• 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.

• 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.

Satellite radio reception

You may experience problems in receiv-
ing SIRIUS satellite radio signals in the
following situations.

• If you are driving in a tunnel or a cov-

ered parking area.

• If you are driving beneath the top level

of a multi-level freeway.

• If you drive under a bridge.
• If you are driving next to a tall vehicle

(such as a truck or a bus) that block the
signal.

• If you are driving in a valley where the

surrounding hills or peaks block the sig-
nal from the satellite.

• If you are driving on a mountain road

where is blocked by mountains.

• If you are driving in an area with tall

trees that block the signal(10m or
more), for example on an road that
goes through a dense forset.

• The signal can become weak in some

areas that are not covered by the
repeater station network.

Please note that these may be other
unforeseen circumstances when there
are problems with the reception of SIR-
IUS satellite radio signal.
