How vehicle audio works

AM and FM r adio signals are broadcast
from tr ansmitter to wers located around
your city . They are intercepted b y the
radio antenna on your vehicle.This signal
is then received by the radio and sent to
your vehicle speakers.

When a strong r adio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineer ing of
your audio system ensures the best pos­sible quality reproduction. However, in
some cases the signal coming to y our
vehicle may not be strong and clear. This
can be due to f actors such as the dis­tance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong r adio stations or the pres­ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area.

AM broadcasts can be receiv ed at
greater distances than FM broadcasts .
This is because AM r adio w aves are
transmitted at lo w frequencies . These
long, low frequency radio waves can fol­low the curvature of the earth rather than
travelling str aight out into the atmos­phere. In addition, the y cur ve around
obstructions so that they can provide bet­ter signal coverage.

FM broadcasts are tr ansmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow the
earth's surf ace. Because of this , FM
broadcasts gener ally begin to f ade at
short distances from the station. Also,
FM signals are easily aff ected by build­ings, mountains , or other obstr uctions.
These can result in cer tain listening con­ditions which might lead you to believe a
problem e xists with y our r adio. The f ol­lowing conditions are nor mal and do not
indicate radio trouble:

• Fading - As y our vehicle moves a way
from the r adio station, the signal will
weaken and sound will begin to f ade.
When this occurs, we suggest that you
select another stronger station.

• Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or
large obstructions between the tr ans­mitter and y our r adio can disturb the
signal causing static or flutter ing nois­es to occur . Reducing the treb le level
may lessen this eff ect until the distur­bance clears.

• Station Sw apping - As a FM signal
weakens, another more po werful sig­nal near the same frequency ma y
begin to pla y. This is because y our
radio is designed to lock onto the clear­est signal. If this occurs, select another
station with a stronger signal.

• Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals
being received from se veral directions
can cause distor tion or flutter ing. This
can be caused b y a direct and reflect­ed signal from the same station, or b y
signals from tw o stations with close
frequencies. If this occurs , select
another station until the condition has
passed.

Satellite radio reception

You may experience difficulties in receiv­ing SIRIUS satellite r adio signals in the
following situations.

• If you are driving in a tunnel or a co v­ered parking area.

• If you are driving beneath the top level
of a multi-level freeway.

• If you drive under a bridge.

• If you are dr iving next to a tall v ehicle
(such as a tr uck or a b us) that b locks
the signal.

• If you are driving in a valley where the
surrounding hills or peaks b lock the
signal from the satellite.

• If you are dr iving on a mountain road
where is the signal b locked by moun­tains.

• If you are dr iving in an area with tall
trees that block the signal (30 ft. / 10m
or more), f or example on an road that
goes through a dense forest.

• The signal can become w eak in some
areas that are not co vered b y the
SIRIUS repeater network.

NOTE:

There may be other unforeseen cir­cumstances leading to reception
problems with the SIRIUS satellite
radio signal.

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 equipment. This does not mean
that something is wrong with the audio
equipment. In such a case, use the cellu­lar phone at a place as f ar as possib le
from the audio equipment.

Care of disc

• If the temper ature inside the car is too
high, open the car windows for ventilation
before using your car audio.

• It is illegal to cop y and use MP3/WMA
files without per mission. Use CDs that
are created only by lawful means.

• Do not apply v olatile agents such as
benzene and thinner , normal cleaners
and magnetic spr ays made f or ana­logue disc onto CDs.

• To prevent the disc surf ace from get­ting damaged. Hold and carr y CDs b y
the edges or the edges of the center
hole only.

• Clean the disc surf ace with a piece of
soft cloth before playback (wipe it from
the center to the outside edge).

• Do not damage the disc surf ace or
attach pieces of stic ky tape or paper
onto it.

• Make sure on undesirable matter other
than CDs are inser ted into the CD
player (Do not inser t 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/CD­RW CDs, certain CDs may not operate
normally according to man ufacturing
companies or making and recording
methods. In such circumstances, if you
still contin ue to use those CDs , the y
may cause the malfunction of y our car
audio system.

✽✽

NOTICE - Playing an

Incompatible Copy
Protected Audio CD

Some copy protected CDs, which do not
comply with the international audio CD
standards (Red Book), may not play on
your car audio. Please note that if you
try to play copy protected CDs and the
CD player does not perform correctly
the CDs maybe defective, not the CD
player.

CAUTION

When using a communication sys­tem such a cellular phone or a radio
set inside the vehicle, a separate
external antenna must be fitted.
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.

WARNING

Do not use a cellular phone while
driving. Stop at a safe location to
use a cellular phone.
