Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage may cause interference with thevehicle's radio. This interference may occur whenmaking or receiving phone calls, charging the phone'sbattery, or simply having the phone on. Thisinterference causes an increased level of static whilelistening to the radio. If static is received while listeningto the radio, unplug the cellular phone and turn it off.
