Radio Reception
Frequency interference and static can occur during
normal radio reception if items such as cell phone
chargers, vehicle convenience accessories, and external
electronic devices are plugged into the accessory power
outlet. If there is interference or static, unplug the item
from the accessory power outlet.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range can cause station
frequencies to interfere with each other. For better radio
reception, most AM radio stations boost the power levels
during the day, and then reduce these levels during the
night. Static can also occur when things like storms and
power lines interfere with radio reception. When this
happens, try reducing the treble on the radio.
FM Stereo
FM signals only reach about 10 to 40 miles
(16 to 65 km). Although the radio has a built-in electronic
circuit that automatically works to reduce interference,
some static can occur, especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in and out.
XM™ Satellite Radio Service
XM Satellite Radio Service gives digital radio reception
from coast-to-coast in the 48 contiguous United States,
and in Canada. Just as with FM, tall buildings or hills can
interfere with satellite radio signals, causing the sound to
fade in and out. In addition, traveling or standing under
heavy foliage, bridges, garages, or tunnels may cause
loss of the XM signal for a period of time.

Maps
This section includes basic information that you need to
know about the map database.
The maps are stored on a DVD. The United States,
Canada, and Puerto Rico are contained on one disc.
Detailed Areas
Road network attributes are contained in the map
database for detailed areas. Attributes include
information such as street names, street address, turn
restrictions, etc. A detailed area includes all major
highways, service roads, and residential roads. The
detailed areas include points of interest (POI) such as:
restaurants, airports, banks, hospitals, police stations,
gas stations, tourist attractions, historical monuments,
etc. The map database may not include data for newly
constructed areas or map database corrections that are
completed after the production of the disc. The navigation
system provides full route guidance in the detailed
map areas.
Limited Guidance Areas
Any area that is not classied as detailed, is a limited
guidance area. Limited guidance streets are displayed
on the map but route guidance may not be given
on these streets. Some POI categories, such as the city
center POI category, and some street addresses are
included in the limited guidance areas.
The navigation system informs through voice prompts
when you are traveling into a limited guidance area
where route guidance is not available. The street maps
and the directional arrow displayed on the navigation
system can then be used to determine the remaining
route to your destination.
