Multi-Band Antenna
If equipped, the roof antenna is for
AM, FM, and GPS (Global
Positioning System). Keep clear of
obstructions for clear reception.
Mobile Phone Usage
Mobile phone usage can cause
interference with the vehicle's radio.
Unplug the mobile phone or turn it
off if this occurs.
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. Static can occur when
things like storms and power lines
interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble
on the radio.
FM
FM signals only reach about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 mi). 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.
Audio Players
USB Port
The USB ports are in the center
console and are for data and
charging. If equipped, there are two
USB charge ports in the rear of the
center console. The infotainment
system can play the music files
contained in the USB storage
device or a device that supports
MTP or iPod/iPhone devices.
Caution
To avoid vehicle damage, unplug
all accessories and disconnect all
accessory cables from the vehicle
when not in use. Accessory
cables left plugged into the
vehicle, unconnected to a device,
could be damaged or cause an
electrical short if the unconnected
end comes in contact with liquids
or another power source such as
the accessory power outlet.
