What does 'seektrack' mean on a car?
2 Answers
The 'seektrack' on a car refers to the button for switching radio channels. When the driver wants to change the channel, pressing it once will switch to the next channel. In addition to 'seektrack', there are other buttons on the car. These include 'mute' for silencing, 'mode' for selecting modes, 'ams' for speed-sensitive volume, 'vol' for volume control, 'band' for channel selection, 'scan' for radio station search, 'sel' for selection, 'rpt' for repeat playback, and 'rdm' for random playback. Inside the car, you can listen to music not only by playing CDs but also by connecting via Bluetooth. Simply turn on the car's Bluetooth and pair it for a wireless connection, which is convenient to operate, though the sound quality may be slightly inferior compared to CDs. Alternatively, you can use a USB drive or an AUX audio cable to play music.
I've been driving for over a decade and frequently use the Seek/Track buttons on the audio system. When listening to the radio, pressing the Seek button immediately jumps to the next clear station frequency; when playing music, pressing the Track button directly switches to the next song. This feature is especially practical during highway driving—keeping both hands on the wheel while operating it is much safer than looking down for screen buttons. Some car models combine both functions into a single button: a short press for Track (song skip) and a long press for Seek (station search), which requires adaptation based on the vehicle's manual. Modern models even intelligently pause songs automatically when reversing!
