Features of your vehicle
How vehicle audio worksAM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the
radio antenna on your vehicle. This signal
is then received by the radio and sent to
your vehicle speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineering of
your audio system ensures the best pos-
sible quality reproduction. However, in
some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear. This
can be due to factors, such as the dis-
tance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong radio stations or the pres-
ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area.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 frequency radio waves can fol-
low the curvature of the earth rather than
travelling straight out into the atmos-
phere. In addition, they curve around
obstructions so that they can provide bet-
ter signal coverage.
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow the
earth's surface. Because of this, FM
broadcasts generally begin to fade at
short distances from the station. Also,
FM signals are easily affected by build-
ings, mountains, or other obstructions.
These can result in certain listening con-
ditions which might lead you to believe a
problem exists with your radio. The fol-
lowing conditions are normal and do not
indicate radio trouble:

4 Fading - As your vehicle moves away
from the radio station, the signal will
weaken and sound will begin to fade.
When this occurs, we suggest that you
select another stronger station.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the trans-
mitter and your radio can disturb the
signal causing static or fluttering nois-
es to occur. Reducing the treble level
may lessen this effect until the distur-
bance clears. Station Swapping - As a FM signal
weakens, another more powerful sig-
nal near the same frequency may
begin to play. This is because your
radio is designed to lock onto the clear-
est signal. If this occurs, select another
station with a stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions
can cause distortion or fluttering. This
can be caused by a direct and reflect-
ed signal from the same station, or by
signals from two stations with close
frequencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition has
passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-wayradio When a cellular phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio system. This does not mean that
something is wrong with the audio equip-
ment. In such a case, use the cellular
phone at a place as far as possible from
the audio equipment.

CAUTION
When using a communication sys-tem such as a cellular phone or aradio set inside the vehicle, a sepa-rate external antenna must be fitted. When a cellular phone or a radio setis used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehi-cle's electrical system and adverse- ly affect safe operation of the vehi-cle.
WARNING
Do not use a cellular phone while
driving. Stop at a safe location to
use a cellular phone.¢¢ ¢

Technology Manufactured
Under License From iBiquity Digital
Corporation. U.S. and Foreign Patents.

TM
and the HD and HD Radio

iBiquity Digital Corporation.
Availability informationHD Radio
TM reception is available in the
United States, including Alaska and
Hawaii.
What is HD Radio
TM
technology?
The vehicle audio system (if equipped) is
able to receive standard analog FM/AM
radio broadcasting as well as digital HD
Radio
TMFM/AM broadcasting.
HD RadioTM
technology provides digital
and analog reception using existing FM
and AM broadcasting frequencies. Currently, radio stations broadcasting an
HD Radio
TM
signal are operating in a
hybrid mode of both, analog and digital,
in order to reach both receivers. In both
modes, analog and digital, the broad-
casted program contents is the
same(except of multicasting, see below).
Eventually, as analog receivers are
replaced by digital ones, radio stations
may be able to turn off their analog
broadcasting and use only digital broad-
casting.
MulticastingHD Radio
TMFM stations are able to broad-
cast multiple digital program
streams(channels) over a single FM fre-
quency. For example, a HD Radio
TM
FM
station can run a main channel of music
and a sub channel of news(or even two dif-
ferent music channels) at one frequency.
But only the program content of the main
channel is broadcasted in analog.
HD Radio
TM
signal delay
To overcome the delay that digital sys-
tems inherently produce, HD Radio
TM
technology first uses the audio signal of
the analog broadcasting when you tune
to an AM station or to the main channel
of a FM station. After that, the system will
blend from analog to digital signal.
Normally, this blending is very smooth. If
you experience a skip in program content
of several seconds, the radio station has
not implemented HD Radio
TMbroadcast-
ing correctly. This is not a problem with
your audio system.
Due to the fact that sub channels are only
broadcasting digital, blending from analog
to digital signal is not possible if you tune
to a sub channel. In this case playback of
the sub channel starts after several sec-
onds, this is a normal function.
