Radio Reception
Usually, a problem with radio
reception does not mean there is a
problem with your radio - it is just the normal result of conditions
outside the vehicle. For example,
nearby buildings and terrain can
interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can
interfere with AM signals.
And of course, radio signals have a
limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal
will be. In addition, reception
conditions change constantly as
your vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception
problems that probably do not
indicate a problem with your radio.
FM Transmissions
Fading and drifting stations -
Generally, the effective range of FM
is about 40 km (25 miles). Once
outside this range, you may notice
fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio
transmitter. They are often
accompanied by distortion.
Multi-path - FM signals are
reflective, making it possible for two
signals to reach your antenna at the
same time. If this happens, the
signals will cancel each other out,
causing a momentary flutter or loss
of reception.
Static and fluttering - These occur
when signals are blocked by
buildings, trees, or other large
objects. Increasing the bass level
may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping - If the FM signal
you are listening to is interrupted or
weakened, and there is another
strong station nearby on the FM
band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original
signal can be picked up again.
AM Transmissions
Fading - AM broadcasts are
reflected by the upper atmosphere -
especially at night. These reflected
signals can interfere with those
received directly from the radio
station, causing the radio station to
sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference - When a
reflected signal and a signal
received directly from a radio station
are very nearly the same frequency,

11254764) - 2018 - crc - 12/5/16
102 Infotainment System
they can interfere with each other,
making it difficult to hear the
broadcast.
Static - AM is easily affected by
external sources of electrical noise,
such as high tension power lines,
lightning, or electrical motors. This
results in static.

Fixed Mast Antenna
Pull the antenna out to its full length
when using it.
To prevent breaking the antenna,
shorten it when passing through
areas with low clearance or through
a car wash.

Adjust the radio or CD player only
while the vehicle is stationary.
Adjusting them while the vehicle
is moving could cause an
accident. You and others could be
seriously injured.
Adjust the volume so that sound
outside of the vehicle can be heard.
If outside sound cannot be heard,
accidents may be harder to avoid.
Do not install a radio equipment
antenna near the vehicle's radio
antenna. This could cause
unwanted noise on the radio or
while playing a CD.
The radio or CD/USB player can be
used when the engine control switch
is in the "ACC" or "ON" position.
Continued use while the engine is
stopped may cause the battery to
discharge. Take care not to spill liquids, etc. on
the radio or CD player. It may cause
damage to the player.
Do not disassemble or apply oil to
the radio or CD player.
Disc
When it is cold or when it is raining,
the car windows will fog up and
cause dew (water drops) to form in
the vehicle compartment
(condensation). When this happens,
the audio may skip, and playback
will stop. Ventilate the vehicle
compartment and dehumidify before
resuming use.
The audio may skip due to violent
vibrations when the car is traveling
across harsh roads.
Never insert foreign objects into the
disc insertion slot.
Do not insert a wet disc into the
player.
This player uses an invisible laser
beam which could cause hazardous
radiation exposure if directed
outside the player. Be sure to
operate the player correctly.Playback may not be possible due
to recording conditions or disc
characteristics, scratches, dirt,
or deterioration.
