Fixed Mast Antenna
The fixed mast antenna can withstand most car washes without being damaged as long as it is securely attached to the base. If the mast becomes slightly bent, straighten it out by hand. If the mast is badly bent, replace it.
Occasionally check to make sure the antenna is tightened to its base.
If tightening is required, tighten by hand.
Satellite Radio Antenna
The SiriusXM Satellite Radio antenna is on the roof of the vehicle.
Keep the antenna clear of obstructions for clear radio reception.
Tall buildings or hills can interfere with satellite radio signals, causing the sound to fade in and out. In addition, traveling or standing under heavy foliage, bridges, garages, or tunnels may cause loss of the SiriusXM signal for a period of time.
If the vehicle has a sunroof, the performance of the SiriusXM system may be affected if the sunroof is open.
Chevrolet Captiva comes equipped with a fixed mast antenna for AM/FM radio reception and a separate satellite radio antenna for satellite radio services. The fixed mast antenna is typically located on the exterior of the vehicle, often on the roof or near the rear of the vehicle, and is designed to receive radio signals for AM and FM frequencies.
On the other hand, the satellite radio antenna is specifically designed to receive satellite signals for satellite radio services such as SiriusXM. This antenna is often integrated into the vehicle's roof or rear window, allowing for clear reception of satellite radio signals.
Both antennas play a crucial role in ensuring optimal radio reception for different types of radio services. It's important to keep these antennas clean and free from obstructions to maintain excellent radio performance in your Chevrolet Captiva.
