The XM satellites are in orbit over the equator;
therefore, objects south of the vehicle may cause
satellite reception interr uptions. Satellite signals
are more likely to be bl ocked by tall buildings
and mountains the farther north you travel from
the equator.
You may experience reception problems under
the following circumstances:•In a location with an obstruction to the south
of your vehicle•In tunnels•On the lower level of a multi-tiered road•Large items are carried on the roof rack
