information begins. 
■ Reception sensitivity 
● Maintaining perfect radio reception at all times is difficult due to the continu- 
ally changing position of the antenna, differences in signal strength and sur- 
rounding objects, such as trains, transmitters, etc. 
● The radio antenna is mounted on the roof. The antenna can be removed 
from the base by turning it.
NOTICE
■ To prevent damage, remove the antenna in the following cases 
● The antenna will touch the ceiling of a garage. 
● A cover will be put on the roof. 
● When driving through an automatic car wash. 
● Any other cases where there is a risk of touching surrounding parts.
