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
50 hours of use. Your radio may
display Cln to indicate
that you have used your tape
player for
50 hours without resetting the tape clean
timer.
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.
Cleaning may be done
with a scrubbing action,
non-abrasive cleaning cassette. This system uses a
cleaning cassette with pads which scrub
the tape head as
the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. It is normal for the
cartridge to eject
while cleaning. Insert the cassette at
least three times to ensure thorough cleaning.
A
scrubbing action cleaning cassette is available through
your Chevrolet/Geo dealership.
You may also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet type
cleaner which uses a cassette
with a fabric belt to clean
the tape head. This type
of cleaning cassette will not eject.
It may not
clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing
type cleaner.
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.
Antenna
Use the knob on the end of the antenna to raise the
antenna. To lower it, hold the antenna mast near the roof
and feed it into the holder.
Do not try to lower the
antenna using the knob. Keep the antenna mast clean for
good performance.
Always lower the antenna before entering a car wash. If
you have the convertible top, also lower the antenna
before removing
or installing the top.

3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Turn off all
lamps that aren’t needed, and radios. This will avoid
sparks and help save both batteries. And it could
save
your radio!
NOTICE:
If you leave your radio on, it could be badly
damaged. The repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
4.
Open the hoods and locate the batteries. Find the
positive
(+) and negative (-) terminals on each
battery.

Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken
or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a
new one of the correct size. If
you ever have a problem on the road and don’t have a
spare fuse, you can borrow one. Just pick some feature
of your vehicle that you can get along without -- like the
radio or cigarette lighter
-- and use its fuse, if it is the
size you need. Replace it as soon
as you can.
Before replacing
a fuse, turn every vehicle electrical
switch
off.
