Theft-Deterrent Feature (If Equipped)
THEFTLOCK@ is designed to discourage theft of your
radio. It works by using a secret code
to disable all radio
functions whenever battery power is removed. Your
audio system is equipped with THEFTLOCK if
THEFTLOCK is displayed on the front of the radio.
The THEFTLOCK feature for the radio may be used or
ignored. If ignored, the system plays normally and the
radio is not protected by the feature.
If THEFTLOCK is
activated, your radio will not operate if stolen.
When THEFTLOCK is activated, the radio will display
LOC to indicate a locked condition anytime battery
power has been interrupted. If your battery loses power
for any reason, you must unlock the radio with the secret
code before it will operate.

If your vehicle is equipped with the AM-FM Stereo with

seconds. The tape symbol on the display will flash

to clean
the tape head. This type of cleaning cassette will not

use of a non-scrubbing action, dry-type cleaning
cassette is not recommended. After
you clean
the player, press and hold EJECT for
five seconds to reset the CLN indicator.
The radio will
display
--- to show the indicator was reset.
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.
Care of Your Compact Disc Player
The use of CD lens cleaner discs is not advised, due to
the risk of contaminating the lens of the CD optics with
lubricants internal to the CD mechanism.

A CAUTION:
Things that burn can get on hot engine parts
and start
a fire. These include liquids like
gasoline
or diesel fuel, oil, coolant, brake fluid,
windshield washer and other fluids, and plastic
or rubber. You or others could be burned. Be
careful not to drop or spill things that will burn
onto a hot engine.
