FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals can only reach
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.
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 electrical storms and power lines. If
the noise interferes with your listening, try reducing the treble to lessen the
noise.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco@ system can receive C-QUAM@ stereo broadcasts.
Many AM stations around
the country use C-QUAM@ to produce stereo,
though some
do not. If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAM@, your
“STEREO” light will come on when you’re receiving it. (C-QUAM’ is a
registered trademark of Motorola, Inc.).
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 Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can result in reduced sound
quality, ruined cassettes, or a damaged player mechanism. Cassette tapes
should be stored
in their plastic cases away from contaminants, direct
sunlight, and extreme heat.
If they aren’t, they may not operate properly or
cause failure
of the tape player.
As regular maintenance, your tape player should be cleaned each month or
after every
15 hours of use. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a
known good cassette to see
if the tape or the tape player is at fault. If this
other cassette has no improvement
in sound quality, clean the tape player.
Clean your tape player with a
wiping-action,
non-abrasive cleaning
cassette, and follow
the directions
provided with
it.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrade over time.
Always make sure that the cassette tape is
in good condition before you
have your tape player serviced.
