Troubleshooting

Symptom

Solution

An Apple Car-

established.

Check if the device supports Apple Car-
Play/Android Auto.
Check if Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is 
enabled on the connected device.
Check if that the Android Auto application is 
installed to the device to be connected.
For details, refer to 
Apple CarPlay: https://www.apple.com/ios/car-
play/.
Android Auto: https://www.android.com/auto/.

Check if “Apple CarPlay”/“Android Auto” of 
“Projection Settings” on the general settings 
screen is set to on. (

Check if the USB cable being used is securely 
connected to the device and USB port.
Check that the device is connected directly to 
the USB port of the system and not connected 
to a USB hub.
For Apple CarPlay: Check if the Lightning cable 
being used is certified by Apple. Check if Siri is 
enabled.

After checking all of the above, try to establish

As the system is not designed to play video

Although an Apple Car-

Check if the USB cable being used to connect 
the device to the system is damaged.
To check if the USB cable is damaged inter-
nally, connect the device to another system, 
such as a PC, and check if the device is recog-
nized by the connected system. (The device 
should begin charging when connected.)

Radio operation

• Look for the Sirius, XM, SiriusXM, 

Band, SAT, AUX, Radio or Source

Channel 0. If you don’t see your 

number there, go to siri-

usxm.com/activationhelp to find it. 

Visit siriusxm.com/refresh or call 

1-855-MYREFRESH (697-3373) 

to send a refresh signal to your

Each SiriusXM tuner is identified 
with a unique radio ID. The radio 
ID is required when activating 
an SiriusXM service or when 
reporting a problem.



If “Ch 000” is selected using 
the “TUNE SCROLL” knob, 
the ID code, which is 8 alpha-
numeric characters, will be 
displayed. If another channel 
is selected, the ID code will no 
longer be displayed. The 
channel (000) alternates 
between displaying the radio 
ID and the specific radio 
code.

When problems occur with the SiriusXM tuner, a message will 
appear on the screen. Referring to the table below to identify the 
problem, take the suggested corrective action.

5-10.Tips for operating the audio/visual system

●

The use of a cellular phone inside 

or near the vehicle may cause a 

noise from the speakers of the 

audio/visual system which you are 

listening to. However, this does 

not indicate a malfunction.

Usually, a problem with radio 
reception does not mean there 
is a problem with the radio 



 it 

is just the normal result of condi-
tions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings 
and terrain can interfere with FM 
reception. Power lines or phone 
wires can interfere with AM sig-
nals. And of course, radio sig-
nals have a limited range. The 
farther the vehicle is from a sta-
tion, the weaker its signal will 
be. In addition, reception condi-
tions change constantly as the 
vehicle moves.
Here, some common reception 
problems that probably do not 
indicate a problem with the radio 
are described.

■

FM

Fading and drifting stations: 
Generally, the effective range of 

FM is about 25 miles (40 km). 
Once outside this range, you 
may notice fading and drifting, 
which increase with the distance 
from the radio transmitter. They 
are often accompanied by dis-
tortion.
Multi-path: FM signals are 
reflective, making it possible for 
2 signals to reach the vehicle’s 
antenna at the same time. If this 
happens, the signals will cancel 
each other out, causing a 
momentary flutter or loss of 
reception.
Static and fluttering: These 
occur when signals are blocked 
by buildings, trees or other large 
objects. Increasing the bass 
level may reduce static and flut-
tering.
Station swapping: If the FM sig-
nal being listened to is inter-
rupted or weakened, and there 
is another strong station nearby 
on the FM band, the radio may 
tune in the second station until 
the original signal can be picked 
up again.

■

AM

Fading: AM broadcasts are 
reflected by the upper atmo-
sphere 



 especially at night. 

These reflected signals can 
interfere with those received 
directly from the radio station, 
causing the radio station to 
sound alternately strong and 
weak.
