and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference 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 lowering the
treble setting to reduce the treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver 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 frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can bounce off the
ionosphere and be 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, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
HD RadioTMTechnology reception (for
U.S.)
HD Radio Technology reception needs to be
activated to receive HD Radio broadcasts.
“Radio Menu” (page 3-16)
This enables you to receive radio broadcasts
digitally (where available) , providing a better
quality sound with clear reception. When this
feature is not activated or HD Radio broadcasts
are not available, you will receive analog radio
(AM/FM) broadcasts.
Satellite radio reception (for U.S. and
Canada)
When the satellite radio is used for the first time
or the battery has been replaced, the satellite
radio may not work properly. This is not a
malfunction. Wait more than 10 minutes with
the satellite radio ON and the vehicle outside of
any metal or large building for the satellite radio
to receive all of the necessary data.
SiriusXM services require a subscription after
trial period and are sold separately or as a
package. The satellite service is available only in
the 48 contiguous USA and DC. SiriusXM
satellite service is also available in Canada; see
www.siriusxm.ca.
The satellite radio performance may be affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite
radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the satellite
antenna.
A buildup of ice on the satellite radio antenna can
affect satellite radio performance. Remove the
ice to restore satellite radio reception.
