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.
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 also
occur when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble on the
radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
provides digital radio reception. 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 SiriusXM
signal for a period of time. Some cellular
services may interfere with SXM reception
causing loss of signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making or
receiving calls, charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause static
interference in the radio. Unplug the mobile
device or turn it off if this happens.
Diversity Antenna System
The AM-FM antenna is a hidden self-tuning
system. It optimizes the AM and FM signals
relative to the vehicle's position and radio
station source. No maintenance or
adjustments are needed.
