Aux, USB and iPod®*
(if equipped)
If your vehicle has an aux and/or USB
(universal serial bus) port or iPod port,
you can use an aux port to connect audio
devices and an USB port to plug in an
USB and also an iPod port to plug in an
iPod.
When using a portable audio device con-
nected to the power outlet, noise may
occur during playback. If this happens,
use the power source of the portable
audio device.
How vehicle audio works
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 pos-
sible 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 dis-
tance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong radio stations or the pres-
ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area. 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 fol-
low the curvature of the earth rather than
travelling straight out into the atmos-
phere. In addition, they curve around
obstructions so that they can provide bet-
ter signal coverage.

Satellite
Radioreception factors:
To receive the satellite signal, your vehi-
cle has been equipped with a satellite
radio antenna located on the roof of your
vehicle. The vehicle roof provides the
best location for an unobstructed, open
view of the sky, a requirement of a satel-
lite radio system. Like AM/FM, there are
several factors that can affect satellite
radio reception performance:
Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the anten-
na clear of snow and ice build-up and
keep luggage and other material as far
away from the antenna as possible.
Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway overpasses,
parking garages, dense tree foliage
and thunderstorms can interfere with
your reception.
