AM/FM RADIO
AM/FM Radio Limitations
The further you travel from an AM or FM
station, the weaker the signal and the
weaker the reception.
Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges,
tunnels, freeway overpasses, parking
garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with the
reception.
When you pass a ground-based broadcast
repeating tower, a stronger signal may
overtake a weaker one and result in the
audio system muting. Selecting a Radio Station

DIGITAL RADIO
What Is Digital Radio
HD Radio ™ technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio.
For additional information, visit
www .HDR a dio . c om .
HD Radio Technology is manufactured
under license from iBiquity Digital
Corporation and foreign patents. HD Radio
and the HD and HD Radio logos are
proprietary trademarks of DTS. The vehicle
manufacturer and DTS are not responsible
for the content sent using HD Radio
technology. Content may be changed,
added or deleted at any time at the station
owner's discretion.
How Does Digital Radio Work
Your system has a special receiver that
allows it to receive digital broadcasts in
addition to analog broadcasts. HD1 signifies the main programming status
and is available in both analog and digital
broadcasts. Other multicast stations are
only available digitally and could contain
new or different content.
Note:
When the system first receives an
HD1 station, it plays the station in the analog
version until it verifies the station is an HD
Radio station. Then it shifts to the digital
version.
Note: There is an audio mute delay when
switching to an HD2 or HD3 station because
the system has to reacquire and decode the
digital signal.
Digital Radio Limitations
If you are outside the reception area, the
system could not work.
If you are on the fringe of the reception
area, the station could mute due to weak
signal strength.
Note: If you are listening to HD1, the system
changes back to the analog broadcast until
the digital broadcast is available again. If
you are listening to any other multicast
channels, the station mutes and stays
muted unless it is able to connect to the
digital signal again.
Depending on the station quality, you could
hear a slight sound change when the
station changes between analog and
digital audio.
You cannot access a saved HD station if
your vehicle is outside the station ’s
reception area.
Switching Digital Radio Reception
On and Off
1. Press
Settings on the touchscreen.
2. Press

text appears as a button. Press the button
to cycle through all of the HD stations on
that specific frequency.
SATELLITE RADIO
What Is Satellite Radio
Your factory-installed SiriusXM radio
system includes a limited subscription
term, which begins on the date of sale or
lease of your vehicle. See an authorized
dealer for availability. For additional information about extended
subscription terms, visit www .SiriusXM. c om
in the United States,
www .SiriusXM. c a in

liable to you or any third party for any such
modification, suspension or termination.
Satellite Radio Limitations
For optimal reception performance, keep
the antenna clear of snow and ice build-up
and keep luggage and other material as
far away from the antenna as possible.
Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges,
tunnels, freeway overpasses, parking
garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with your
reception.
When you pass a ground-based
broadcast-repeating tower, a stronger
signal may overtake a weaker one and
could result in the audio system muting.
Your display could show an error message
to indicate the interference.
