Before listening to the radio, extend the antenna to
its full length for better reception and reproduction
quality. FM reception

tary static, flutter or station interference. If reception
continues to be unsatisfactory, switch to a stronger station. Installation of accessories

tronic control system to malfunction if they are incor-
rectly installed or if they are not suited for the ve- hicle.
