Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater and
defroster will work far better, reducing the chance of
fogging the inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, move the fan
control lever toward the fan symbol for a few moments
before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of
snow and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging
the inside of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects.
This helps air to circulate throughout your vehicle.
Audio Systems
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily
and give years of listening pleasure. You will get the
most enjoyment out of it if you acquaint yourself with it
first. Find out what your audio 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.

Playing a Cassette Tape
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer
than that are so thin they may not work well in this
player. The longer side with the tape visible should face
to the right. If the ignition is on, but the radio is off, the
tape can be inserted and will begin playing. If you hear
nothing but a garbled sound, the tape may not be in
squarely. Press the eject button to remove the tape and
start over.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, FAD, BAL,
TRE, BAS and SEEK controls just as you do for the
radio. The radio will display UP or the up arrow symbol
if the top side of the tape is playing. DN or the down
arrow symbol will appear if the bottom side is playing.
If the player detects a tight or broken tape, ERR (error)
will appear on the display and the player will eject the
tape. The radio will go back to playing the last
station selected.
If you want to insert a tape when the ignition is off, first
press the eject button or the RCL knob.PREV (1): Press this button or the left SEEK arrow to
go to the previous selection on the tape if the selection
has been playing for less than three seconds. If the
PREV button or the left SEEK arrow is pressed and the
current selection has been playing for more than
13 seconds, it will go to the beginning of the current
selection. If the PREV button or the left SEEK arrow is
pressed and the current selection has been playing from
3 to 13 seconds, it will go to the beginning of the
previous selection or the beginning of the current
selection, depending on the position on the tape. FR will
appear on the display while the cassette player is in
PREV mode. Your tape must have at least three seconds
of silence between each selection for PREV to work.
The sound will mute while seeking.
NEXT (2): Press this button or the right SEEK arrow to
go to the next selection on the tape. FF will appear on
the display while the cassette player is in NEXT mode.
Your tape must have at least three seconds of silence
between each selection for NEXT to work. The sound
will mute while seeking.
