■When the 12-volt battery is disconnected
All preset stations are erased.
■Reception sensitivity
●Cargo loaded on the roof luggage carrier, especially metal objects, may adversely
affect the reception of XM® Satellite Radio.
●It is difficult to maintain perfect radio reception at all times due to the continually
changing position of the antenna, differences in signal strength and surrounding
objects, such as trains and transmitters.
●The radio antenna is mounted inside the trunk and the rear window. To maintain
clear radio reception, do not attach metallic window tinting or other metallic
objects to the antenna wire mounted inside the rear window.

■About iPod
●“Made for iPod” and “Made for iPhone” mean that an electronic accessory has
been designed to connect specifically to iPod, or iPhone, respectively, and has
been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards.
●Apple is not responsible for the operation of this device or its compliance with
safety and regulatory standards. Please note that the use of this accessory with
iPod or iPhone may affect wireless performance.
●iPhone, iPod, iPod classic, iPod nano and iPod touch are trademarks of Apple Inc.,
registered in the U.S. and other countries.
■iPod cover art
●Depending on the iPod and songs in the iPod, iPod cover art may be displayed.
●This function can be changed to “On” or “Off”. (→P. 3 4 9 )
●It may take time to display iPod cover art, and the iPod may not be operated while
the cover art display is in process.
●Only iPod cover art that is saved in a JPEG format can be displayed.
■iPod functions
●When the iPod connected to the system includes iPod video, the system can only
output the sound by selecting on the “iPod” screen.
●Depending on the iPod, the video sound may not be able to be heard.
●When an iPod is connected and the audio source is changed to iPod mode, the
iPod will resume play from the same point in which it was last used.
●Depending on the iPod that is connected to the system, certain functions may not
be available. If a function is unavailable due to a malfunction (as opposed to a sys-
tem specification), disconnecting the device and reconnecting it once again may
resolve the problem.
●While connected to the system, the iPod cannot be operated with its own controls.
It is necessary to use the controls of the vehicle’s audio system instead.
●When the battery level of an iPod is very low, the iPod may not operate. If so, charge
the iPod before use.

CAUTION
■FCC WARNING
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure
Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency
(RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it
deemed to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But
it is desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least
20 cm or more away from person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet
and ankles).
Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements
énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles les
radioélectriques (RF) de la FCC lignes directrices d’exposition dans le
Supplément C à OET65 et d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF)
CNR-102 de l’IC. Cet équipement émet une énergie RF très faible qui est
considérée conforme sans évaluation de l’exposition maximale autorisée.
Cependant, cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé en gardant une distance de
20 cm ou plus entre le dispositif rayonnant et le corps (à l’exception des
extrémités : mains, poignets, pieds et chevilles).
XFor vehicles sold in the U.S.A.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
XFor vehicles sold in Canada
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using
an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by
Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the
antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radi-
ated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio
peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur)
approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques
de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le
type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une
communication satisfaisante.
