This does not mean that somethingis wrong with the audio equipment. In such acase, use the cellular phone at a place as far aspossible from the audio equipment. CAUTION: When using a communication system suchas a cellular phone or a radio inside thevehicle, a separate external antenna mustbe fitted. When a cellular phone or a radioset is used with an internal antenna alone, itmay interfere with the vehicle's electricalsystem and adversely affect safe operationof the vehicle. WARNING: Don't use a cellular phone when you aredriving, you must stop at a safe place to usea cellular phone.
SSAR014A
o Station Swapping - As an FM signal weak- ens, another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This isbecause your radio is designed to lock ontothe clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals be- ing received from several directions cancause distortion or fluttering. This can becaused by a direct and a reflected signalfrom the same station, or by signals fromtwo stations with close frequencies. If thisoccurs, select another station until the con-dition has passed.SSAR013A
o Fading - As your car moves away from the radio station, the signal will weaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs,we suggest that you select another strongerstation.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter andyour radio can disturb the signal causingstatic or fluttering noises to occur. Reducingthe treble level may lessen this effect untilthe disturbance clears.
