Aux, USB and iPod® port


Aux, USB and iPod® port (if equipped)
If your vehicle has an aux and/or USB(universal serial bus) port or iPod port, you can use an aux port to connect audio devices and an USB port to plug in an USB and also an iPod port to plug in an iPod.

NOTICE
When using a portable audio device connected to the power outlet, noise may occur during playback. If this happens, use the power source of the portable audio device.

How vehicle audio works


How vehicle audio works 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 signal is then received by the radio and sent to your vehicle speakers.

When a strong radio signal has reached your vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures the best possible 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 distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of buildings, bridges or other large obstructions in the area.

AM broadcasts can be received at


AM broadcasts can be received at greater distances than FM broadcasts.

This is because AM 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


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 buildings, mountains, or other obstructions.

These can result in certain 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:

• Fading - As your vehicle moves away


• 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 stronger station.

• Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter 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.

• Station Swapping - As a FM signal


• Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens, another more powerful signal 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.

• Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions can cause distortion or fluttering. This can be caused by a direct and reflected 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 receiving difficulties receiving SIRIUS satellite radio signals in the following situations.

• If you are driving in a tunnel or a covered


• If you are driving in a tunnel or a covered 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 vechicle( 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 signal from the satellite.

• If you are driving on a mountain road where is the signal blocked by mountains.

• If you are driving in an area with tall


• If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal (10 m / 30 ft.

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 SIRIUS repeater network.

NOTE:
There may be other unforeseen circumstances leading to reception
problems with SIRIUS satellite radio signal.

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 cellular phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment.

WARNING
Do not use a cellular phone while driving. Stop at a safe location to use a cellular phone.

Care of compact discs (CDs) • If the temperature inside the vehicle is too high, open the vehicle windows for ventilation before using your vehicle audio.

• 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 analogue disc onto CDs.

• To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged. Hold and carry CDs by the edges or the edges of the center hole only.

• 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 objects other than CDs are not inserted into the CD player (Do not insert more than one CD at a time).

• Keep CDs in their cases after use to protect them from scratches or dirt.

• Depending on the type of CD-R/CDRW CDs, certain CDs may not operate normally according to manufacturing companies or making and recording methods. In such circumstances, if you still continue to use those CDs, they may cause the malfunction of your vehicle audio system.

NOTICE - Playing an
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 vehicle 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.

For more information and a complete list of SIRIUS Satellite Radio channels, visit sirius.com in the United States, sirius-canada.ca in Canada, or call SIRIUS at 1-888-539-7474.

Satellite radio reception factors: To receive the satellite signal, your vehicle has been equipped with a satellite radio antenna located on the roof of your vehicle. The vehicle roof provides the best location for an unobstructed, open view of the sky, a requirement of a satellite radio system. Like AM/FM, there are several factors that can affect satellite radio reception performance: • Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other material as far away from the antenna as possible.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

SIRIUS Satellite Radio service: SIRIUS Satellite Radio is a subscriptionbased satellite radio service that broadcasts music, sports, news and entertainment programming to radio receivers, which are available for installation in motor vehicles or factory installed, as well as for the home, portable and wireless devices, and through an Internet connection on personal computer.

Vehicles that are equipped with a factory installed SIRIUS Satellite Radio system include:
• Hardware and an introductory trial subscription term, which begins on the date of sale or lease of the vehicle.

• For a small upgrade fee, access to SIRIUS music channels, and other select channels over the Internet using any computer connected to the Internet (U.S. customers only).

For information on extended subscription terms, contact SIRIUS at 1-888- 539-7474.

NOTE:
Satellite Radio requires SIRIUS® compatible receiver and a subscription service fee after trial period.

Vehicles without a factory-installed radio receiver require hardware purchase and installation. Please see your dealer for further details. All fees and programming subject to change.

Subscriptions governed by the SIRIUS Terms & Conditions available at www.sirius.com / serviceterms.

Available only in the 48 contiguous United States and the District of Columbia. Service available in Canada; see www.siriuscanada.ca
KIA shall not be responsible for any such programming changes.

Satellite Radio Electronic Serial Number (ESN): This 12-digit Satellite Serial Number is needed to re-activate, modify or track your satellite radio account.You will need this number when communicating with SIRIUS.
