General information about your radio

Your vehicle's radio receives both AM and FM stations.

The quality of your reception is affected by distance, obstacles,

and signal interference.

FM signals do not follow the earth surface nor are they

reflected by the upper atmosphere. For this reason, FM broad-

casts cannot be received over long distances. AM signals fol-

low the earth's surface and are reflected by the upper

atmosphere. For this reason, AM broadcasts can be received

over longer distances.

25 to 40 mile radius

(40 to 64 km)

Because of the limited range of FM signals and the way FM

waves transmit, you may experience weak or fading FM recep-

tion. When the broadcast is blocked by mountains or similar

obstructions, reception can be disturbed.
