Antenna

Glass antenna (if equipped)

When the radio power switch is turned on while the ignition key is in either the “ON” or “ACC” position, your car will receive both AM and FM broadcast signals through the antenna in the rear window glass.

CAUTION

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 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 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 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 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 difficulties in receiving XM™ satellite radio signals in the following situations.

• 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 vehicle (such as a truck or a bus) that blocks 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 trees that block the signal (30 ft. /10m or more), for example on an road that goes through a dense forest.
• The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered by the XM™ repeater network.

NOTE:

There may be other unforeseen circumstances leading to reception problems with the XM™ 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.

CAUTION

When using a communication system such a cellular phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separate external antenna must be fitted. When a cellular phone or a radio set is used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehicle's electrical system and adversely affect safe operation of the vehicle.

WARNING

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

Care of disc

• If the temperature inside the car is too high, open the car windows for ventilation before using your car 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 on undesirable matter other than CDs are 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 car 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 car 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.

Understanding Bluetooth wireless technology

Bluetooth wireless technology establishes a wireless link between two devices, such as your phone and the unit. The first time you use two devices together you must connect them by establishing a relationship using a PIN code. After the initial connecting, the two devices can connect automatically each time you turn them on.

NOTE:

• There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in some locations.
• Due to the variety of Bluetooth phones and their firmware version, your device may respond differently when performing over Bluetooth.
• As difference in functional operation by model is mainly resulted from feature of a hands-free phone, consult manufacturer of a phone if you have any question.
• You can check the Bluetooth phone compatibility list on the web-site (http://www.navigation.com/hyundai ).

Voice recognition

Voice recognition allows hands-free operation of the AV system (RADIO, CD, USB, iPod), navigation and other systems equipped on this vehicle, such as the phone.

NOTE:

To get the best recognition performance out of voice recognition, observe the following:

• Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as possible. Close the windows to eliminate the surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration sounds, etc.), which may prevent the system from recognizing the voice commands correctly.
• Wait until a beep sounds before speaking a command. Otherwise, the command will not be recognized properly.
• Speak in a natural voice without pausing between words.

Giving voice commands

1. Press () on the steering wheel remote control.

2. After the beep sounds, say "Help". All commands shall be listed which are presented in active fields.

NOTE:

• If the command is not recognized, the system announces, 1st time "Pardon?", 2nd time "Please, repeat", and 3rd time "Command is not recognized".
• If you want to cancel the voice recognition, press () one more time or press the any button or touch screen say "Cancel".
• If you want to adjust the volume of the system feedback, press VOL+ or VOL-on the steering wheel remote control or use the volume knob (VOLUME) on the control while the voice recognition is active.
