6 INTRODUCTION

Your radio is a sophisticated electronic device. Do not let
young children use your radio.
Permanent hearing loss may occur if you play your music
or the radio at loud volumes. Exercise caution when
setting the volume on your radio.
Driving is a complex activity that requires your full
attention. If you’re engaged in driving or any activity that
requires your full attention, we recommend that you not
use your radio.
WARNING!
Many features of this radio are speed dependent.
For your own safety, it is not possible to use the
touchscreen keyboard while the vehicle is in mo-
tion.
Keep drinks, rain, and other sources of moisture away
from your radio. Besides damage to your radio, moisture
can cause electric shocks as with any electronic device.
NOTE: In a convertible vehicle, the system performance
may be compromised with the roof top down.
Connections
Never force any connector into the ports of your radio.
Make sure your connectors are the correct shape and size
before you connect.
Any attached cable should be routed so that it will not
apply any pressure to the connection.
Do not use a USB device which will interfere with the
operation of opening the display.

INTRODUCTION 7

Touchscreen
Do not touch the screen with any hard or sharp objects
(pen, USB stick, jewelry, etc.) which could scratch the
touchscreen surface!
NOTE: It is possible to use a plastic stylus for press
screen enabled devices such as a PDA and Pocket PCs.
Do not spray any liquid or caustic chemicals directly on
the screen! Use a clean and dry micro fiber lens cleaning
cloth to clean the touchscreen.
If necessary, use a lint-free cloth dampened with a
cleaning solution, such as isopropyl alcohol, or an iso-
propyl alcohol and water solution ratio of 50:50. Be sure
to follow the solvent manufacturer’s precautions and
directions.
CD/DVD Drive
Do not insert any damaged, warped, scratched or dirty
CDs or DVDs into the CD/DVD player.
Discs that have been modified with an adhesive label
should not be used in the CD/DVD player.
Do not insert more than one CD/DVD at a time into the
drive slot.
Do not insert anything other than the supported CD/
DVD formats. See the Disc Mode section in this manual
for information on supported CD/DVD formats.
8 INTRODUCTION

GPS Navigation Antenna — If Equipped
The antenna for the navigation GPS system is mounted in
various locations (depending on the vehicle model)
within the dashboard or on the roof of the vehicle. Do not
place items on the dashboard or around the GPS antenna
location. Objects placed within the line of sight of the
antenna will decrease performance. Do not place items
directly on or above the antenna.
Satellite Radio Antenna — If Equipped
The antenna for the SiriusXM Satellite radio is mounted
on the roof of the vehicle. Do not place items on the roof
around the roof top antenna location. Objects placed
within the line of sight of the antenna will cause de-
creased performance. Larger luggage items should be
placed as far from the antenna as possible. Do not place
items directly on or above the antenna.
Other Electronic Devices
You may bring other electronic devices into your vehicle
(e.g., PDA, iPod®, laptop computer, etc.). Some of these
devices may cause electromagnetic interference with the
GPS. If a degradation in the navigation system is ob-
served, turn the devices off, or keep them as far away
from the GPS antenna as possible.
