Air Conditioner (Option)
The air conditioner cools the air coming into your
vehicle. The air conditioner won’t .work, well unless all
the windows are closed. On a very hot day, you might
want to open the windows to let the hottest air out.
Max
This setting provides maximum cooling with the least
amount of work. MAX recirculates the air inside your
vehicle, and cools the air quickly. Adjust the
temperature control to a cold setting.
Norm.
After using the MAX setting to cool the air quickly,
adjust the air conditioner to NORM and the temperature
to the desired comfort setting. This permits fresh air to
be cooled and to circulate through your vehicle.
Audio Systems
Your Delcoa audio system has been degigned 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
Delcom 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.
