STEREO SOUND SYSTEMB750A02A-AATHow Car Audio Works
AM broadcasts can be received at greater
distances than FM broadcasts. This is
because AM radio waves are transmitted
at low frequencies. These long, low fre-
quency radio waves can follow the curva-
ture of the earth rather than travelling
straight out into the atmosphere. In addi-
tion, they curve around obstructions so
that they can provide better signal cover-
age. AM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the radio
antenna on your car. This signal is then
received by the radio and sent to your car
speakers. When a strong radio signal has
reached your vehicle, the precise engi-
neering of your audio system ensures the
best possible quality reproduction. How-
ever, in some cases the signal coming to
your vehicle may not be strong and clear.
This can be due to factors such as the
distance from the radio station, closeness
of other strong radio stations or the pres-
ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area.FM broadcasts are transmitted at high fre-
quencies and do not bend to follow the
earth's surface. Because of this, FM broad-
casts generally begin to fade at short dis-
tances from the station. Also, FM signals
are easily affected by buildings, moun-
tains, or other obstructions. These can
result in certain listening conditions which
might lead you to believe a problem exists
with your radio. The following conditions
are normal and do not indicate radio trouble:

discs encoded in the CD Audio, MP3, and
WMA formats. This audio system also
comes with an external Satellite Digital
Audio Receiver (SDAR) in providing the
XM service.
If your audio system is the D465S or D466S
model and it is connected to a factory-
installed Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
system*, you can control some playback
functions of the RSE system using the
audio system’s front panel controls (for
example, CD player controls).Your audio system has 5 different types of
controls. These controls are used either
independently or in combination with your
audio system’s radio, CD player, SDAR or
optional RSE system*.
NOTE:Your audio system’s factory-installed
amplifier is pre-configured for optimum
performance. You will not be able to
make any adjustments. If there is a prob-
lem with the audio system’s amplifier,
please consult a professional audio en-
gineer or the dealer where you purchased
your vehicle.1. General Controls:

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
C010A03A-AATEngine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the
windows immediately.
o Do not inhale exhaust fumes.
Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by
asphyxiation.
o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you
hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have
the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer.
o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine
in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out.
o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area
with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
If you must drive with the tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield
are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.
