Optional AWM Stereo ‘Radios
Your Oldsmobile may have a radio with a cassette tape
player, a compact disc player or both. To play the radio,
follow the instructions earlier in this manual under

following instructions for the feature your radio has.
If your radio has a cassette tape player or a compact disc
player,
it will also have automatic tone control:

and bass equalization settings designed for jazz, vocal,
pop, rock and classical stations. JAZZ will appear on the
display when you first pre.ss TONE. Each‘time.
you press
it, another setting will appearon the display. Press it
again after CLASSIC appears, and MANUAL will
appear. Tone control will return to the treble and bass
knobs. Also, if you use the treble and bass knobs,
control will return to them and MANUAL will appear.
You can set an equalization setting with each preset
station. After you tune in the station, press TONE
to
choose the equalization setting for the station.’ Then
press and bold the numbered preset button.

2. Get the vehicles close enougn so the jumper cables
can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching
each other. If they are, it could cause a ground
connection you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to
start your Oldsmobile, and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.
You could be injured if the vehicles roll. Set the
parking brake firmly on each vehicle. Put
an
automatic transaxle in PARK (P) or a manual
transaxle in
NEUTRAL (N).
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.
5. Find the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals
on each battery. Your Oldsmobile has a remote
positive
(+) jump starting terminal. The terminal is
on the same side
of the engine compartment as your
battery. You should always use the remote
positive
(+) terminal instead of the positive (+)
terminal on your battery. To uncover the remote .
positive (+) termihal, lift the red plastic cap.
