The roof antenna is installed in the center at the rear part of the roof.
It is possible to remove the antenna rod by unscrewing it from its base.
FM reception
Although FM is normally static free, reception can be affected by the surrounding area, atmospheric conditions, station strength and transmitter distance. Buildings or other obstructions may cause momentary static, flutter or station interference.

Installation of accessories

Such devices may cause the electronic control system to malfunction if they are incorrectly installed or if they are not suited for the vehicle.
