Understanding Radio Reception
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
if you ever get it.

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, Inc.) If your
Delco@ system can get C-QUAM@, your
“STEREO” light will come on when
you’re receiving
it.

I Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their
original cases or other protective cases
and away from direct sunlight and dust. If
the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen
a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral
detergent solution and clean
it, wiping
from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface
when handling discs. Pick up discs by
grasping the outer edges
or the edge of
the hole and the outer edge.
Fixed Mast Antenna
The fixed mast antenna can withstand
most car washes without being damaged.
If the mast should ever become slightly
bent, you can straighten
it out by hand. If
the mast is badly bent, as it might be by
vandals, you should replace
it.
Check every once in a while to be sure
the mast
is still tightened to the fender.

Your Driving and the Road
A
Road Sigpts
The road signs you see everywhere are
coded by color, shape and symbols.
It’s a
good idea
to know these codes so that you
can quickly grasp the basic meaning or
intent of the sign even before you have a
chance
to read it.
ISTOPI L ENTER
WRONG
WAY
Color of Road Signs
RED means STOP. It may also indicate
that some movement
is not allowed.
Examples are
DO NOT ENTER and
WRONG WAY.
RAILROAD
ADVANCE
CROSSING
YELLOW indicates a general warning.
Slow down and be careful when you see a
yellow sign.
It may signal a railroad
crossing ahead,
a no-passing zone, or
some other potentially dangerous
situation. Likewise,
a yellow solid line
painted on the road means
“Don’t Cross.”
LOW FLAGGER
SHOULDER AHEAD
ORANGE indicates road construction or
maintenance. You’ll want
to slow down
when
you see an orange sign, as part of
the road may be closed off or torn
up.
And there may be workers and
maintenance vehicles around,
too.

GREEN is used to guide the driver.
Green signs
may indicate upcoming
freeway exits or show the direction you
should
turn to reach a particular place.
