heavy traffic), and figures out the average fuel economy. You
can calculate your average fuel economy as often as you like.
For example, you can calculate the average fuel economy for
each tank of fuel or for every day.

Setting the station memory preset buttons
[AS03100(ALL)06/95]
Your radio is equipped with 6 station memory buttons. These
buttons can be used to select up to 6 preset AM stations and 12
FM stations (6 in FM1 and 6 in FM2). Follow the easy steps
below to set these buttons to the desired frequencies:
*
[AS03200(ALL)03/96]1.
Select a band, then select a frequency.
*
[AS03400(ALL)10/95]2.
Press one of the memory preset buttons and hold the button
until the sound returns. That station is now held in memory
on that button.
*
[AS03500(ALL)10/95]3.
Follow the two steps above for each station memory preset
button you want to set.
[AS03550(ALL)09/95]
NOTE: If the vehicle's battery is disconnected, the Station
Memory Preset buttons will need to be reset.

Using the Automatic Memory Store feature (Supersound
only)
[AS03900(ALL)07/95]
Activate Auto Memory Store by pushing the ªAUTO SETº
button once. Your radio will set the first six strong stations
of the band you are in (AM, FM1 or FM2) into the memory
buttons. The display will show ªAUTO,º then run through
the frequencies, stopping momentarily on the stations being
set into the memory buttons. The radio is now in the
ªAUTOº mode and this display will show ªAUTOº each
time a preset selected by ªAUTO SETº is activated.
[AS03950(ALL)05/96]
With Auto Memory Store, you can continually set strong
stations into your memory buttons without losing your
existing memory presets, which is especially helpful while
traveling. Your radio will automatically set your memory
buttons to the strong local stations so you don't have to
continually manually tune to existing stations.

Common Radio Reception Conditions
[AS35300(ALL)03/93]
Several conditions affect FM reception and can result in noise or
interference in the reception. These are:
[AS35400(ALL)05/96]
Distance/Strength
[AS35500(ALL)05/94]
The strength of the FM signal is directly related to the distance
the signal must travel. The listenable range of an average FM
signal is approximately 25 miles (40 km). Beyond this distance,
the radio is operating in a ªfringeº area and the signal becomes
weaker.
