✽NOTICE
• If you install an aftermarket HID
lighting system, your vehicle’s
audio and electronic devices may
malfunction.
• Prevent chemicals such as per-
fume, cosmetic oil, sun cream,
hand cleaner, and air freshener
from contacting the interior parts
as they may cause damage or dis-
colouration.
Antenna (if equipped)
When the radio power switch is
turned on whilst the ignition switch is
in either the “ON” or “ACC” position,
your vehicle will receive both AM and
FM broadcast signals through the
antenna in the rear window glass or
the antenna on the roof (if equipped).

CAUTION
• Do not clean the inside of the
rear window glass with a
scraper to remove foreign
deposits as this may cause
damage to the antenna ele-
ments.
• Avoid adding metallic coat-
ings such as Ni, Cd, and so
on. These can disturb receiv-
ing AM and FM broadcast sig-
nals.

How vehicle audio works
AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. This signal is then received by
the radio and sent to your vehicle
speakers.
When a strong radio signal has
reached your vehicle, the precise
engineering of your audio system
ensures the best possible quality
reproduction. However, in some
cases the signal coming to your vehi-
cle may not be strong and clear.This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions in
the area.
AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broad-
casts. This is because AM radio
waves are transmitted at low fre-
quencies. These long, low frequency
radio waves can follow the curvature
of the earth rather than travelling
straight out into the atmosphere. In
addition, they curve around obstruc-
tions so that they can provide better
signal coverage.

Using a mobile phone or a two-
way radio
When a mobile phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
use the mobile phone at a place as
far as possible from the audio equip-
ment.
Caring for disc
• If the temperature inside the vehicle
is too high, open the windows to
ventilate the vehicle before using the
system.
• It is illegal to copy and use
MP3/WMA files without permission.
Use CDs that are created only by
lawful means.
• Do not apply volatile agents, such as
benzene and thinner, normal clean-
ers and magnetic sprays made for
analogue discs onto CDs.
• To prevent the disc surface from get-
ting damaged, hold CDs by the
edges or the centre hole only.
• Clean the disc surface with a piece
of soft cloth before playback (wipe it
from the centre to the outside edge).
• Do not damage the disc surface or
attach pieces of sticky tape or paper.
• Make certain only CDs are inserted
into the CD player (Do not insert
more than one CD at a time).
• Keep CDs in their cases after use to
protect them from scratches or dirt.
CAUTION
When using a communication
system such as a mobile phone
or a radio set inside the vehicle,
a separate external antenna
must be fitted. When a mobile
phone or a radio set is used
with an internal antenna alone,
it may interfere with the vehi-
cle's electrical system and
adversely affect safe operation
of the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not use a mobile phone
whilst driving. Stop at a safe
location to use a mobile phone.
