B730A01L-AAT
Operation Tips
o To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from
entering the car through the ventilation
system, temporarily set the air intake con-
trol to the position.
Be sure to return the control to the po-
sition when the irritation has passed to keep
fresh air in the vehicle. This will help keep the
driver alert and comfortable.
o Air for the heating/cooling system is drawn in
through the grilles just ahead of the wind-
shield. Care should be taken that these are
not blocked by leaves, snow, ice or other
obstructions.
o To prevent interior fog on the windshield, set
the air intake control to the fresh air ( )
position, fan speed to the desired position,
turn on the air conditioning system, and
adjust temperature control to desired tem-
perature.

B740D01A-AAT
Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first
get in, open the windows for a few minutes to
expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning
system, keep all windows closed to keep hot
air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift
to a lower gear. This increases engine speed,
which in turn increases the speed of the air
conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioner off
to avoid the possibility of the engine over-
heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the
air conditioner is not used regularly, run the
air conditioner once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-
cants and keep your system in peak operat-
ing condition.

De-Humidified Heating
For dehumidified heating:
o Turn on the fan control switch (1).
o Turn on the air conditioning switch (4). The

73STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high fre-
quencies and do not bend to follow the earth's
surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts gen-
erally begin to fade at short distances from the
station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by
buildings, mountains, or other obstructions.
These can result in certain listening conditions
which might lead you to believe a problem
exists with your radio. The following conditions
are normal and do not indicate radio trouble: AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis-
tances than FM broadcasts. This is because
AM radio waves are transmitted at low fre-
quencies. These long, low frequency radio
waves can follow the curvature of the earth
rather than travelling straight out into the atmo-
sphere. In addition, they curve around ob-
structions so that they can provide better
signal coverage.
B750A02A-AAT
How Car Audio Works
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from
transmitter towers located around your city.
They are intercepted by the radio antenna on
your car. This signal is then received by the
radio and sent to your car speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached your
vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio
system ensures the best possible quality re-
production. However, in some cases the sig-
nal coming to your vehicle may not be strong
and clear. This can be due to factors such as
the distance from the radio station, closeness
of other strong radio stations or the presence
of buildings, bridges or other large obstruc-
tions in the area.Ionosphere

o Station Swapping - As an FM signal weak-
ens, another more powerful signal near the
same frequency may begin to play. This is
because your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs, select
another station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals be-
ing received from several directions can
cause distortion or fluttering. This can be
caused by a direct and reflected signal
from the same station, or by signals from
two stations with close frequencies. If this
occurs, select another station until the con-
dition has passed.
B750B03Y-AAT
Using a cellular phone or a two-way
radio
When a cellular phone is used inside the vehi-
cle, noise may be produced from the audio
equipment. This does not mean that something
is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a place as far as
possible from the audio equipment.
o Fading - As your car moves away from the
radio station, the signal will weaken and
sound will begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select another stronger
station.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large
obstructions between the transmitter and your
radio can disturb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing the tre-
ble level may lessen this effect until the
disturbance clears.
B750A04L B750A05LWARNING:Don't use a cellular phone when you are
driving. Stop at a safe place to use a cellular
phone.
