resulting in an accident.

僅 Always drive slowly and turn corners

carefully when carrying items on the

roof rack. Severe wind updrafts,

caused by passing vehicles or natural

causes, can cause sudden upward

pressure on items loaded on the roof

rack. This is especially true when car

rying large, flat items such as wood

panels or mattresses. This could

cause the items to fall off the roof

rack and cause damage to your vehi

ODEEV068216NR

AM and FM radio signals are broadcast

from transmitter towers located around

your city. They are intercepted by the

radio antenna on your vehicle. This sig

nal is then processed by the radio and

sent to your vehicle speakers.

-

However, in some cases the signal com

ing to your vehicle may not be strong

and clear.

-

This can be due to factors, such as the

distance from the radio station, close

presence of buildings, bridges or other

AM reception

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:

僅 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.

ODEEV068217NR

AM broadcasts can be received at

greater distances than FM broadcasts.

This is because AM radio waves are

transmitted at low frequencies. These

long distance, low frequency radio

waves can follow the curvature of the

earth rather than traveling straight. In

addition, they curve around obstructions

resulting in better signal coverage.

OSK3048403NR

FM radio station

僅 Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or

large obstructions between the trans

-

mitter and your radio can disturb the

signal causing static or fluttering

noises to occur. Reducing the treble

level may lessen this effect until the

disturbance clears.

僅 Station Swapping - As an FM signal

weakens, another more powerful sig

nal 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.

-

ODEEV068219NR

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.

is in the safe and legal operation of a

vehicle. Any use of handheld devices,

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 system. This does not mean that

something is wrong with the audio

equipment. In such a case, try to operate

mobile devices as far from the audio

equipment as possible.

When using a communication system

such as 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 only the

internal antenna, it may interfere with

the vehicle's electrical system and

adversely affect the safe operation of

the vehicle.
