you turn on
the ignition, but the engine
is not running, as a check to show you it
is working. Then it should go out when

you have a loose generator drive belt, or
another electrical problem. Have

CAUTION
A
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 your 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.
NU I IL-t
Before you add any sound
equipment to
your vehicle - like a
tape player,
CB radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
- be
sure you can add what you want.
If you can, it’s very important to
do it properly. Added sound
equipment may interfere with the
operation
of your vehicle’s engine,
Delco@ radio or other systems, and
even damage them. And, your
vehicle’s systems may interfere
with the operation of sound
equipment that has been added
improperly.
So, before adding sound
equipment, check with your dealer
and be sure to check Federal rules
covering mobile
rA:o and
