Gain Control
Some models have this control below
the audio system.
To get more bass sound, move the
GAIN control to adjust the amount of
bass.
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). 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 also pick up noise from things like
storms and power lines. To lower this
noise, try reducing the treble level.
AM Stereo
Your Delco@ system may be able to
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@
signals, your stereo indicator light will
come on when you are receiving it.

Care of Your Cassette
Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned
regularly can cause reduced sound
quality, ruined cassettes, or a damaged
mechanism. Cassette tapes should be
stored in their cases away from
contaminants, direct sunlight, and
extreme heat. If they aren’t, they may
not operate properly or cause failure of
the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned
regularly each month or after every
15
hours of use. If you notice a reduction in
sound quality,
try a known good cassette
to see
if the tape or the tape player is at
fault. If this other cassette has no
improvement in sound quality, clean
the
tape player. Clean
your tape player with a wiping-
action, non-abrasive cleaning cassette,
and follow the directions provided
with it.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrade over time.
Always make sure that the cassette tape
is in good condition before you have
your tape player serviced.
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.
142
Power Antenna Mast Care
Your power antenna will look its best
and work well if it’s cleaned from time
to time.
To Clean the Antenna Mast:
1. Turn on the ignition and radio to
raise the antenna to
full mast
extension.
2. Dampen a clean cloth with mineral
spirits or equivalent solvent.
3. Wipe the cloth over the mast sections,
removing any dirt.
4. Wipe dry with a clean cloth before
retracting.
5. Make the antenna go up and down by
turning the radio or ignition on and off.
6. Then repeat if necessary. Don’t
lubricate the power antenna.
Lubrication could damage it.

Before entering an automatic car
wash, turn off your radio to make
the power antenna go down. This
will prevent the mast from possibly
getting damaged. If the antenna
does not go down when you turn
the radio off, it may be damaged or
need to be cleaned. In either case,
lower
the antenna by hand by
carefully pressing
the antenna
down.
If the mast portion of your antenna is
damaged, you can easily replace it. See
your dealer for a replacement lut, and
follow the instructions in the
kit.
