nRadio Reception
AM characteristics
AM signals bend around such things as
buildings or mountains and bounce off the
ionosphere. Therefore, they can reach
longer distances than FM signals. Because
of this, two stations may sometimes be
picked up on the same frequency at the
same time.
FM characteristics
An FM broadcast range is usually about 40–
50 km (25–30 miles) from the source.
Because of extra coding needed to break the
sound into two channels, stereo FM has
even less range than monaural (non-stereo)
FM. Signals from an FM transmitter are similar to
beams of light because they do not bend
around corners, but they do reflect.
Unlike AM signals, FM signals cannot travel
beyond the horizon. Therefore, FM stations
cannot be received at the great distances
possible with AM reception.
Atmospheric conditions can also affect FM
reception. High humidity will cause poor
reception. However, cloudy days may pro-
vide better reception than clear days.
Multipath noise
Since FM signals can be reflected by
obstructions, it is possible to receive both the
direct signal and the reflected signal at the
same time. This causes a slight delay in
reception and may be heard as a broken
sound or a distortion. This problem may also
be encountered when in close proximity to
the transmitter.

Audio Operation
Flutter/Skip noise
Signals from an FM transmitter move in
straight lines and become weak in valleys
between tall buildings, mountains, and other
obstacles. When a vehicle passes through
such an area, the reception conditions may
change suddenly, resulting in annoying
noise.
Weak signal noise
In suburban areas, broadcast signals
become weak because of distance from the
transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas is
characterized by sound breakup.Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a transmitter tower.
The broadcast signals are extremely strong,
so the result is noise and sound breakup at
the radio receiver.
Station drift noise
When a vehicle reaches the area of two
strong stations broadcasting at similar fre-
quencies, the original station may be tempo-
rarily lost and the second station picked up.
At this time there will be some noise from
this disturbance.

nRadio ON
Press a band selector button (FM/AM) to turn the radio on.
nBand selection
Successively pressing the band selector button (FM/AM) switches the bands as follows:
FM1 FM2 AM.
The selected mode will be indicated. If FM stereo is being received, STEREO will be dis-
played.
nTu n i n g
The radio has the following tuning methods: Manual, Seek, Scan, Preset channel, and Auto
memory tuning. The easiest way to tune stations is to set them on preset channels.
Note
l
If the FM broadcast signal becomes weak, reception automatically changes from STEREO
to MONO for reduced noise, and the STEREO indicator will go out.
l To clear the information, press the NAVI button.
l If the power supply is interrupted (fuse blows or the battery is disconnected), the preset
channels will be canceled.
nManual tuning
Pressing the seek tuning button will change the frequency higher or lower.
nSeek tuning
Pressing and holding the seek tuning button ( , ) will cause the tuner to seek a higher
or lower frequency automatically.
Note
If you continue to press and hold the button, the frequency will continue changing without
stopping.

Audio Operation
nScan tuning
Press the (SCAN) button to automatically sample strong stations.
Scanning stops at each station for about 5 seconds. To hold a station, press the (SCAN)
button again during this interval.
nPreset channel tuning
The 8 preset channels can be used to store 8 AM and 16 FM stations.
1. To set a channel first select AM, FM1, or FM2. Tune to the desired station.
2.Select any channel preset on-screen button for about 2 seconds until a beep sound is heard. The selected preset channel number and station frequency will be displayed. The
station is now held in the memory.
3.Repeat this operation for the other stations and bands you want to store. To tune one in the memory, select AM, FM1, or FM2 and then press its channel preset button. The station
frequency and the channel number will be displayed.
Note
If the power supply is interrupted (fuse blows or the battery is disconnected), the preset
channels will be canceled.
nAuto memory tuning
This is especially useful when driving in an area where the local stations are not known. Addi-
tional AM/FM stations can be stored without disturbing the previously set channels.
Select and hold the on-screen button for about 2 seconds until a beep sound is heard;
the system will automatically scan and temporarily store up to 8 stations with the strongest
frequencies in each selected band in that area.
nAudio Sound Adjustment
Refer to “Power/Volume/Sound Controls”.
nSatellite Radio (SAT)
Vehicles equipped with the separately purchased SIRIUS digital satellite radio unit have the
ability to receive channels of digital quality programming coast to coast via satellite. For infor-
mation on use, read the Satellite Radio Kit manual accompanying the SIRIUS digital satellite
radio unit. A subscription to SIRIUS digital satellite radio service is required (available in the
U.S. - Except Alaska and Hawaii) to enable this feature once the separately purchased SIR-
IUS digital satellite radio unit has been installed. For subscription and channel information, or
for digital satellite radio technical issues, contact SIRIUS directly at:
-Web: www.siriusradio.com

Attention: Customer Care
Include your Sirius Radio ESN (Electronic Serial Number) when subscribing or requesting
technical assistance. See the Satellite Radio Kit manual accompanying the SIRIUS unit for
complete satellite radio activation procedures and information on how to display the ESN#.
