Features of your vehicle
Loading cargo or luggage in excess
of the specified weight limit on the
roof rack may damage your vehicle.
Severe wind updrafts, caused by
passing vehicles or natural causes,
can cause sudden upward pressure
on items loaded on the roof rack.
This is especially true when carrying
large, flat items such as wood panels
or mattresses.This could cause the items to fall off
the roof rack and cause damage to
your vehicle or others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo
while driving, check frequently
before or while driving to make sure
the items on the roof rack are
securely fastened.
WARNING- Driving withroof load
Always drive slow and turn cor-
ners carefully when carrying
items on the roof rack. The vehi-
cle center of gravity will be
higher when items are loaded
onto the roof rack.

How vehicle audio works
AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. 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 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 distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions in
the area.
