stereo.  AMAX@  reduces  noise  without  reducing  the high  frequencies  you 
need  for the  best  sound.  In addition  to  improved  sound  quality,  AMAX’ 
includes  more  station  on  the AM  band.  You don’t  have  to  do anything  to 
your  radio  because 
AMAX@ is  automatic. 
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, 
although  some  do not.  (C-QUAM@  is a  registered  trademark 
of 
Motorola,  Inc.) If your  Delco@  system  can  get  C-QUAM@,  your  “ST” 
stereo  light 
will come on when  you’re  receiving it. 
Be  aware  that 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.

Your  Cassette  Tape Phyer 
Your  cassette  tape player  works  best  with  tapes  that  are 30 to 45 minutes 
long  on each  side.  Tapes  longer  than  that are 
so thin that they  may  not 
work  well  in  this  player. 
If  you  look  at  the tape,  or on  its  label  or box,  it  should  say whether  its  bias, 
“equalization”  is 
70 microseconds (70 p) or 120  microseconds  (120 p). 
Chrome  and  metal  tapes  are 70 p sec  and  standard  iron  tapes  are 120 p sec. 
Your  tape player  will adjust  automatically  for  either 
type of cassette  tape.
