If you have an ETR@
AM-FM Stereo Audio
Compact Disc ATC
System that includes a
remote cassette player,
the cassette player is
located in the center
panel.
, of the instrument
Your tape player is built
to work best with tapes that are 30 to 45 minutes
long
on each side. Tapes longer than that are so thin they may not work well
in this player.
To load a cassette tape with the ignition off, first press EJECT. Then, insert
the cassette tape.
Once
the tape is playing, use the control knobs for volume, balance, fade,
treble and bass just as you do for the radio. A lighted tape symbol shows
when a cassette tape is in the player. A lighted arrow will also appear and
show
the direction of play when a tape is active.
The player automatically senses
if the cassette tape is metal or CRO2 and
adjusts for best playback sound. For metal tapes,
00 (Dolby@ Noise
Reduction) will appear in the display.
Any time a cassette tape is inserted, the top side is selected for play first.
PREV
(1) - Press PREV or 4 SEEK (in the opposite direction that the
lighted tape direction arrow points) to search for the previous selection.
A
minimum three-second blank gap is needed for the player to stop at the
beginning
of the selection. The tape direction arrow will blink during the
SEEK operation and
the audio is in the mute mode.
PROG
(on cassette player) - Press PROG to go from one side of the tape
to the other.
NEXT
(3) - Press NEXT or SEEK (in the direction that the lighted tape
direction arrow points) to search for the next selection. A minimum
three-second blank gap is needed for the player
to stop at the beginning of
the selection. NEXT will appear in the display and the audio is in the mute
mode.

Understanding Radio Reception
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.
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.
AM Stereo means the DelcoB system can receive C-QUAM@stereo
broadcasts. Many
AM stations around the countr use C-QUAM@ to
produce stereo, though some do not. (C-QUAM
is a registered trademark
of Motorola, Inc.) If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAM@, your
“STEREO” light will come
on when you’re receiving it.
Be aware that 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:
1. Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
2. 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. And, 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 Player and Tapes
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly is subject to reduced sound
quality, ruining the cassette, or damaging the mechanism. Tape cassettes that
are not properly stored
in their plastic cases away from contaminants, direct
sunlight, and extreme heat may not operate properly and could cause
premature failure
of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned with every
50 hours of use to provide
optimum performance. Your radio may display “Cln” (Clean)
to indicate
that you have used your tape player for 50 hours without re-setting the tape
clean timer. If you notice a reduction
in sound quality, regardless of when
the tape player was last cleaned, try playing a different cassette to see if the
tape or tape player is at fault.
If the second cassette results in no
improvement
in sound quality, try cleaning the tape player.
Proper tape player cleaning should be done with
a scrubbing action,
non-abrasive cleaning cassette. This is a wet-type cleaning system that uses
a cleaning cassette with pads which scrub
the tape head as the hubs of the
cleaner cassette turn. To properly clean your tape player, follow instructions
with the cleaning cassette. If
you use this type of cleaner, the radio may
display an error and eject the cartridge. This
is normal and is the result of an
added feature
in the tape player that detects broken tapes. If an error occurs,
you will need to insert the cleaning cassette at least 3 times to thoroughly
clean the tape player.
3-27
ProCarManuals.com
Page 183 of 486

You may prefer to use a non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner. This type
of cleaner
uses a fabric belt to clean the tape head. This type of cleaner
cassette will not cause
an error, but it may not clean the tape player as
thoroughly as the scrubbing type cleaner.
A scrubbing action cleaner cassette is available through your retailer
(SPO
#12344600).
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrade over time.
Always verify that the cassette tape is in good condition and the tape player
is clean before obtaining service
on your tape player.
NOTICE:
Cassette tape adapter kits for portable CD players will not work
in your cassette player. These adapters will cause the radio to
display an error and the adapter cassette
will be ejected.
Care of 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.

This doughnut-shaped logo (symbol) is used on most oil containers to help
you select the correct oil.
You should
look for this on the oil container, and use only those oils that
display the logo.
GM Goodwrench@
oil (in Canada, GM Engine Oil) meets all the
requirements for your vehicle.
Engine Oil Additives
Don’t add anything to your oil. Your GM dealer is ready to advise if you
think something should be added.
When to Change Engine Oil
See if any one of these is true for you:
Most trips are less than 5 to I0 miles (8 to 16 km). This is particularly
important when outside temperatures are below freezing.
0 Most trips include extensive idling (such as frequent driving in stop and
go traffic).
You operate your vehicle in dusty areas or off-road frequently.
0 You frequently tow a trailer or use a carrier on top of your vehicle.
If any of
these is true for your vehicle, then you need to change your oil and
filter every
2,500 miles (4 000 km) or 3 months - whichever comes first.
If
none of them is true, change the oil and filter every 5,000 miles (8 000
km) or I2 months - whichever comes first.
What to Do with Used Oil
Did you know that used engine oil contains certain elements that may be
unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer? Don’t let used oil stay
on your skin for very long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and water,
or a good hand cleaner. Wdsh or properly throw away clothing or rags
containing used engine
oil. (See the manufacturer’s warnings about the use
and disposal
of oil products.)
Used oil can be
a real threat to the environment. If you change your own oil,
be sure to drain all free-flowing oil from the filter before disposal. Don’t
ever dispose
of oil by putting it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into
sewers, or
into streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it by taking it to
a place that collects used
oil. If you have a problem properly disposing of
your used oil, ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling center
for help.
