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.
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.
Infotainment System
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making or
receiving calls, charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause static
interference in the radio. Unplug the mobile
device or turn it off if this happens.

Fixed Mast Antenna

If equipped, the fixed mast antenna will go
through most car washes as long as it is
securely attached. If the antenna becomes
slightly bent, straighten it out by hand. If it
is badly bent, replace it.
Occasionally check that the antenna is tight
at the base. If tightening is required, protect
the paint from damage.

Multi-Band Antenna

If equipped, the roof antenna is for AM, FM,
and GPS (Global Positioning System). Keep
clear of obstructions for clear reception.
If the vehicle has a sunroof, and it is open,
reception can also be affected.
