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
ltnown 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.

Comfort Controls & Audio Systems
Care of Your Cassette Tape
Player
(CONT.)
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.
