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.

Tips About Your Audio System

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:
D
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
D
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably
and clearly.
Before you add any sound equipment to your

vehicle

be sure you can add what you
want. If you can, it's very important to do it properly.
Added sound equipment may interfere with the
operation of your vehicle's engine, Delco Electronics
radio or other systems, and even damage them. Your
vehicle's systems may interfere with the operation of
sound equipment that has been added improperly.
So, before adding sound equipment, check with your
dealer and be sure to check Federal rules covering
mobile radio and telephone units.
