, it may be because the volume is too low or the contact points are dirty, and a gentle tap will restore normal function. It is recommended to set the station before driving and avoid frequent adjustments to protect the children's hearing safety. Keeping the car's music system dry can prevent malfunctions and avoid unexpected troubles during the trip.
