For example, nearby buildings and terrain
can interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can interfere with
AM signals. And of course, radio signals
have a limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal will
be. In addition, reception conditions
change constantly as your vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a prob-
lem with your radio:
FM
Fading and drifting stations—Generally, the
effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may
notice fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio transmit-
ter. They are often accompanied by distor-
tion.
Multi−path—FM signals are reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time. If this
happens, the signals will cancel each oth-
er out, causing a momentary flutter or
loss of reception.
Static and fluttering—These occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees, or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering. Station swapping—If the FM signal you
are listening to is interrupted or weak-
ened, and there is another strong station
nearby on the FM band, your radio may
tune in the second station until the origi-
nal signal can be picked up again.
AM
Fading—AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere–especially at night.
These reflected signals can interfere with
those received directly from the radio sta-
tion, causing the radio station to sound
alternately strong and weak.
Station interference—When a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a
radio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
Static—AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static.

Changes or modifications in construc-
tion not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to op-
erate the equipment.
Radio frequently exposure. This de-
vice is approved for Mobile Applica-
tion only and, to comply with applica-

NOTICE
Do not use special shaped, trans-
parent/translucent, low quality or la-
beled discs such as those shown in
the illustrations. The use of such
discs may damage the player or
changer, or it may be impossible to
eject the disc.
 This system is not designed for use
of Dual Disc. Do not use Dual Disc
because it may cause damage to
the player or changer.
Correct Wrong
Handle the discs carefully, especially
when you are inserting them. Hold
them on the edge and do not bend
them. Avoid getting fingerprints on
them, particularly on the shiny side.
Dirt, scratches, warping, pin holes, or
other disc damage could cause the
player to skip or to repeat a section of
a chapter or track. (To see a pin hole,
hold the disc up to the light.)
Remove discs from the compact disc
player when you are not playing them.
Store them in their plastic cases away
from moisture, heat, and direct sun-
light.
To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint −
free cloth that has been dampened with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the
center to the edge of the disc (not in
circles). Dry it with another soft, lint −free
cloth. Do not use a conventional record
cleaner or anti −static device.

MADE IN CHINA
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules and RSS −210. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must
accept any interference received, includ-
ing interference that may cause unde-
sired operation.
CAUTION
Changes or modifications not ex-
pressly approved by the party respon-
sible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equip-
ment.
NOTE: This equipment has been
tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installa-
tion. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency ener-
gy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not oc-
cur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful inter-
ference to radio or television recep-
tion, which can be determined by turn-
ing the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures:
− Reorient or relocate the receiving an-
tenna.
− Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
− Connect the equipment into an outlet
on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
− Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.CAUTION: Radio Frequency Radiation
Exposure
This equipment complies with FCC/IC
radiation exposure limits set forth for
uncontrolled equipment and meets the
FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure
Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65
and RSS −102 of the IC radio frequen-
cy (RF) Exposure rules. This equip-
ment has very low levels of RF ener-
gy that it deemed to comply without
maximum permissive exposure evalua-
tion (MPE). But it is desirable that it
should be installed and operated with
at least 20 cm and more between the
radiator and person’s body (excluding
extremities: hands, wrists, feet and
legs).
Colocation: This transmitter must
not be co −located or operated in con-
junction with any other antenna or
transmitter.

CAUTION
Do not overestimate the antilock
brake system: Although the antilock
brake system assists in providing ve-
hicle control, it is still important to
drive with all due care and maintain
a moderate speed and safe distance
from the vehicle in front of you, be-
cause there are limits to the vehicle
stability and effectiveness of steering
wheel operation even with the anti
lock brake system on.
If tire grip performance exceeds its
capability, or if hydroplaning occurs
during high speed driving in the rain,
the antilock brake system does not
provide vehicle control.
Antilock brake system is not de-
signed to shorten the stopping dis-
tance: Always drive at a moderate
speed and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front of you.
Compared with vehicles without an
antilock brake system, your vehicle
may require a longer stopping dis-
tance in the following cases:
Driving on rough, gravel or snow
covered roads.
Driving with tire chains installed.
Driving over the steps such as the
joints on the road.
Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has other differ-
ences in surface height.
Install all 4 tires of specified size at
appropriate pressure: The antilock
brake system detects vehicle speeds
using the speed sensors for respec-
tive wheels’ turning speeds. The use
of tires other than specified may fail
to detect the accurate turning speed
resulting in a longer stopping dis-
tance.

Temperature A, B, C—T he tem per a-
ture grades are A (the highest), B,
and C, representing the tire’s resis-
tance to the generation of heat and
its ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions on
a specified indoor laboratory test
wheel. Sustained high temperature
can cause the material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade C cor-
responds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No.109. Grades B
and A represent higher levels of per-
formance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades for
this tire are established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not over-
loaded. Excessive speed, underinfla-
tion, or excessive loading, either sep-
arately or in combination, can cause
heat buildup and possible tire failure.
