Your Delco@  audio system has been designed  to operate 
easily and give years  of listening pleasure. 
You will  get 
the most enjoyment out  of it if 
you acquaint yourself 
with  it first.  Find out what your Delco system can  do 
and  how  to operate  all its controls, to be sure  you're 
getting the  most out 
of the advanced  engineering that 
went  into it.

Adjusting  the  Speakers 
BAL: This control  ring  behind  the  PWR-VOL-PROG-RCL 
knob  adjusts  the  balance  between  the  left  and  right  speakers. 
FADE: This  control ring behind the TUNE-AM-FM 
knob adjusts the balance between the front  and 
rear speakers. 
Playing a Cassette Tape 
Your  tape player is built to work best  with tapes that are 
30 to 45 minutes long on each  side. Tapes  longer  than 
that are 
so thin  they  may not work  well  in  this  player. 
Once  the  tape  is  playing,  use  the  PWR-VOL-PROG-RCL 
knob, just as you  do for  radio. A lighted  arrow will be 
displayed  to show  tape  play  direction. 
Cr02: This  button lets you set the system  for the type of 
cassette  being used. 
If you are using chrome  or metal 
tapes, press the button  in. 
FORWARD: Press the arrow button  in the direction that 
the lighted arrow points to  advance quickly to another 
part  of  the tape. Press STOP-EJECT  lightly  to stop 
forwarding and  play the tape. 
REVERSE: Press  the arrow button in the opposite 
direction  that the lighted arrow points to reverse quickly 
to  another  part 
of the tape. Press STOP-EJECT  lightly 
to stop reversing and play the tape. 
SEARCH: Press  this  button  to the  recessed  position. 
Press  the  lighted  arrow  to skip to  the  next  selection.  Press 
the  opposite  direction  mow that  is  not  lighted  to  replay 
the  current  selection  or  skip  to the  previous  selection. 
PWR-VOL-PROG-RCL: Press this knob  to go from 
one side  of 
the tape to the  other. 
STOP-EJECT Press this button to remove the tape or 
stop  playing  the tape to play 
the radio. 
Your Delco system may be able  to receive 
C-QUAM@stereo  broadcasts. Many AM stations around 
the country  use C-QUAM to produce stereo, though 
some do  not. C-QUAM  is 
a registered trademark of 
Motorola, Inc. If your Delco system can get C-QUAM 
signals,  your STEREO  light will 
come on when  you  are 
receiving  stereo.

ERR appears  on 
the display:

should  play  when  the road gets smoother.)

It  is dirty, scratched  or wet. 
It  is  very  humid. (If so, wait about  an hour  and

Theft-Deterrent  Feature 
Delco LOC II@ is a theft-deterrent  feature for the 
compact disc  player. 
It can be used or ignored.  If ignored, 
the system plays  normally. If used,  your  player won’t  be 
usable 
if it is ever stolen, because it won’t  turn on. 
The  instructions  below tell  you  how to enter a secret 
code  into the  system.  It 
is recommended  that  you  read 
through  all  11 steps before starting the procedure.  If 
your vehicle loses battery power  for any reason,  you 
must unlock  the system  with your  secret  code before the 
radio  will turn on. 
NOTE: If  you  allow more than 15 seconds to elapse 
between any steps, 
the radio automatically reverts to 
time and  you must start the procedure  over at Step 4.

To help avoid hearing loss or damage: 
Adjust the volume  control to the  lowest  setting. 
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably 
and clearly. 
. 
NOTICE: 
Before  you  add  any  sound  equipment  to  your 
vehicle 
-- like a tape  player, CB radio;  mobile 
telephone  or two-way  radio 
-- be  sure  you can  add 
what  you want. 
If you can,  it’s very  important  to 
do  it  properly.  Added  sound  equipment  may 
interfere  with the  operation 
of your  vehicle’s 
engine,  Delco radio  or  other  systems, and even 
damage  them. Your  vehicle’s  systems  may 
interfere  with the  operation 
of sound  equipment 
that  has  been added  improperly. 
So, before  adding  sound  equipment,  check  with 
your  retailer  and 
be sure  to  check  Federal  rules 
covering  mobile  radio  and  telephone  units. 
Care of Your  Cassette  Tape  Player 
A tape player that is not cleaned  regularly can cause 
reduced sound quality, ruined cassettes  or a damaged 
mechanism. Cassette tapes should  be stored  in their 
cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and 
extreme  heat. If they aren’t, they  may  not operate 
properly 
or may  cause failure  of the tape  player. 
Your  tape player should  be cleaned regularly after every 
50 hours  of use.  If you  notice  a reduction  in sound 
quality,  try a known  good cassette 
to see if the  tape or 
the tape player  is  at fault. If this other  cassette has no 
improvement in sound quality,  clean the tape  player. 
Cleaning  may  be done 
with a  scrubbing  action, 
non-abrasive  cleaning cassette with pads  which scrub 
the tape  head as the hubs  of the cleaner cassette turn.  It 
is normal for the cassette  to  eject  while cleaning. Insert 
the cassette  at least three times 
to ensure thorough 
cleaning. 
A scrubbing action cleaning cassette is 
available through your Oldsmobile retailer. 
You  may  also choose 
a non-scrubbing  action, wet-type 
cleaner  which uses a cassette with  a fabric  belt 
to clean 
the tape head.  This type of cleaning  cassette will  not 
eject.  It  may  not  clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing 
type cleaner.

Cassettes  are subject to wear and the sound quality  may 
degrade  over  time.  Always make  sure  that the cassette 
tape  is in good  condition  before you have your tape 
player  serviced. 
Care of Your  Compact  Discs 
Handle  discs  carefully. Store them in their original  cases 
or  other  protective  cases  and away  from  direct sunlight 
and  dust.  If the  surface  of a disc is  soiled,  dampen  a 
clean,  soft  cloth  in a mild, neutral  detergent solution and 
clean  it,  wiping from 
the center  to the edge. 
Be  sure  never 
to touch the signal  surface  when handling 
discs.  Pick up discs  by grasping the  outer  edges  or  the 
edge 
of the hole and the  outer  edge. 
Fixed  Mast  Antenna 
The fixed mast  antenna can withstand most car washes 
without being  damaged. If the mast should  ever  become 
slightly bent,  you can straighten 
it out by hand.  If  the 
mast  is badly bent,  as it might be  by vandals,  you should 
replace 
it. 
Check  every once in a while  to be  sure  the mast  is still 
tightened  to the fender.
