Using the Automatic Memory Load feature
*
[AS03530(BEF )04/95]
You can activate theAuto Memory Load
feature by pressing and holding the ªAUTO
PRESETº buttonfor approximately three
seconds. Auto Memory Load sets all memory
buttons in AM, FM1 and FM2 sequentially by
seeking out the first five strong stations for
the respective band and storing them in
memory buttons 1-5. (FM2 will store the
second set of strong stations from the FM
band.)
*
[AS03800(BEF )06/95]
With Auto Memory Store, you can
continually set strong stations into your
memory buttons without losing your existing
memory presets, which is especially handy
while traveling. Your radio will automatically
set your memory buttons to the strong local
stations so you don't have to continually
manually tune to existing stations.

Common Radio Reception Conditions
*
[AS35300(BEF )02/95]
Several conditions prevent FM reception from
being completely clear and noise-free, such as
the following:
*
[AS35400(BEF )04/95]
1. Distance/Strength
*
[AS35500(BEF )02/95]
The strength of the FM signal is directly related
to the distance the signal must travel. The
listenable range of an average FM signal is
approximately 25 miles (40 kilometers). Beyond
this distance, the radio is operating in a fringe
area and the signal becomes weaker.
*
[AS35575( EF )07/90]
NOTE: Always make sure your antenna
(Whether you have a power antenna or
a manually adjustable antenna) is fully
extended to its maximum length for
proper reception. If your antenna is not
fully extended, you may experience
signal loss while traveling in fringe
reception areas.
*
[AS35600(BEF )04/95]
2. Terrain
*
[AS35700(BEF )02/95]
The terrain (hilly, mountainous, tall buildings) of
the area over which the signal travels may
prevent the FM signal from being noise-free.

When to use 1 (Low)
*
[DR02200( EF )06/92]
Use 1 (Low) to drive up steep grades and to
provide maximum engine braking on hilly roads.
Upshifts from 1 (Low) can be made by manually
shifting to 2 (Second) or D (Drive). Selection of 1
(Low) gear provides only First gear operation at
start-up. When driving, manually shifting to 1
(Low) will result in downshifts to Second gear
or First gear depending on vehicle speed.
*
[DR02250( EF )12/91]
NOTE: Do not drive faster than 30 mph
(48 km/h) in this gear.
*
[DR02300( EF )01/95]
P (Park)
*
[DR02400( EF )03/94]
Always come to a complete stop before you shift
into P (Park). This position locks the
transmission and prevents the rear wheels from
turning. To securely latch the gearshift in the P
(Park) position, pull it toward you, push it
completely counterclockwise against the stop,
and then push it toward the instrument panel.
*
[DR02450( EF )03/94]
The gearshift is securely latched in P (Park) if
you cannot rotate it in a clockwise direction
without lifting it toward you.
*
[DR02500( EF )06/95]
RWARNING
Always set the parking brake fully and
make sure the gearshift is securely latched
in P (Park).
*
[DR02600( EF )06/95]
RWARNING
Never leave your vehicle unattended
while it is running.
