Presetting

The preset buttons allow you to
store radio frequencies for later
selection. Each button will store
one frequency on the AM band, and
two on the FM band by pushing

FM1 and
FM2.
To store a frequency:
1. Select the desired band, AM or FM. FM1 and FM2 lets you store
two frequencies with each Preset

button.

2. Use the TUNE or SEEK func- tion to tune the radio to a desired

station.

3. Pick the Preset button you want for that station. Press the buttonand hold it until you hear a beep.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to store a total of six stations on AM and
twelve on FM.
Once that station's frequency is
stored, simply press and release the
proper preset button to tune to it. If
you want to change any preset
button's selection, store another fre- quency as described. The frequen-
cies you preset will be lost if your
car's battery goes dead or is discon-

nected.

Audio System (Si, SR)

The AUTO SELECT function allows you to find stations easily
when you are in an unfamiliar area. Press the AUTO SELECT button.
The system automatically scans
both bands to find six strong stations on AM and twelve on FM,
and stores their frequencies in the
Preset buttons. You can then use
the Preset buttons in the normal
manner to select those stations. "AUTO SELECT" stays displayed
next to the frequency as a reminder.
If you are in a remote area, AUTO
SELECT may not find enough
stations to fill all the available
presets. If this is the case, you will
see a "0" displayed when you press
any Preset button that does not
have a station stored. AUTO SELECT does not erase the
stations you have manually preset.
Turn off AUTO SELECT when
you return to your normal recep-
tion area by pressing the button
again. The light goes out and the
Preset buttons can then select the
stations you originally set. You cannot manually store radio
station frequencies in the Preset
buttons when AUTO SELECT is
ON. If you do not like the stations
found by AUTO SELECT, you can
still use the TUNE or SEEK
function to find other stations.

Theft Protection
Theft Protection is standard on the Si and Si 4WS models in the U. S.,
and the SR and SR 4WS models in

Canada.

Your audio system is protected by a code number. The system immedi-
ately disables itself whenever the
radio/player unit is disconnected
from the battery. To make it work again, you must enter a five-digit
code with the station Preset
buttons.
Your dealer should have given you
two copies of your audio system's
code number with your car. Keep one of these copies at home, and
the other in your wallet or a con- cealed place in the car. If your car's battery is discon-
nected or goes dead, the audio
system will disable itself. The next
time you turn on the radio you will
see "Code" in the frequency display.
Use the Preset buttons to enter the
five-digit code. If entered correctly,
the radio will start to play.
You will then have to store your
favorite stations in the Preset
buttons. Your original settings
were lost when power was discon-
nected.

Battery

If the terminals are severely cor-
roded, clean them with baking soda
and water. Then use a wrench to
loosen and remove the cables from the terminals. Always disconnect
the negative ( — ) cable first and
reconnect it last. Clean the battery
terminals with a terminal cleaning
tool or wire brush. Reconnect and
tighten the cables, then coat the terminals with grease.
If you need to connect the battery
to a charger, disconnect both cables
to prevent damage to the car's
electrical system.
If your car's battery is discon-
nected or goes dead, the audio
system will disable itself. The next
time you turn on the radio you will
see "Code" in the frequency display.
Use the Preset buttons to enter the
five-digit code (see page 95 ). Charging the battery with the
cables connected can seriously
damage your car's electronic
controls. Detach the battery cables
before connecting the battery to a
charger.
