Backglass Antenna
The AM-FM antenna is integrated
with the rear window defogger,
located in the rear window. Make
sure that the inside surface of the
rear window is not scratched and
that the lines on the glass are not
damaged. If the inside surface is
damaged, it could interfere with
radio reception. For proper radio
reception, the antenna connector
needs to be properly attached to the
post on the glass.
If a cell phone antenna needs to be
attached to the glass, make sure
that the grid lines for the AM-FM
antenna are not damaged. there is
enough space between the grid
lines to attach a cell phone antenna
without interfering with radio
reception.
Notice:
Using a razor blade or
sharp object to clear the inside
rear window can damage the rear
window antenna and/or the rear
window defogger. Repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not clear the inside
rear window with sharp objects.
Notice:
Do not apply aftermarket
glass tinting with metallic film.
The metallic film in some tinting

distort the incoming radio
reception. Any damage caused to
the backglass antenna due to
metallic tinting materials will
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
