Satellite radio (if activated)
Your vehicle is equipped with satellite radio capability. The factory installed
SIRIUS satellite radio system includes a limited subscription term which
begins on the date of sale / lease of the vehicle. Extended subscription
terms are available, please contact SIRIUS at 1–888–539–7474.
You will need to give SIRIUS your Satellite Radio ESN Number for
activation. The ESN number is found on the System Information Screen
(SR ESN:XXXXXXXXXXXX). Press the I button (
) on the navigation
system and select the ‘System Info’ tab on the touchscreen.
Satellite radio channels:SIRIUS broadcasts a variety of music, news,
sports, weather, traffic and entertainment satellite radio channels. For
more information and a complete list of SIRIUS satellite radio channels,
visit www.sirius.com in the United States, www.sirius-canada.ca in
Canada, or call SIRIUS at 1–888–539–7474.
Satellite radio reception factors:To receive the satellite signal, your
vehicle has been equipped with a satellite radio antenna located on the
roof of your vehicle. The vehicle roof provides the best location for an
unobstructed, open view of the sky, a requirement of a satellite radio
system. Like AM/FM, there are several factors that can affect satellite
radio reception performance:
•Antenna Obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the
antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the antenna as possible.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can
interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a ground based broadcast repeating
tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and result in an
audio mute.
Unlike AM/FM audible static, you will hear an audio mute when there is
a satellite radio signal interference. Your radio display may display
ACQUIRING...toindicatetheinterference.
SIRIUS satellite radio service:SIRIUS Satellite Radio is a subscription
based satellite radio service that broadcasts music, sports, news and
entertainment programming. A service fee is required in order to receive
SIRIUS service. Vehicles that are equipped with a factory installed
SIRIUS Satellite Radio system include:

PLAYING A CD/DVD
Note: CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in
(12 cm) audio compact discs in the ISO 9660 format only. (UDF

certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not
function correctly when used in CD players. Irregular shaped
CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with
homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into
the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to become
jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified
