Antenna
Roof type antenna
If your vehicle has an audio system,
an amplifying antenna is installed in
your vehicle.
This antenna can be removed from
the vehicle when you wash your
vehicle.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• Be sure to remove the antenna
before washing the car in an auto-
matic car wash or it may be dam-
aged.
• When reinstalling your antenna, it is important that it is fully tight-
ened to ensure proper reception.
How car audio works
AM(MW, LW) and FM radio signals are
broadcast from transmitter towers
located around your city. They are inter-
cepted 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
engineering of your audio system
ensures the best possible quality
reproduction. However, in some
cases the signal coming to your vehi-
cle may not be strong and clear. This
can be due to factors such as the dis-
tance from the radio station, close-
ness of other strong radio stations or
the presence of buildings, bridges or
other large obstructions in the area. AM(MW, LW) broadcasts can be
received at greater distances than
FM broadcasts. This is because
AM(MW, LW) radio waves are trans-
mitted at low frequencies. These
long, low frequency radio waves can
follow the curvature of the earth
rather than travelling straight out into
the atmosphere. In addition, they
curve around obstructions so that
they can provide better signal cover-
age.

Satellite radio reception
You may experience problems in
receiving SIRIUS satellite radio sig-
nals in the following situations.
If you are driving in a tunnel or acovered parking area.
If you are driving beneath the top level of a multi-level freeway.
If you drive under a bridge.
If you are driving next to a tall vechi- cle(such as a truck or a bus) that
block the signal.
If you are driving in a valley where the surrounding hills or peaks block
the signal from the satellite. If you are driving on a mountain
road where is blocked by moun-
tains.
If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal(10m or
more), for example on an road that
goes through a dense forset.
The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered by
the repeater station network.
please note that these may be other
unforeseen circumstances when
there are problems with the recep-
tion of SIRIUS satellite radio signal.
Using a cellular phone or a two- way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio equipment. This does
not mean that something is wrong
with the audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a
place as far as possible from the
audio equipment.
CAUTION
When using a communicationsystem such a cellular phone ora radio set inside the vehicle, aseparate external antenna mustbe fitted. When a cellular phoneor a radio set is used with aninternal antenna alone, it mayinterfere with the vehicle's elec-trical system and adverselyaffect safe operation of the vehi-cle.
WARNING
Don't use a cellular phone when
you are driving. You must stop
at a safe place to use a cellular
phone.

To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged. Hold and carry
CDs by the edges or the edges of
the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe it
from the center to the outside

dirt.
Depending on the type of CD- R/CD-RW CDs, certain CDs may
not operate normally according to
manufacturing companies or mak-
ing and recording methods. In such
circumstances, if you still continue
to use those CDs, they may cause
the malfunction of your car audio
system.
