Rear Window Defogger
The lines you see on the
rear window warm the
glass. Press the button to
start warming your
window. After 10 minutes,
it will
go off by itself, or
pressing the button again
during the heating cycle will shut it off. If
you need
additional warming time,
push the button again.
NOTICE:
Scraping the inside of your rear window could
cut and damage the heater. Your warranty would
not cover this damage. And don’t put decals
there, you might have to scrape them
off.
Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been designed to operate
easily and give years
of listening pleasure. But you will
get the most enjoyment out
of it if you acquaint yourself
with
it first. Find out what your DelcoB system can do
and how to operate all its controls, to be sure you’re
getting
the most out of the advanced engineering that
went into
it.
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). And,
tall buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals,
causing the sound to come and go.
AM
The range for most AM stations 1s 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.
