Radio receptionRadio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external in-
fluences. Intermittent changes in reception qual-
ity normally are caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the ve-
hicle may influence radio reception quality.
Your radio system is equipped with state-of-the-
art electronic circuits to enhance radio recep-
tion. These circuits are designed to extend re-
ception range, and to enhance the quality of that
reception.
However there are some general characteristics
of FM and AM radio signals that can affect radio
reception quality in a moving vehicle, even when
the finest equipment is used. These character-
istics are completely normal in a given reception
area, and do not indicate any malfunction in your
radio system.
Remember that a moving vehicle is not the ideal
place to listen to a radio. Because of the move-ment, reception conditions will constantly
change. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and
interference from other vehicles can work
against ideal reception. Described below are
some of the factors that can affect your radio
reception.
FM radio reception:
Range: FM range is normally limited to 40 to 48
km (25 to 30 miles), with monaural (single
channel) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External influences may sometimes
interfere with FM station reception even if the FM
station is within 40 km (25 miles). The strength
of the FM signal is directly related to the distance
between the transmitter and receiver. FM signals
follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the
same characteristics as light. For example they
will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from

a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position,
usually in conjunction with increased distance
from the station transmitter, static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control counterclockwise to reduce treble
response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver at the same
time. The signals may cancel each other, result-
ing in momentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM radio reception:
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics. AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmitter
to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electricalpower lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
ANTENNAAdjust the antenna angle for the best reception.Removing the antennaYou can remove the antenna if necessary.

Audio main operationHead unit:
The tape deck employs a permalloy head which
allows for improved reproduction of high fre-
quency ranges. Noise is also greatly reduced by
the use of the Dolby NR (Noise Reduction)
system. The auto loudness circuit enhances the
low frequency range automatically in both radio
reception and tape and CD playback.
PWR/Volume control:
Turn the ignition key to ACC or ON, and then
push the PWR/VOL (Volume) control knobwhile
the system is off to call up the mode (radio, tape
or CD) which was playing immediately before
the system was turned off. When no CD or tape
is loaded, the radio will come on. While the
system is on, pushing the PWR/VOL control
knobturns the system off.
To turn the radio off, press the PWR/VOL
control knob.
Turn the PWR/VOL control knobto adjust the
volume.
MENU button:
Press the MENU button to change the selecting
mode as follows.BASS→TREBLE→FADER→BALANCE→
CLOCK ON/OFF→(clock adjustment)→
RADIO→BASS
See “CLOCK” in the “2. Instruments and con-
trols” section for the clock adjustment.
To adjust Bass, Treble, Fader and Balance,
press the MENU button until the desired mode
(BASS, TREBLE, FADER or BALANCE) ap-
pears in the display. Press the TUNE (
,
) or SEEK (
,
) button to adjust
Bass and Treble to the desired level. Use the
TUNE or SEEK button also to adjust Fader or
Balance modes. Fader adjusts the sound level
between the front and rear speakers and Bal-
ance adjusts the sound between the right and
left speakers.

disc or tape will automatically be turned off and
the last radio station played will come on.
TUNE (Tuning):WARNING
The radio should not be tuned while
driving so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
Use the TUNE button
or
for manual
tuning. To move quickly through the channels,
hold either side of the TUNE button down for
more than 0.5 seconds.
SEEK tuning:
Pushing the SEEK button
or
tunes
from high to low or low to high frequencies and
stops at the next broadcasting station.
SCANtuning:
Pushing the SCAN tuning button tunes from low
to high frequencies and stops at each broad-
casting station for 5 seconds. Pushing the but-
ton again during this 5 second period will stop
SCAN tuning and the radio will remain tuned to
that station.
If the SCAN tuning button is not pushed within 5
seconds, SCAN tuning moves to the next sta-
tion.
Station memory operations:
Twelve stations can be set for the FM band (six
for FM1, six for FM2) and six stations can be set
for both the AM bands.
1. Tune to the desired station using the SEEK,
SCAN or TUNE button.
2. Select the desired station and keep pushing
any of the desired station/preset buttons (1
to 6) until a beep sound is heard. (The radio
mutes when the station/preset button is
pushed.)
3. The channel indicator will then come on and
the sound will resume. Memorizing is now
complete.
4. Other buttons can be set in the same manner.
If the battery cable is disconnected, or ifthe fuse blows, the radio memory will be
erased. In that case, reset the desired sta-
tions.

and then lightly insert the cassette tape into the
tape door. The cassette tape will be automati-
cally pulled into the player.
The radio or CD will turn off (if it is on) and the
cassette tape will begin to play.
CAUTION
Do not force the cassette tape into the
tape door. This could cause player
damage.
If the system is turned off by pushing the
PWR/VOL control knobwith the cassette tape
still in the player, the tape will resume playing
when the system is turned back on.
