Convenience Net (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You’ll see it
on the back wall
of the trunk.
Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net.
It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns or
quick starts and stops.
The net isn’t for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can.
You can unhook the net so that it will lie flat when
you’re not using it.
You can also push the net down and
hook it under the plastic hooks.
Ashtrays and Lighter
When your vehicle is delivered, the ashtray and lighter
assembly will be in a plastic bag placed in the center
console storage area. If
the ashtray and lighter are
needed, insert the ashtray and holder into the stationary,
open cupholder in front of the shift lever.
The lighter outlet is located just below the heating and
air conditioning controls behind
a flip-out door.
Sun Visors
To block out the glare, you can swing down the visors.
You can also swing them from front to side.
Visor Vanity Mirrors
Open the cover to expose the vanity mirror. If your
vehicle has the optional lighted vanity
mirrors, the
lamps will come on when you open the cover.
Accessory Power Outlets
The power outlets are located on the lower left passenger
side and behind the flip-out door of the lighter.
The power outlets can
be used to plug electrical
equipment such as cellular telephone,
CD radio, etc.
Follow the proper installation instructions that are
included with any electrical equipment you install.

Adjusting the Speakers
BAL: Press this knob lightly so it extends. Turn the knob
to move the sound to the left or right speakers. The middle
position balances the sound between the speakers.
FADE: Press the knob lightly so it extends. Then pull
the knob all the way out.
Turn it to move the sound to
the front or rear speakers. The middle position balances
the sound between the speakers.
Push these knobs back into their stored positions when
you’re not using them.
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.
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 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, the tape
won’t play because of an error.
ElO: 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 to the left
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.
0 Ell: The tape is broken. Try a new tape.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can’t be
corrected, please contact your retailer.
If your radio
displays an error number, write it down and provide it to
your retailer 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.

the tape with the
open end down and try to turn the right hub to the left
with a pencil. Turn the tape over and repeat. If

Audio Steering Wheel Controls
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, you can control
certain radio functions
using the buttons
on your
steering wheel.
VOL: Press the up or down arrow to increase or
decrease volume.
SEEK: Press this button to tune to a higher radio
station. When playing a cassette tape or compact disc,
press
SEEK to hear the next selection. There must be
at least a three-second gap between selections on a
cassette tape.
PROG: Press this button to tune in a higher preset radio
station. When playing a cassette tape, press
PROG to
hear the other side of a tape that is playing. When using
the
CD changer, this button will seek the next selection.
Understanding Radio Reception
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines.
Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise if you ever get it.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals
will reach only about 10 to
40 miles (16 to 65 km). Tall
buildings
or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing
the sound to come and
go.
