2. Getting started
.If the temperature inside the vehicle is
especially high, the display may become
dim. This occurs to protect the display
and is not a malfunction. The brightness
will turn to normal when the temperature
inside the vehicle lowers.
. Some pixels in the display are darker or
brighter than others. This condition is an
inherent characteristic of liquid crystal
displays, and it is not a malfunction.
. A remnant of the previous display image
may remain on the screen. This screen
burn is inherent in liquid crystal displays,
and it is not a malfunction.
. The screen may become distorted by
strong magnetic fields.
. Depending on the condition, brightness
may be adjusted automatically to pre-
vent the display from screen burning.
Maintenance of display:
To clean the display screen, use a dry, soft
cloth. If additional cleaning is necessary, use
a small amount of neutral detergent with a
soft cloth. Never spray the screen with
water or detergent. Dampen the cloth first,
then wipe the screen.
CAUTION
. Clean the display with the ignition
switch in the OFF position. If the
display is cleaned while the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position,
unintentional operation may occur.
. To clean the display, never use a
rough cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner
or any kind of solvent or paper towel
with a chemical cleaning agent. They
will scratch or deteriorate the panel.
. Do not splash any liquid, such as
water or car fragrance, on the display.
Contact with liquid will cause the
system to malfunction.

from a station transmitter, the signals will
tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference
from buildings, large hills or due to antenna
position, usually in conjunction with in-
creased distance from the station transmit-
ter, static or flutter can be heard. This can be
reduced by lowering the treble setting to
reduce the treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflec-
tive characteristics of FM signals, direct and
reflected signals reach the receiver at the
same time. The signals may cancel each
other, resulting in momentary flutter or loss
of sound.
AM radio reception
AM signals, because of their low frequency,
can bend around objects and skip along the
ground. In addition, the signals can bounce
off the ionosphere and be bent back to
earth. Because of these characteristics, AM
signals are also subject to interference as
they travel from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas
with many tall buildings. It can also occur for
several seconds during ionospheric turbu-
lence even in areas where no obstacles exist.Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic
lights.
HD RadioTMTechnology reception
HD Radio Technology reception needs to be
activated to receive HD Radio broadcasts.
“Radio Menu” (page 3-12)
This enables you to receive radio broadcasts
digitally (where available), providing a better
quality sound with clear reception. When
this feature is not activated or HD Radio
broadcasts are not available, you will receive
analog radio (AM/FM) broadcasts.
Satellite radio reception
When the satellite radio is used for the first
time or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This is
not a malfunction. Wait more than 10
minutes with the satellite radio ON and the
vehicle outside of any metal or large building
for the satellite radio to receive all of the
necessary data.

The satellite radio performance may be
affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the
satellite antenna.
A buildup of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception.
