Satellite Radio Channels:

ca in Canada.

Factors Affecting Satellite Radio Reception:

To receive a satellite signal, your vehicle is equipped with a satellite radio antenna mounted on the roof. The roof offers the best position for a clear, unobstructed view of the sky, which is required for satellite radio.

As with AM-FM reception, several factors can affect the quality of satellite radio signal reception:

  • Antenna obstruction: For best reception, keep the antenna free of snow and ice, and keep luggage and other materials as far from the antenna as possible.
  • Terrain: Hills, mountains, skyscrapers, bridges, tunnels, elevated highways, parking garages, forests and electrical storms can all interfere with reception.

SIRIUS Satellite Radio Service:

SIRIUS satellite radio is a subscription service that broadcasts music, sports, news and information to receivers that can be installed by an aftermarket service center or at the factory, as well as to home, portable and wireless receivers, and to personal computers via the Internet.

Vehicles equipped with a SIRIUS satellite radio installed at the factory include:

  • the required equipment and a free trial subscription starting on the date the vehicle is sold or leased.
  • For a small additional fee, SIRIUS music channels and other selected channels can be accessed on a computer via the Internet (United States customers only).

For subscription details, contact SIRIUS.

NOTICE

Satellite radio requires a receiver compatible with SIRIUS and payment of a subscription fee after the trial period ends.

Vehicles without a factory-installed receiver may be equipped with an aftermarket unit.

Your dealer will provide further details. Subscription fees and programming may change without notice.

Subscriptions are governed by the SIRIUS terms, available at www.sirius.com/serviceterms. Service is offered only in the 48 contiguous United States and the District of Columbia. Service is offered in Canada at www.siriuscanada.ca.

Chrysler LLC cannot be held responsible for programming changes.

Satellite Radio Electronic Serial Number (ESN): This 12-digit satellite radio serial number is required to reactivate, modify or track your satellite radio account. You will need this number to contact SIRIUS.

Using SIRIUS Satellite Radio

Activation: To extend or reactivate your SIRIUS Satellite Radio subscription, contact SIRIUS Customer Service at 1 888 539-7474.

    WARNING REGARDING BLUETOOTH PHONES
    • Do not use a cell phone or make any Bluetooth settings (e.g., pairing a phone) while driving.
    • Some Bluetooth phones may not be recognized by the system or may not be fully compatible with it.
    • Before using the Bluetooth functions of the audio system, refer to your phone's owner's manual for instructions on using its Bluetooth functions.
    • The phone must be paired with the audio system before you can use the Bluetooth functions.
    • You cannot use hands-free functions when your phone (in the vehicle) is outside the cellular service area (e.g., in a tunnel, underground or in a mountainous area).
    • If the cellular signal is weak or there is too much noise in the vehicle, it may be difficult to hear the other party's voice during a call.
    • Do not place the phone near or inside a metal object, as communication with the Bluetooth system or cellular towers may be interrupted.
    • When connected via Bluetooth, the phone may discharge faster than normal if you use additional Bluetooth functions.
    • Some cell phones and other devices may cause interference or malfunction of the audio system. In this case, moving the device to another location may solve the problem.
