RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS
Three factors can affect radio reception:
•Distance/strength.The further an FM signal
travels, the weaker it is. The listenable range of
the average FM station is approximately 40 km
(24 miles). This range can be affected by“signal
modulation.”Signal modulation is a process radio
stations use to increase their strength/volume
relative to other stations.
•Terrain.Hills, mountains and tall buildings
between your vehicle’s antenna and the radio
station signal can cause FM reception problems.
Static can be caused on AM stations by power
lines, electric fences, traffic lights and
thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering
structure (out of its“shadow”) returns your
reception to normal.
•Station overload.Weak signals are sometimes
captured by stronger signals when you pass a
broadcast tower. A stronger signal may
temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play
while the weak station frequency is displayed.
The audio system automatically switches to single
channel reception if it will improve the reception of
a station normally received in stereo.
AUDIO SYSTEM WARRANTIES AND SERVICE
Refer to theWarranty Guidefor audio system
warranty information.
If service is necessary, see your dealer or a qualified

BULBS
Replacing exterior bulbs
Check the operation of the following lamps
frequently:
•Headlamps
•Tail lamps
•Brakelamps
•High-mount brakelamp•Turn signal lamps
•Backup lamps
•License plate lamp
Do not remove lamp bulbs unless they will be
replaced immediately. If a bulb is removed for an
extended period of time, contaminants may enter
the lamp housings and affect performance.
Using the right bulbs
Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below.
Headlamp bulbs must be marked with an authorized
“D.O.T.”for North America and an“E”for Europe to
assure lamp performance, light brightness and pattern
and safe visibility. The correct bulbs will not damage
the lamp assembly or void the lamp assembly
warranty and will provide quality bulb burn time.

6. Without turning,
remove the old bulb
from the lamp assembly
by gently pulling it
straight out of the lamp
assembly.
To install the new bulb:
Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully
and keep out of children’s reach. Grasp the
bulb only by its plastic base and do not touch the
glass. The oil from your hand could cause the bulb
to break the next time the headlamps are
operated.
1. With the flat side of the new bulb’s plastic base
facing upward, insert the glass end of the bulb into
the lamp assembly. You may need to turn the bulb
left or right to align the grooves in the plastic base
with the tabs in the lamp assembly. When the
grooves are aligned, push the bulb into the lamp
assembly until the plastic base contacts the rear of
the lamp assembly.
2. Install the bulb retaining ring over the plastic base
until it contacts the rear of the socket by rotating
clockwise until you feel a“stop.”
3. Connect the electrical connector into the plastic
base until it snaps, locking it into position.
4. Install the headlamp on vehicle by aligning the
lamp with the rear snap retainers, push to seat and
secure with two retainer pins.
5. Turn the headlamps on and make sure they work
properly. If the headlamp was correctly aligned
before you changed the bulb, you should not need to
align it again.
Replacing front parking lamp/turn signal bulbs
1. Make sure the headlamp control is in the OFF
position.
2. Open the hood.
