Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves
away from a station transmitter, the sig-
nals will tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interfer-
ence from buildings, large hills or due to
antenna position, usually in conjunction
with increased distance from the station
transmitter, static or flutter can be heard.
This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control counterclockwise to reduce
treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the re-
flective characteristics of FM signals, di-
rect and reflected signals reach the re-
ceiver at the same time. The signals may
cancel each other, resulting in momentary
flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION
AM signals, because of their low fre-
quency, can bend around objects and
skip along the ground. In addition, the
signals can be bounced off the iono-
sphere and bent back to earth. Because
of these characteristics. AM signals are
also subject to interference as they travel
from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is
passing through freeway underpasses or
in areas with many tall buildings. It can
also occur for several seconds during
ionospheric turbulence even in areas
where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, elec-
trical power lines, electric signs and even
traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION (if so
equipped)
When the satellite radio is first installed
or the battery has been replaced, the sat-
ellite radio may not work properly. This is
not a malfunction. Wait more than 10 min-
utes with satellite radio ON for satellite
radio to receive all of the necessary data.
No satellite radio reception is available
unless optional satellite receiver and an-
tenna are installed and an XM
or
SIRIUS
TM
satellite radio service subscrip-
tion is active.
Satellite radio is not available in Alaska,
Hawaii and Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be af-
fected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the sat-
ellite antenna.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
Compact Disc (CD) player
O
Do not force a compact disc into the CD
insert slot. This could damage the CD

O
Trying to load a CD with the CD door
closed could damage the CD and/or CD
changer.
O
During cold weather or rainy days, the
player may malfunction due to the hu-
midity. If this occurs, remove the CD
and dehumidify or ventilate the player
completely.
O
The player may skip while driving on
rough roads.
O
The CD player sometimes cannot func-
tion when the passenger compartment
