NOTICE  
CAUTION  
If you install an aftermarket HID head  
lamp, your vehicle’s audio and electron-  
ic device may malfunction.  
• Before entering a place with a low  
height clearance or a car wash,  
remove surely the antenna by  
rotating it counter-clockwise. If  
not, the antenna may be dam-  
aged.  
• When reinstalling your antenna, it  
is important that it is fully tight-  
ened and adjusted to the upright  
position to ensure proper recep-  
tion. But it could be removed  
when parking the vehicle or when  
loading cargo on the roof rack.

Roof antenna  
• When cargo is loaded on the roof  
rack, do not place the cargo near  
the antenna pole to ensure proper  
reception.  
Your car uses a roof antenna to receive  
both AM and FM broadcast signals. This  
antenna is a removable type. To remove  
the antenna, turn it counterclockwise. To  
install the antenna, turn it clockwise.

Features of your vehicle  
FM reception  
AM(MW, LW) reception  
FM radio station  
JBM001  
JBM002  
JBM003  
AM (MW, LW) broadcasts can be  
received at greater distances than FM  
broadcasts. This is because AM(MW,  
LW) radio waves are transmitted at low  
frequencies. These long, low frequency  
radio waves can follow the curvature of  
the earth rather than travelling straight  
out into the atmosphere. In addition, they  
curve around obstructions so that they  
can provide better signal coverage.  
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 at  
short distances from the station. Also,  
FM signals are easily affected by build-  
ings, mountains, or other obstructions.  
These can result in certain listening con-  
ditions which might lead you to believe a  
problem exists with your radio. The fol-  
lowing conditions are normal and do not  
indicate radio trouble:  
How car audio works  
AM (MW, LW) and FM radio signals are  
broadcast from transmitter towers locat-  
ed around your city. They are intercepted  
by the radio antenna on your car. This  
signal is then received by the radio and  
sent to your car speakers.  
When a strong radio signal has reached  
your vehicle, the precise engineering of  
your audio system ensures the best pos-  
sible quality reproduction. However, in  
some cases the signal coming to your  
vehicle may not be strong and clear. This  
can be due to factors such as the dis-  
tance from the radio station, closeness of  
other strong radio stations or the pres-  
ence of buildings, bridges or other large  
obstructions in the area.  
4 112  
Features of your vehicle  
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 cellu-  
lar phone at a place as far as possible  
from the audio equipment.  
CAUTION  
When using a communication sys-  
tem 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 vehi-  
cle's electrical system and adverse-  
ly affect safe operation of the vehi-  
cle.  
JBM004  
JBM005  
• Fading - As your car 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 stronger station.  
• Station Swapping - As a 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 clear-  
est signal. If this occurs, select anoth-  
er station with a stronger signal.  
• Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or  
large obstructions between the trans-  
mitter and your radio can disturb the  
signal causing static or fluttering nois-  
es to occur. Reducing the treble level  
may lessen this effect until the distur-  
bance clears.  
• Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals  
being received from several directions  
can cause distortion or fluttering. This  
can be caused by a direct and reflect-  
ed 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.  
WARNING  
Don't use a cellular phone when  
you are driving. You should stop at  
a safe place to use a cellular phone.

Features of your vehicle  
• Keep CDs in their cases after use to  
protect them from scratches or dirt.  
Care of discs  
• If the temperature inside the car is too  
high, open the car windows for ventila-  
tion before using your car audio.  
• Depending on the type of CD-R/CD-  
RW CDs, certain CDs may not operate  
normally depending upon manufactur-  
ing companies or processes and  
recording methods. In such circum-  
stances, if you still continue to use  
those CDs, they may cause the mal-  
function of your car audio system.  
• It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA  
files without permission. Use CDs that  
are created only by lawful means.  
• Do not apply volatile agents such as  
benzene and thinner, normal cleaners  
and magnetic sprays made for ana-  
logue disc onto CDs.  
NOTICE - Playing an  
To prevent the disc surface from get-  
ting damaged. Hold and carry CDs by  
the edges or the edges of the center  
hole only.  
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.  
• Clean the disc surface with a piece of  
soft cloth before playback (wipe it from  
the center to the outside edge).  
• Do not damage the disc surface or  
attach pieces of sticky tape or paper  
onto it.  
• Make sure nothing other than CDs are  
inserted into the CD player (Do not  
insert more than one CD at a time).

CAUTION IN USING  
USB DEVICE  
• To use an external USB device,  
make sure the device is not con-  
nected when starting up the vehi-  
cle. Connect the device after  
starting up.  
• If you disconnect the external USB  
device during playback in USB  
mode, the external USB device can  
be damaged or may malfunction.  
Therefore, disconnect the external  
USB device when the audio is  
turned off or in another mode. (e.g,

nized.  
• If you start the engine when the  
USB device is connected, it may  
damage the USB device. (USB  
flashdrives are very sensitive to  
electric shock.)  
• Depending on the type and capacity  
of the external USB device or the  
type of the files stored in the device,  
there is a difference in the time  
taken for recognition of the device.  
• Use only a USB device formatted  
to FAT 12/16/32.
