Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 pick 
up  noise from things like storms and power lines.  Try 
reducing the treble to reduce this noise  if  you ever  get  it, 
Tips  About  Your  Audio System 
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. 
NOTICE: 
Before  you  add any  sound  equipment to your 
vehicle 
-- like a tape  player, CB radio,  mobile 
telephone  or two-way  radio 
-- be sure  you  can  add 
what  you  want. 
If’ you  can, it’s very  important  to 
do it properly.  Added  sound  equipment  may 
interfere  with the operation  of your  vehicle’s 
engine,  Delco  radio or other  systems,  and  even 
damage  them.  Your  vehicle’s  systems  may 
interfere  with the operation  of sound  equipment 
that  has  been  added  improperly. 
So, before adding  sound  equipment,  check  with 
your  dealer  and  be sure  to  check  Federal rules 
covering  mobile radio  and  telephone  units.
