Audio system operating hints
NOTICE
To ensure correct audio system op-
erations:
z Be careful not to spill beverages
over the audio system.
z Do not put anything other than a
cassette tape or compact disc into
the slot.
z The use of a cellular phone inside
or near the vehicle may cause a
noise from the speakers of the au-
dio system which you are listening
to. However, this does not indicate
a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
FM broadcasts have a range of about 40
km or 25 miles. When driving away from
a station you may have to fine−tune your
radio and turn up the volume as the sta-
tion gets weaker. Because FM uses a
line−of−sight signal, tall buildings or hills
may sometimes block reception. These
are all normal characteristics of FM recep-
tion and do not indicate any problem with
the radio itself.

cassette tapes. The easiest way to
clean them is by using a cleaning tape.
(A wet type is recommended.)
Use high−quality cassettes.
Low−quality cassette tapes can cause
D
many problems, including poor sound,
inconsistent
playing
constant auto−reversing. They can also
get stuck or tangled in the cassette
player.
Do not use a cassette if it has been
D
damaged or tangled or if its label is
peeling off.
Do not leave a cassette in the player
D
if you are not listening to it, especially
if it is hot outside.
Store cassettes in their cases and out
D
