Infotainment system
FM broadcasts are transmitted at
high frequencies and do not bend to
follow the earth's surface. Because
of this, FM broadcasts generally
begin to fade within short distances
from the station. Also, FM signals
are easily affected by buildings,
mountains, and obstructions. This
can lead to undesirable or unpleas
ant listening conditions which might
lead you to believe a problem exists
with your radio.
The following conditions are normal
and do not indicate radio trouble:
Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select
another station with a stronger
signal.
OSK3048403NR
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals
or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can
disturb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reduc
ing the treble level may lessen
this effect until the disturbance
clears.
Station Swapping - As an FM sig
nal weakens, another more pow
erful signal near the same
frequency may begin to play. This
is because your radio is designed
to lock onto the clearest signal. If
this occurs, select another station
with a stronger signal.
ODEEV068220NR
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio
signals being received from sev
eral directions can cause distor
tion or fluttering. This can be
caused by a direct and reflected
signal from the same station, or
by signals from two stations with
close frequencies. If this occurs,
select another station until the
condition has passed.
