Trunk Mounted CD Changer (Option)

You must first load the magazine with discs before you
can play a compact disc. Each of the
12 trays holds one
disc. Press the button on the back

side down. If you load a disc label side up, the disc will
not play and an error will occur. Gently push the tray
back into the magazine slot. Repeat this procedure
for
loading up to 12 discs in the magazine.
Once
you have loaded the discs in the magazine, slide
open the door of the compact disc (CD) changer. Push
the magazine into the changer in the direction of the
arrow marked on top
of the magazine. Close
the door by sliding it
all the way to the left. If the
door is left partially open, the changer will not operate
and an error will occur. When the door is closed, the
changer
will begin checking for discs in the magazine.
This
will continue for up to two minutes depending on
the number
of discs loaded.
To eject the magazine from the player, slide the
CD
changer door all the way open. The magazine will
automatically eject. Remember to keep the door closed
whenever possible to keep dirt and dust from getting

All of the CD functions are controlled by the radio
buttons except
for ejecting the magazine. Whenever a
CD magazine with discs is loaded in the changer, the
compact disc symbol (CDC) will appear on the radio
display.
If the CD changer is checking the magazine for
CDs, the (CDC) symbol will flash on
the display until
the changer is ready to play. When a CD begins playing,
a disc and track number will be displayed. The disc
numbers are listed on the front of the magazine.
Compact Disc Errors
If E and a number appear on the display, an error has
occurred and the compact disc temporarily cannot play.
The CD changer will send an error message to the
receiver
to indicate:
E34: CD Changer Door Open
E35: CD Changer Cartridge Empty
If the error occurred while trying to play a CD in the
compact disc player or changer, the following conditions
may have caused the error:
The road is too rough. The disc should play when the
road
is smoother.
0 The disc is dirty, scratched, wet or upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour and
try again.
The CD changer door is open. Completely close the

door to restore normal operation.
Try the magazine again with a disc loaded
on one of

displays an error number, write it down and provide it to
your retailer when reporting the problem.

Understanding Radio Reception
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But
FM signals
will reach only about
10 to 40 miles ( 16 to 65 km). Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with
FM signals, causing
the sound to come and
go.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble
to reduce this noise if you ever get it.
Tips About Your Audio System
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable
until it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher
volumes
of sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud
and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by
adjusting the volume control on your radio to a safe
sound level before your hearing adapts to it. To
help avoid hearing loss or damage:
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably
and clearly.
NOTICE:
Before you add any sound equipment to your
vehicle
-- like a tape player, CB radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
-- be sure you can add
what you want.
If you can, it’s very important to
do it properly. Added sound equipment may
interfere with the operation of your vehicle’s
engine, Delco radio or other systems, and even
damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may interfere
with the operation of sound equipment that has
been added improperly.
So, before adding sound equipment, check with
your retailer and be sure to check Federal rules
covering mobile radio and telephone units.

Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause
reduced sound quality, ruined cassettes or a damaged
mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored in their
cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and
extreme heat. If they aren’t, they may not operate
properly
or may cause failure of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned regularly after every
50 hours of use. Your radio may display CLN to indicate
that you have used your tape player for
50 hours without
resetting the tape clean timer.
If this message appears on
the display, your cassette tape player needs to be
cleaned.
It will still play tapes, but you should clean it as
soon as possible to prevent damage to your tapes and
player.
If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a
known good cassette to see if it is the tape or the tape
player at fault. If this other cassette has no improvement
in sound quality, clean the tape player.
Cleaning may be done with a scrubbing action,
non-abrasive cleaning cassette with pads which scrub
the tape head as the hubs of the cleaner cassette
turn.
You may also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet-type
cleaner which uses a cassette with a fabric belt to clean
the tape head. This type of cleaning cassette may not
clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing type cleaner.
After you clean the player, press and hold
EJECT for
five seconds to reset the CLN indicator. The radio will
display
--- to show the indicator was reset.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may
degrade over time. Always make sure that the cassette
tape is in good condition before you have your tape
player serviced.
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.
