Satellite radio signals are best received in
areas with a clear view of the open sky. In
areas where there are tall buildings, trees,
tunnels or other structures that may ob-
struct the signal of the satellites, there
may be signal interruptions. Other circum-
stances that may result in signal loss in-
clude driving near a wall, steep cliff or hill,
or driving on the lower level of a multi-
tiered road or inside a parking garage.
To help reduce this condition, satellite ra-
dio providers have installed ground-based
repeaters in heavily populated areas.

form inside the CD player, preventing nor-
mal operation. If this happens, eject the
CD and wait for the player to dry out. ySkipping may occur when the CD player
is subjected to severe vibration (for exam-
ple, when the vehicle is driven on a rough
surface). y To remove a disc from the case, press
the center of the case and hold both edg-
es of the disc. If the disc surface is
touched directly, contamination could
cause poor tone quality. Do not touch the
disc surface. y Use a clean disc whenever possible. If
there are deposits, wipe the disc surface
from the center outward with a dry, soft
cloth. Be sure not to use a hard cloth, thin-
ner, benzene, alcohol, etc. y Do not use any disc that is scratched,
deformed, or cracked. Also, do not use
any disc that has a non-standard shape
(for example, a heart shape). Malfunctions
or problems might result. y A disc is vulnerable to heat. Never keep
it either in places exposed to direct sun-
light, near heaters or in vehicles parked in
the sun or on hot days.
