    3. XM Satellite Radio


      1. XM satellite radio is a service that uses the signals from 2 satellites in geostationary orbit to make it possible to capture digital radio broadcasts (XM satellite radio) from over 170 channels. XM satellite radio enables users to constantly receive their favorite programs.

    4. HD Radio


      1. In-Band On-Channel (IBOC) type digital radio broadcasts (HD Radio) can be received. In-Band On-Channel (IBOC) adds digital signals to the existing analog signal band range and both sidebands, enabling analog FM-sound quality for AM stations and CD-sound quality for FM stations. When the digital signals cannot be received, the radio automatically switches to analog signal reception mode.

        A01HLXXE01

      2. The HD radio tuner can receive simple broadcast data along with digital audio broadcast data, enabling support for a multi-broadcast function. With this function, 2 programs, such as the main program and music, can be received simultaneously. Additionally, tag information from the received station can be stored in memory.

        Tech Tips

        HD radio is a trademark of iBiquity Digital Corporation.

    5. Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL)


      1. The Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL) function automatically adjusts the sound volume in order to enable clear audio quality even when vehicle noise increases (as vehicle noise increases, the volume is turned up, etc.).

      2. Vehicle speed signals are received from the combination meter assembly and used for ASL control.

    6. USB Audio System


      1. A USB port is provided that enables operation of a USB memory stick, Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) device, portable audio player (USB type), iPhone, iPod, iPod classic, iPod nano or iPod touch.

  3. MAIN FEATURES


    1. XM Satellite Radio


      1. XM satellite radio is a subscription type digital broadcast service.

      2. In addition to the 2 satellites, XM satellite radio is supported by 800 satellite earth stations (repeaters). As a result, it can receive broadcasts throughout the U.S.A. (except Hawaii and Alaska) and most parts of Canada.

      3. If the signals from the satellites are disrupted by a tunnel, gulch, or high-rise buildings, the simultaneous broadcast (called "gap filler") through ground based signals helps achieve excellent reception that is free of interruptions.

      4. XM satellite radio produces near CD-quality sound using a digital satellite broadcast. It is particularly convenient for long-distance drivers because it is unnecessary to tune to different stations.
