Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
Your tapes will sound best if you clean your cassette
tape player from time to time. Use a non-abrasive
cleaning cassette instead of a music tape. Follow the
instructions on the cleaning cassette.
Store cassette tapes away from extreme heat or direct
sunlight. Protect the open ends from dirt or damage;
store them in their original cases or other protective
cases. Cassettes eventually wear out and you may need
to replace them
if they become noisy.

Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust.
If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling
discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or
the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Fixed Mast Antenna
The fixed mast antenna can withstand most car washes
without being damaged. If the mast should ever become
slightly bent, you can straighten it out by hand. If the
mast is badly bent, as it might be by vandals, you should
replace it.
Check every once
in a while to be sure the mast is still
tightened to the fender.
Power Antenna Mast Care
Your power antenna will look its best and work well if
it’s cleaned from time to time.
To Clean the Antenna Mast:
1. Turn on the ignition and radio to raise the antenna to

Road Signs
The road signs you see everywhere are coded by color,
shape and symbols. It's a good idea to know these codes
so that you can quickly grasp the basic meaning or
intent
of the sign even before you have a chance to read
it.

YELLOW indicates a general warning. Slow down and
be careful when you see a yellow sign. It may signal
