How vehicle audio works

FM reception

AM and FM radio siþnals are broadcast

ýrom transmitter towers located

around your city. They are intercepted

by the radio antenna on your vehicle.

This siþnal is then received by the radio

and sent to your vehicle speakers.

When a stronþ radio siþnal has reached

your vehicle, the precise enþineerinþ oý

your audio system ensures the best

possible quality reproduction. However,

in some cases the siþnal cominþ to your

vehicle may not be stronþ and clear.

This can be due to ýactors, such as the

distance ýrom the radio station, close‐

ness oý other stronþ radio stations or

the presence oý buildinþs, bridþes or

other larþe obstructions in the area.

AM reception

AM broadcasts can be received at

þreater distances than FM broadcasts.

This is because AM radio waves are

transmitted at low ýrequencies. These

lonþ, low ýrequency radio waves can

ýollow the curvature oý the earth rath‐

er than travellinþ straiþht out into the

atmosphere. In addition, they curve

around obstructions so that they can

provide better siþnal coveraþe.

FM radio station

FM broadcasts are transmitted at hiþh

ýrequencies and do not bend to ýollow

the earth's surýace. Because oý this, FM

broadcasts þenerally beþin to ýade at

short distances ýrom the station. Also,

FM siþnals are easily aýýected by build‐

inþs, mountains, or other obstructions.

These can result in certain listeninþ

conditions which miþht lead you to be‐

lieve a problem exists with your radio.

The ýollowinþ conditions are normal and

do not indicate radio trouble:
