NOTICE
To ensure correct audio system opera-tions:

Be careful not to spill beverages overthe audio system.

Do not put anything other than a Com-pact Disc into the slot.

The use of a cellular phone inside ornear the vehicle may cause a noisefrom the speakers of the audio sys-tem which you are listening to. How-ever, this does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception does
not mean there is a problem with your radio Ð
it is just the normal result of conditions outside
the vehicle. For example, nearby buildings and terrain
can interfere with FM reception. Power lines
or telephone wires can interfere with AM sig-
nals. And of course, radio signals have a lim-
ited
range. The farther you are from a station,
the weaker its signal will be. In addition, re-
ception conditions change constantly as your
vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception problems
that probably do not indicate a problem with
your radio:
FM
Fading and drifting stations Ð Generally, the
effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may no-
tice fading and drifting, which increase with
the distance from the radio transmitter. They
are often accompanied by distortion.
Multi-path Ð FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for two signals to reach your an-
tenna at the same time. If this happens, the
signals will cancel each other out, causing a
momentary flutter or loss of reception.
Static and fluttering Ð These occur when sig-
nals are blocked by buildings, trees, or other
large objects. Increasing the bass level may
reduce static and fluttering.

AUDIO SYSTEM
129
Station swapping Ð If the FM signal you are
listening to is interrupted or weakened, and
there is another strong station nearby on the
FM band, your radio may tune in the second
station until the original signal can be picked
up again.
AM
Fading Ð AM broadcasts are reflected by the
upper atmosphere Ð especially at night.
These reflected signals can interfere with
those received directly from the radio station,
causing the radio station to sound alternately
strong and weak.
Station interference Ð 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 broadcast.
Static Ð AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high ten-
sion power lines, lightening, or electrical mo-
tors. This results in static. CARING FOR YOUR COMPACT DISC
PLAYER AND DISCS
Your compact disc player is intended for
use with 12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.
Extremely high temperatures can keep
your compact disc player from working.
On hot days, use the air conditioning to
cool the vehicle interior before you listen
to a disc.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your compact disc player skip.
If moisture gets into your compact disc
player, you may not hear any sound even
though your compact disc player appears
to be working. Remove the disc from the
player and wait until it dries.
CAUTION
Compact disc players use an invisible
laser beam which could cause hazard-
ous radiation exposure if directed out-
side the unit. Be sure to operate the
player correctly.
Use only compact discs marked as shown
above. The following products
may not be
playable on your compact disc player.

ly when you are inserting them. Hold them
on the edge and do not bend them. A void
getting fingerprints on them, particularly
on the shiny side.

disc damage could cause the player to
skip or to repeat a section of a track. (To
see a pin hole, hold the disc up to the
light.)
Remove discs from the compact disc
player when you are not listening to them.
Store them in their plastic cases away
