Default Radio on and engine off?

Hey guys,

Got myself a grad present, 09 370z. I noticed on youtube people have their instruments on and radio playing without the engine running. I can't turn on my radio without running the engine... is this a setting i have to change or did i miss something?

Thanks

Radek

Push the start button once, it will switch to acc mode, this will allow you to have the radio on.

I gotta check - you need to hit it twice to get the instrument clusters to light up, right?

And yeah, just once for the radio...

The real trick is to turn the engine off while continuing to listen to the radio. Sort of a slow double tap.
