Radio reception factors:
•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.
AM/FM select in navigation mode
Press once when in navigation mode to return to the audio screen (while
the navigation function continues to work in the background). Press
again to enter AM/FM mode where you are able to make frequency band
adjustments.

Your vehicle is equipped with rear seat controls, which allow the rear
seat passengers to operate and listen to a different playing media than
the front seat passengers. To engage the rear seat controls from the VNR
system:
•Press the headphone/speaker icon
on the VNR system. The
headphone icon illuminates in the
display indicating the system has
enabled Rear Seat Control mode. A subsequent press of this button

listen to the same playing media. However, rear seat passengers listen to
the media over their headphones (thereby being able to adjust the
volume) and the front seat passengers listen via the front seat speakers.
Press the headphone/speaker control again to disengage the rear seat
controls (and Dual Play mode). The system returns to Single Play mode.
Front and rear speakers will play the selected media.
