Radio Reception
Unplug electronic devices from the
accessory power outlets if there is
interference or static in the radio.
FM
FM signals only reach about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 mi). Although the
radio has a built-in electronic circuit
that automatically works to reduce
interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in
and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. Static can also occur
when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception.
When this happens, try reducing the
treble on the radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio
Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite
Radio Service provides digital radio
reception. Tall buildings or hills can
interfere with satellite radio signals,
causing the sound to fade in and
out. In addition, traveling or standing
under heavy foliage, bridges,
garages, or tunnels may cause loss
of the SiriusXM signal for a period
of time.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as
making or receiving calls, charging,
or just having the mobile device on

the headphones. A light on the
headphones comes on. A flashinglight indicates the headphones are
not in range. Move them closer to
the forward overhead screen until
the light stops flashing. If the light
does not come on, check the
batteries. Intermittent sound or static
can also indicate weak batteries.
See
“Battery Replacement” later in
this section.
Turn the headphones off when not
in use.
Move the channel switch to
channel 1 or channel 2. Channel 1
will play audio from screen 1 and
channel 2 will play audio from

Infrared transmitters are on the top
of the second row video screen. The
headphones shut off automatically if the RSI system is off or if the
headphones are out of range of the
transmitters for more than
three minutes. Moving too far
forward or stepping out of the
vehicle can cause the headphones
to lose the signal or have static.
Use the volume control on the
headphones to adjust the volume.
For best audio performance, wear
the headphones as indicated with
L (Left) and R (Right) on the ear
pads. Do not let anything cover the
ear pads.
Caution
Do not store the headphones in
heat or direct sunlight. This could
damage the headphones and
repairs will not be covered by the
warranty. Storage in extreme cold
can weaken the batteries. Keep
the headphones stored in a cool,
dry place.

Global Positioning
System (GPS)
The position of the vehicle is
determined by using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, and
map data.
At times, other interference such as
the satellite condition, road
configuration, condition of the
vehicle, and/or other circumstances
can affect the navigation system's
ability to determine the accurate
position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position
of the vehicle using signals sent by
GPS satellites. When the vehicle is
not receiving signals from the
satellites, a symbol appears in the
status bar.
This system might not be available
or interference can occur if any of
the following are true:
.
Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks,
or a tunnel.
. Satellites are being repaired or
improved.
For more information if the GPS is
not functioning properly, see
Problems with Route Guidance 076
and
If the System Needs Service 077.
