Information
For some manufacturers’ cellular phones,
the system may not warn you even though
the cellular phone is left on the wireless
charging unit. This is due to the particular
characteristic of the cellular phone and
not a malfunction of the wireless charging.
NOTICE
• The wireless cellular phone charging
system may not support certain
cellular phones, which are not
verified for the Qi specification (
).
•
When placing your c

ellular phone
on the charging mat, position the
phone in the middle of the mat for
optimal charging performance. If
your cellular phone is off to the side,
the charging rate may be less and in
some cases the cellular phone may
experience higher heat conduction.
•
In some cases, the wireless char

ging
may stop temporarily when the
Remote Key or Smart Key is used,
either when starting the vehicle or
locking/unlocking the doors, etc.
•
The wireless char

ging process may
temporarily stop, when temperature
abnormally increases inside the
wireless cellular phone charging
system. Stop the charging cellular
phone and wait until temperature
falls to a certain level.
•
The wireless char

ging process may
temporarily stop when there is
any metallic item, such as a coin,
between the wireless cellular phone
charging system and the cellular
phone. •
When charging some c

ellular phones
with a self-protection feature,
the wireless charging speed may
decrease and the wireless charging
may stop.
•
If the c
ellular phone has a thick
cover, the wireless charging may not
be possible.
•
If the c
ellular phone is not
completely contacting the charging
pad, wireless charging may not
operate properly.
• Some magnetic it ems like credit
cards, phone cards or rail tickets may
be damaged if left with the cellular
phone during the charging process.
•
When any c

ellular phone without
a wireless charging function or a
metallic object is placed on the
charging pad, a small noise may
sound. This small sound is due to the
vehicle discerning compatibility of
the object placed on the charging
pad. It does not affect your vehicle or
the cellular phone in any way.
Information
If the ignition switch is in the LOCK/ OFF
position, the charging also stops.
Information

FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1.

Antenna
OCN7050072
Shark fin antenna (1, if equipped)
The shark fin antenna receives data
transmitted from base stations and
satelliltes (for example: GPS, Sirus XM,
LTE) and also transmits to base stations
(for example: LTE).
Glass antenna (2)
Your vehicle uses a glass antenna to
receive both AM and FM signals.
WARNING
• Do not clean the inside of the rear
window glass with a cleaner or
scraper to remove foreign deposits
as this may cause damage to the
antenna elements.
• To prevent damage to the rear
glass antenna, never use sharp
instruments or window cleaner
containing abrasives to clean the
window. Clean the inside surface of
the rear glass window with a piece of
soft cloth.
• Avoid adding metallic coatings such
as Ni, Cd, etc. These can degrade
the receiving AM and FM broadcast
signals.
• When putting a sticker on the inside
surface of the rear window, be
careful not to damage the rear glass
antenna.
• Do not put sharp instruments nearby
the rear glass antenna.
• Tinted rear window may affect the
proper functioning of the antenna.

How vehicle radio works
FM reception
OJF045308L
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the
radio antenna on your vehicle. 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
vehicle 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 stations
or the presence of buildings, bridges or
other large obstructions in the area.
AM (MW, LW) reception
OJF045309L
AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broadcasts.
This is because AM radio waves are
transmitted at low frequencies. 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 obstructions so that they can
provide better signal coverage.

Convenient Features
5-122
FM radio station
OJF045310L
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow
the earth’s surface. Because of this, FM
broadcasts generally begin to fade at
short distances from the station. Also, FM
signals are easily affected by buildings,
mountains, or other obstructions.These can result in certain listening
conditions which might lead you to
believe a problem exists with your radio.
The following conditions are normal and
do not indicate radio trouble :
JBM004
•
Fading As your vehicle moves away
from the radio station, the signal will
weaken and sound will begin to fade.
When this occurs, we suggest that you
select another stronger station.
• Flutter/Static Weak FM signals or
large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can disturb
the signal causing static or fluttering
noises to occur. Reducing the treble
level may lessen this effect until the
disturbance clears.

05
5-123
OJF045311L
• Station Swapping As a FM signal
weakens, another more powerful
signal near the same frequency may
begin to play. This is because your
radio is designed to lock onto the
clearest signal. If this occurs, select
another station with a stronger signal.
• Multi-Path Cancellation Radio
signals being received from several
directions can cause distortion or
fluttering. This can be caused by a
direct and reflected signal from the
same station, or by signals from two
stations with close frequencies. If this
occurs, select another station until the
condition has passed.
Using a cellular phone or a twoway
radio
When a cellular 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 cellular phone at a place as far as
possible from the audio equipment.
NOTICE
When using a communication system
such as a cellular phone or a radio set
inside the vehicle, a separate external
antenna must be fitted. When a cellular
phone or a radio set is used with an
internal antenna alone, it may interfere
with the vehicle’s electrical system and
adversely affect safe operation of the
vehicle.
WARNING
Do not use a cellular phone while
driving. Stop at a safe location to use a
cellular phone.
