How vehicle audio works
AM(MW, LW) and FM radio signals are
broadcast from transmitter towers locat-
ed around your city. They are intercept-
ed 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(MW, LW) broadcasts can be
received at greater distances than FM
broadcasts. This is because AM(MW,
LW) 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.

Do not use the lights for extended

Satellite radio reception
You may experience problems in receiv-
ing SIRIUS satellite radio signals in the
following situations.
If you are driving in a tunnel or a cov-ered parking area.
If you are driving beneath the top level of a multi-level freeway.
If you drive under a bridge.
If you are driving next to a tall vehi- cle(such as a truck or a bus) that block
the signal.
If you are driving in a valley where the surrounding hills or peaks block the sig-
nal from the satellite. If you are driving on a mountain road
where the signal is blocked by moun-
tains.
If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal(10m or
more), for example on a road through a
dense forset.
The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered by the
repeater station network.
please note that these may be other
unforeseen circumstances when there
are problems with the reception of SIR-
IUS satellite radio signal.
Using a cellular phone or a two-way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio equipment. This does not mean
that something is wrong with the audio
equipment. In such a case, use the cellu-
lar phone at a place as far as possible
from the audio equipment.
CAUTION
When using a communication sys-tem such a cellular phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separateexternal antenna must be fitted. When a cellular phone or a radio setis used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehi-cle's electrical system and adverse-ly affect safe operation of the vehi- cle.
WARNING
Don't use a cellular phone when
you are driving. You should stop at
a safe place to use a cellular phone.

Satellite radio channels:
SIRIUS Satellite Radio has over 130 chan-
nels, including 69 channels of 100% com-
mercial-free music, plus sports, news, talk
and entertainment available nationwide in
your vehicle. For more information and a
complete list of SIRIUS Satellite Radio
channels, visit sirius.com in the United
States, sirius-canada.ca in Canada, or call
SIRIUS at 1-888-539-7474.
Satellite radio reception 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 optimalreception 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.
SIRIUS Satellite Radio service:
SIRIUS Satellite Radio is a subscription-
based satellite radio service that broad-
casts music, sports, news and entertain-
ment programming to radio receivers,
which are available for installation in
motor vehicles or factory installed, as

less devices, and through an Internet
connection on personal computer.
Vehicles that are equipped with a factory
installed SIRIUS Satellite Radio system
include:
Hardware and an introductory trial sub-scription term, which begins on the
date of sale or lease of the vehicle.

chase and installation. Please see your
