How car audio works
AM (MW, LW) and FM radio signals are
broadcast from transmitter towers locat-
ed 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 pos-
sible quality reproduction. However, in
some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear. This
can be due to factors such as the dis-
tance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong radio stations or the pres-
ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area.AM (MW, LW) broadcasts can be
received at greater distances than FM
broadcasts. This is because AM(MW,
LW) radio waves are transmitted at low
frequencies. These long, low frequency
radio waves can follow the curvature of
the earth rather than travelling straight
out into the atmosphere. In addition, they
curve around obstructions so that they
can provide better signal coverage.

Using a mobile phone or a two-way
radio
When a mobile phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio equipment. This does not meanthat something is wrong with the audio
equipment. In such a case, use the
mobile phone at a place as far as possi-
ble from the audio equipment. Care of discs
If the temperature inside the car is too
high, open the car windows for ventila-
tion before using your car audio.
It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA files without permission. Use CDs that
are created only by lawful means.
Do not apply volatile agents such as benzene and thinner, normal cleaners
and magnetic sprays made for ana-
logue disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from get- ting damaged. Hold and carry CDs bythe edges or the edges of the centre
hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe it fromthe centre to the outside edge).
Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or paperonto it.
Make sure nothing other than CDs are inserted into the CD player (Do not
insert more than one CD at a time). Keep CDs in their cases after use to
protect them from scratches or dirt.
Depending on the type of CD-R/CD- RW CDs, certain CDs may not operate
normally depending upon manufactur-ing companies or processes and
recording methods. In such circum-
stances, if you still continue to use
those CDs, they may cause the mal-
function of your car audio system.
✽✽ NOTICE - Playing an
Incompatible Copy
Protected Audio CD
Some copy protected CDs, which do not
comply with the international audio CD
standards (Red Book), may not play on
your car audio. Please note that if you
try to play copy protected CDs and the
CD player does not perform correctly
the CDs maybe defective, not the CD
player.CAUTION
When using a communication sys- tem such a mobile phone or a radioset inside the vehicle, a separateexternal antenna must be fitted.
When a mobile phone or a radio setis used with an internal antennaalone, it may interfere with the vehi-cle's electrical system and adverse-
ly affect safe operation of the vehi-cle.
WARNING
Don't use a mobile phone when you
are driving. You should stop at a
safe place to use a mobile phone.
