FM RADIO RECEPTION Range: FM range is normally limited to 25
to 30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural
(single channel) FM having slightly more
range than stereo FM. External influences
may sometimes interfere with FM station
reception even if the FM station is within
25 miles (40 km). The strength of the FM
signal is directly related to the distance
between the transmitter and receiver. FM
signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhib-
iting many of the same characteristics as
light. For example they will reflect off ob-
jects. Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves
away from a station transmitter, the sig-
nals will tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interfer-
ence from buildings, large hills or due to
antenna position, usually in conjunction
with increased distance from the station
transmitter, static or flutter can be heard.
This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control counterclockwise to reduce
treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the re-
flective characteristics of FM signals, di-
rect and reflected signals reach the re-
ceiver at the same time. The signals may
cancel each other, resulting in momentary
flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION AM signals, because of their low fre-
quency, can bend around objects and
skip along the ground. In addition, the
signals can be bounced off the iono-
sphere and bent back to earth. Because
of these characteristics. AM signals are
also subject to interference as they travel
from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is
passing through freeway underpasses or in areas with many tall buildings. It can
also occur for several seconds during
ionospheric turbulence even in areas
where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, elec-
trical power lines, electric signs and even
traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION (if so
equipped) When the satellite radio is first installed
or the battery has been replaced, the sat-
ellite radio may not work properly. This is
not a malfunction. Wait more than 10 min-
utes with satellite radio ON for satellite
radio to receive all of the necessary data.
No satellite radio reception is available
unless optional satellite receiver and an-
tenna are installed and an XM or
SIRIUS TM
satellite radio service subscrip-
tion is active.
Satellite radio is not available in Alaska
and Hawaii.
Satellite radio performance may be af-
fected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the sat-
ellite antenna.SAA0306

WARNINGAntifreeze is poisonous and should be
stored carefully in marked containers out of
the reach of children.
CAUTIONDo not substitute engine anti-freeze coolant
for window washer solution. This may result
in damage to the paint.
O Do not fill the window washer reservoir
tank with washer fluid concentrates at
full strength. Some methyl alcohol
based washer fluid concentrates may
permanently stain the grille if spilled
while filling the window washer reser-
voir tank.
O Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer's recom-
mended levels before pouring the fluid
into the window washer reservoir tank. Do not use the window washer reservoir
tank to mix the washer fluid concen-
trateand water. O Keep the battery surface clean and
dry. Any corrosion should be washed
off with a solution of baking soda and
water.
O Make certain the terminal connections
are clean and securely tightened.
O If the vehicle is not to be used for 30
days or longer, disconnect the (þ)
negative battery terminal cable to pre-
vent discharging it.
Coupe
CAUTION When the battery cable is removed from the
battery terminal, do not close either of front
doors. The automatic window adjusting func-
tion will not work, and the side roof panel
may be damaged.
To disconnect the negative (þ) battery ter-
minal, perform the procedure in the follow-
ing order. Otherwise, the window and the
side roof panel may contact and be dam-
aged.
1. Close the windows.BATTERY

WARNING O Do not expose the battery to flames or
electrical sparks. Hydrogen gas, gener-
ated by battery fluid, is explosive. Do not
allow battery fluid to contact your skin,
eyes, fabrics, or painted surfaces. After
touching a battery or battery cap, do not
touch or rub your eyes. Thoroughly wash
your hands. If the acid contacts your
eyes, skin or clothing, immediately flush
with water for at least 15 minutes and
seek medical attention.
O Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in
the battery is low. Low battery fluid can
cause a higher load on the battery which
can generate heat, reduce battery life,
and in some cases lead to an explosion.
O When working on or near a battery, al-
ways wear suitable eye protection and
remove all jewelry.
O Battery posts, terminals and related ac-
cessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds. Wash hands after handling. O Keep the battery out of the reach of chil-
dren.
