radio ID. You will need the radio ID when
activating XM

a problem.
If you select the CH 000" using the
TUNE" knob, the ID code of 8 alphanu-
meric characters appears. If you select
another channel, display of the ID code is
canceled. The channel (000) alternates the

cific radio ID code.

your own system.

AM radio mode.

Tone
How good an audio program sounds to
you is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, midrange and bass levels. In
fact, different kinds of music and vocal
programs usually sound better with differ-
ent mixes of treble, midrange and bass. Balance
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound
levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to
a stereo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the vol-
ume of one group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another.
YOUR RADIO ANTENNA
Your vehicle has an antenna printed on
the inside of the rear quarter window.
NOTICE
Putting a film (especially a conductive
or metallic film) on the rear quarter
window will noticeably reduce the
sensitivity of the radio.
