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 tiahtened to the
fender.

Road Signs
The road signs you see everywhere are coded by color, shape a\
nd 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.
Color of Road Signs
mM402001
RED means S-IP. It may also indicate that some movement is not allowed.
Examples are
DO NOT ENTER and WRONG WAY.
YELLOW indicates a general warning. Slow down and be careful w\
hen 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 s\
olid
line painted on the road means "Don't Cross."

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.

Traffic Lights
I AM40201 4
We’re all familiar with traffic lights or stoplights. Often, green ar\
rows are being
used in the lights for improved traffic control. On some multilane road\
s, green
arrows light up, indicating that traffic in one or more lanes can move or make
a turn. Green arrows don’t mean “go no matter what”.
You’ll still need to
proceed with caution, yielding the right of way to pedestrians and sometimes
to other vehicles.
