CD CHANGER NO DISCS is displayed when an empty
magazine is inserted in the CD changer. Try the
magazine again with a disc loaded on one of the trays.
(This message does not appear in the display on the
standard
AM-FM Stereo radios.)
If any error occurs repeatedly or
if an error cannot be
corrected, please contact your dealer. If your radio
displays
an error number, write it down and provide it to
your dealer when reporting the problem.
Radio Personalization (If Equipped)
With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest radio
settings as adjusted the last time your vehicle was
operated. This feature allows two different drivers to
store and recall their own radio settings. The settings
recalled by the radio are determined by which RKE
transmitter
(“1” or “2”) was used to enter the vehicle.
The number on the back
of the RKE transmitter
corresponds to driver
1 or to driver 2. After the unlock
button is pressed on the RKE transmitter or the ignition
key is placed in the ignition,
the radio settings will
automatically adjust to where they were last set. The
settings can also be changed by briefly pressing the
memory seat buttons
1 or 2 located on the driver’s door.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
Your Cadillac has a “built-in” theft-deterrent feature on
each radio that is automatic
-- there is no programming
required. The radio in your Cadillac cannot be used in
any other vehicle besides another Cadillac if
it were to
be removed.

VO1 ME: Press the up
arrow lever to increase
volume and the down arrow
lever to decrease volume.
SELECT: When listening to the radio, press the up or
down arrow lever to tune to the next or previous radio
station (factory presets which have not been
reprogrammed with your stations will be ignored).
When listening to a cassette tape, the up or down mow
lever can be used to
SEEK forward and rearward
through the tape. Pressing the up or down arrow lever
when listening
to a CD will cause the player to go to the
next or previous selection.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals
will reach only about
10 to 40 miles (1 6 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.
3-30
Page 194 of 386

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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, Cadillac
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 dealer 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 or CLEAN
TAPE to indicate that you have used your tape player for
50 hours without resetting the tape clean timer. Each time
the cassette is cleaned, the
50 hour cassette timer should
be reset.
This is done by holding down the eject button
for three seconds until the
TAPE CLEAN message is
displayed. 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. It is normal for the cassette to eject while cleaning.
Insert the
cassette at least six times to ensure thorough cleaning.
Page 195 of 386

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Some cleaning cassettes or CD adapter kits may appear
as a broken tape. If the cleaning cassette is ejected
immediately from the tape player, follow these steps for
the TAPE CLEAN OVERRIDE feature:
1. Turn the ignition to RUN or ACC.
2. Turn the radio off.
3. Press and hold the SOURCE button for three
seconds. After three seconds, the tape icon will flash
indicating the cut tape feature is now turned
off.
4.
Turn the radio on and insert the cleaning cassette (or
the CD adapter
kit).
5. Eject the tape after the tape player has been cleaned.
When the cleaning cassette has been ejected, the broken
tape detection feature is active again.
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 will not
eject and, it may not clean as thoroughly as the
scrubbing type cleaner.
Cassettes
are subject to wear and the sound quality
may degrade over time. Always make sure 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.
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.
2. Dampen a clean cloth with mineral spirits or
equivalent solvent.
3. Wipe the cloth over the mast sections, removing any dirt.

5.
6.
Wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Make the antenna go up and down by turning the
radio
or ignition off and on.
Repeat if necessary.
I NOTICE:
Don’t lubricate the power antenna. Lubrication
could damage it.
NOTICE:
Before entering an automatic car wash, turn off
your radio to make the power antenna go down.
This will prevent the mast from possibly getting
damaged.
If the antenna does not go down when
you turn the radio
off, it may be damaged or
need to be cleaned. In either case, lower the
antenna by hand by carefully pressing the
antenna down.
If the mast portion of your antenna is damaged, you can
easily replace it. See your dealer for a replacement
kit
and follow the instructions in the kit.
