signals relative to the vehicle's
position and radio station source.No maintenance or adjustments are
needed. Do not place loads on the
spoiler. If the spoiler is replaced, be
sure it is replaced with the correct
GM parts for the best AM and FM
reception.

GPS (Global Positioning System).
Keep clear of obstructions for clear
reception. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open, reception
can also be affected.
