The seatback may also be reclined to
allow occupants to rest when the vehicle
is parked.
WARNINGO Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. You could also
slide under the lap belt and receive se-
rious internal injuries.
O For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the
seat and adjust the seat belt properly.
See ªPrecautions on seat belt usageº
later in this section.
O After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
Folding Sedan:

FM RADIO RECEPTION Range: FM range is normally limited to 25
to 30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural
(single channel) FM having slightly more
range than stereo FM. External influences
may sometimes interfere with FM station
reception even if the FM station is within
25 miles (40 km). The strength of the FM
signal is directly related to the distance
between the transmitter and receiver. FM
signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhib-
iting many of the same characteristics as
light. For example they will reflect off ob-
jects. Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves
away from a station transmitter, the sig-
nals will tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interfer-
ence from buildings, large hills or due to
antenna position, usually in conjunction
with increased distance from the station
transmitter, static or flutter can be heard.
This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control counterclockwise to reduce
treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the re-
flective characteristics of FM signals, di-
rect and reflected signals reach the re-
ceiver at the same time. The signals may
cancel each other, resulting in momentary
flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION AM signals, because of their low fre-
quency, can bend around objects and
skip along the ground. In addition, the
signals can be bounced off the iono-
sphere and bent back to earth. Because
of these characteristics. AM signals are
also subject to interference as they travel
from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is
passing through freeway underpasses or in areas with many tall buildings. It can
also occur for several seconds during
ionospheric turbulence even in areas
where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, elec-
trical power lines, electric signs and even
traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION (if so
equipped) When the satellite radio is first installed
or the battery has been replaced, the sat-
ellite radio may not work properly. This is
not a malfunction. Wait more than 10 min-
utes with satellite radio ON for satellite
radio to receive all of the necessary data.
No satellite radio reception is available
unless optional satellite receiver and an-
tenna are installed and an XM or
SIRIUS TM
satellite radio service subscrip-
tion is active.
Satellite radio is not available in Alaska
and Hawaii.
Satellite radio performance may be af-
fected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the sat-
ellite antenna.SAA0306
