Audiosystems - Buick 1994 Century Owner's Manual

Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been designed to operate
easily and give years
of listening pleasure. But 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.
AM Stereo
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.
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 also
pick up noise from things like storms and power lines.
Try reducing the treble to lower this noise.
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 indicator light will come on when you are
receiving it.
Be aware that hearing damage from loud noise is almost
undetectable until it is too late. Your hearing can adapt
to
higher volumes of sound. Sound that seems normal
can be loud and harmful to your hearing. Take
precautions by adjusting the volume control on your
radio to a safe sound level before your hearing adapts
to it.
