3-38 Backglass Antenna
Your AM-FM antenna is integrated with your rear
window defogger, located in the rear window. Be sure
that the inside surface of the rear window is not
scratched and that the lines on the glass are not
damaged. If the inside surface is damaged, it could
interfere with radio reception.
NOTICE:
Do not try to clear frost or other material from
the inside of the rear window with a razor blade
or anything else that is sharp. This may damage
the rear defogger grid and affect your radio's
ability to pick up stations clearly. The repairs
wouldn't be covered by your warranty.
Because this antenna is built into your rear window,
there is a reduced risk of damage caused by car washes
and vandals.If you choose to add a cellular telephone to your vehicle,
and the antenna needs to be attached to the glass, be sure
that you do not damage the grid lines for the AM
-FM
antenna. There is enough space between the lines to
attach a cellular telephone antenna without interfering
with radio reception.
Vehicle Customization Settings
Your audio system can be used to control vehicle
customization settings using the DISP button when the
radio is off. See ªVehicle Customization Settingsº in
the Index.
Chime Level Adjustment
The radio is the vehicle chime producer. To change the
volume level, press and hold pushbutton six with the
ignition on and the radio power off. The chime volume
level will change from the normal level to loud, and
LOUD will be displayed on the radio. To change back
to the default or normal setting, press and hold the
pushbutton six again. The chime level will change
from the loud level to normal, and NORMAL will be
displayed. Each time the chime volume is changed,
three chimes will sound as an example of the new volume
selected. Removing the radio and not replacing it with a
factory radio or chime module will disable vehicle chimes.
