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 your system 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.
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). And,
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 pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco' system can 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, hc.)
If your Delco' system can get C-QUAM', your
"STEREO" light will come on when you're 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.
.TO help avoid hearing loss or damage:
0
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
0
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably
and clearly.
