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). And, 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 pick
up noise from things like storms and
power lines. Try reducing the treble to
reduce this noise if you ever get 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine According to the American Medical
Association, a 180-pound (82 kg) person
who drinks three 12-ounce (355 ml)
bottles
of beer in an hour will end up with
a BAC of about
0.06 percent. The person
would reach the same BAC by drinking
three 4-ounce (1 20
ml) glasses of wine or
three mixed drinks if each had 1
- 1/2
ounces (45 ml) of a liquor like whiskey,
gin or vodka.
It’s the amount of alcohol that counts. For
example, if
the same person drank three
double martinis (3 ounces or
90 ml of
liquor each) within
an hour, the person’s
BAC would be close to 0.12 percent. A
person who consumes food just before or
during drinking will have
a slightly lower
BAC level.

The law in most U.S. states sets the legal
limit at a BAC of 0.10 percent.
In Canada
the limit is
0.08 percent, and in some
other countries it’s lower than that. The
BAC will be over
0.10 percent after three
to six drinks (in one hour). Of course, as
we’ve seen, it depends on how much
alcohol is in the drinks, and how quickly
the person drinks them.
.,. c. .-’ .t
But it’s very important to keep in mind
that the ability to drive is affected well
below a BAC of 0.10 percent. Research
shows that the driving skills
of many
people ai-e impaired at a BAC
approaching
0.05 percent, and that the
effects are worse at night. All drivers are
impaired at BAC levels above
0.05
percent. Statistics show that the chance of
being in an accident increases sharply for
drivers who have a BAC of
0.05 percent
or above. A driver with a BAC level of
0.06 percent (three beers in one hour for a
180-pound or 82 kg person) has doubled
his or her chance of having an accident.
At a BAC level of 0.10 percent, the
chance of that driver having an accident is
six times greater; at a level of
0.15.
percent, the chances are twenty-five times
greater! And, the body takes about an
hour to rid itself
of the alcohol in :one
drink.
No amount of coffee or number of
cold showers will speed that
up.
“I’ll be careful” isn’t the right answer.
What if there’s
an emergency, a need to
take sudden action, as when a child darts
into the street? A person with a higher
BAC might not be able to react quickly
enough to avoid the collision.
