Audio Systems
Your Dekoa 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 mos\
t out of
the advanced engineering that went into it.
CAUTION
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 hearing adapts to it.
To help avoid hearing loss or damage:
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly.

FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals will reac\
h 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, especi\
ally 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.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco@ system can receive C-QUAM@ stereo broadca\
sts.
Many AM stations around the country use
C-QUAM@ to produce stereo,
though some do not.
(C-QUAM@ is a re istered trademark of Motorola, Inc.)
If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAM’, 8 your “STEREO” light will come on
when you’re receiving it.
