Antenna

Roof antenna

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.

(Continued)
• Always drive slowly and turn cor-

ners 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 vehicle or others around
you.

• To prevent damage or loss of

cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driving to
make sure the items on the roof
rack are securely fastened.

CAUTION

• Before entering a place with a low

height clearance, be sure that the
antenna is fully folded down or
removed.

• Be sure to remove the antenna

before washing the car in an auto-
matic car wash or it 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 folded or removed

when parking the vehicle or when
loading cargo on the roof rack.

• When cargo is loaded on the roof

rack, do not place the cargo near
the antenna pole to ensure proper
reception.
