Audio Systems
Your 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 audio 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.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, you can play your audio
system even after the ignition is off. See ªRetained
Accessory Powerº in the Index.
Setting the Clock
Press and hold HR until the correct hour appears. The
letter A or P may appear on the display for AM or PM.
Then, press and hold MN until the correct minute
appears. The clock may be set with the ignition on
or off.
AM-FM Stereo with Cassette Tape and
Compact Disc Player with Automatic
Tone Control
Standard radio--Bose
not shown
If your vehicle is equipped with the Bose

AM-FM
Stereo with Cassette Tape and Compact Disc Player
(not shown), automatic tone control is not available.
Your radio will have a MUTE button rather than a
TONE button.

3-11
Playing a Cassette Tape
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer
than that are so thin they may not work well in this player.
The longer side with the tape visible should face to the
right. If the ignition is on, but the radio is off, the tape
can be inserted and will begin playing. If you hear
nothing but a garbled sound, the tape may not be in
squarely. Press EJECT to remove the tape and start over.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, FADE, BAL,
TREB, BASS, TONE, SEEK and SCAN controls just as
you do for the radio. (The TONE control is not available
on the Bose radio.) Other controls may have different
functions when a tape is inserted. The display will show
TP with a box around it and an arrow to show which
side of the tape is playing.
Your tape bias is set automatically. When a metal or
chrome tape is inserted, HI
-BIAS appears on the
display. If you want to insert a tape when the ignition is
off, first press EJECT or RCL.If E and a number appear on the radio display and the
tape won't play because of an error, it could be that:

E10: The tape is tight and the player can't turn the
tape hubs. Remove the tape. Hold the tape with the
open end down and try to turn the right hub
counterclockwise with a pencil. Turn the tape over
and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily, your tape
may be damaged and should not be used in the
player. Try a new tape to make sure your player is
working properly.

E11: The tape is broken. Try a new tape.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, please contact your dealer. If your radio
displays an error number, write it down and provide it to
your dealer when reporting the problem.
REV (1): Press this button to reverse the tape rapidly.
Press it again to return to playing speed. The radio will
play the last selected station while the tape reverses.
You may select stations during REV operation by
using TUNE.
FWD (2): Press this button to advance quickly to
another part of the tape. Press the button again to return
to playing speed. The radio will play the last selected
station while the tape advances. You may select stations
during FWD operation by using TUNE.

other side of the tape. If a compact disc is playing in the
console
-mounted CD changer, press this button to go to
the next available CD.SEEK: Press the up arrow to tune to the next radio
station and the down arrow to tune to the previous
radio station.

will advance with the up arrow and reverse with the
down arrow.

silence the system. Press it
again to turn on the sound.

arrow to increase or
decrease volume.
