2018 Hyundai Elantra Owner's Manual

Fading - As your vehicle movesaway from the radio station, the sig-
nal 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
transmitter and your radio can dis-
turb the signal causing static or flut-
tering noises to occur. Reducing the
treble level may lessen this effect
until the disturbance clears. Station Swapping - As an FM signal
weakens, another more powerful
signal near the same frequency
may begin to play. This is because
your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs,
select another station with a
stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several
directions can cause distortion or
fluttering. This can be caused by a
direct and reflected 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.
Features of Your Vehicle

If you are driving on a mountainroad where is the signal blocked by
mountains.
If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal (30 ft.
/10m or more), for example on an
road that goes through a dense for-
est.
The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered by
the XM™ repeater network.Information
There may also be additional unforeseen
circumstances leading to reception prob-
lems with the XM™ satellite radio signal.
Advisory Messages, such as ‘CH
Unavailable’ may occur when starting
XM™ Radio.
Caring for CDs
If the temperature inside the car is too
high, open the car windows to ventilate
before using the system.
It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA files without permission. Use CDs that
are created only by lawful means.
Do not apply volatile agents, such as benzene and thinner, normal cleaners
and magnetic sprays made for analog
disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from get- ting damaged, hold CDs by the edges
or the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe it from
the center to the outside edge).
Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or paper.
Make certain only CDs are inserted into the CD player (Do not insert more
than one CD at a time).
Keep CDs in their cases after use to protect them from scratches or dirt.
Depending on the type of CD-R/CD- RW CDs, certain CDs may not operate
normally according to the manufactur-
ing companies. In such circumstances,
continued use may cause malfunctions
to your audio system.

Information - Playing an
Incompatible Copy Protected
Audio CD
Some copy protected CDs, which do not
comply with international audio CD stan-
dards (Red Book), may not play on your
car audio. Please note that inabilities to
properly play a copy protected CD may
indicate that the CD is defective, not the
CD player.
Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
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, try to operate
mobile devices as far from the audio
equipment as possible.
NOTE:
Order of playing files (folders) :
1. Song playing order : to
sequentially.
2. Folder playing order :
❋ If no song file is contained in the fold-
er, that folder is not displayed.i

Multimedia System
When using a communication sys-
tem such as a cellular phone or a
radio set inside the vehicle, a sepa-
rate external antenna must be fit-
ted. When a cellular phone or a
radio set is used with an internal
antenna alone, it may interfere with
the vehicle's electrical system and
adversely affect safe operation of
the vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not use a cellular phone while
driving. Stop at a safe location to
use a cellular phone or set up the
hands-free calling feature.

prolonged periods of time could
lead to traffic accidents.
Do not disassemble, assemble, or
modify the audio system. Such
acts could result in accidents,
fire, or electric shock.
Using the phone while driving may
lead to a lack of attention of traffic
conditions and increase the likeli-
hood of accidents. Use the phone
feature after parking your vehicle,
or set up hands-free calling feature.

ing could lead to accidents due to
a lack of attention to external sur-
roundings. First park the vehicle
before operating the device.

allow the driver to hear sounds
from outside of the vehicle.
Driving with the audio volume at
a level where external sounds
cannot be heard may lead to an
accident.
Pay attention to the volume set-
ting when turning the device on.
A sudden output of extreme vol-
ume upon turning the device on
could lead to hearing impairment.
(Adjust the volume to a suitable
level before turning off the
device.)
CAUTION

Do not place beverages close to theaudio system. Spilling beverages
may lead to system malfunction.
If your audio system is not working properly, have your vehicle audio
system inspected by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
Placing the audio system within an electromagnetic environment may
result in noise interference.
