FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen-
cy 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:
Unobstructed

Buildings
Obstructed area
Iron bridges

o Fading - As your car 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.
o 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.

AM reception
Ionosphere
AM signal reception is usually better than FM
reception. This is because AM radio waves are
transmitted at low frequency. 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. Because of this, clear
AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis-
tances than FM broadcasts.
