Tips on Caring for the Cassette Player and Tapes
*
[AS27700(ALL)02/95]
In order to keep your cassette tape player performing the way it
was meant to, read and follow these simple precautions:
*
[AS27750(ALL)02/95]
n
Using a Ford Cassette Cleaning Cartridge to clean the tape
player head after 10-12 hours of play will help maintain the
best playback sound and proper tape operation.
*
[AS27800(ALL)02/95]
n
Only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less should be
used. Tapes longer than 90 minutes are thinner and subject
to breakage or may jam the tape player mechanism.
*
[AS27900(ALL)02/95]
n
Protect cassettes from exposure to direct sunlight, high
humidity and extreme heat or cold. If they are exposed to
extreme conditions, allow them to reach a moderate
temperature before playing.
*
[AS28001(ALL)02/95]
n
If a tape is loose inside the cassette, tighten it before playing
by putting your finger or a pencil into one of the holes and
turning the hub until the tape is tight.
*
[AS28101(ALL)02/95]
n
Loose labels on cassette tapes can become lodged in the
mechanism. Remove any loose label material before inserting
a cassette.

Do not leave a tape in the cassette tape player when not in
use. High heat in the vehicle can cause the cassette to warp.

[AS35200(ALL)06/95]
Common Radio Reception Conditions
*
[AS35300(ALL)02/95]
Several conditions prevent FM reception from being completely
clear and noise-free, such as the following:
*
[AS35400(ALL)04/95]1.
Distance/Strength
*
[AS35500(ALL)02/95]
The strength of the FM signal is directly related to the distance
the signal must travel. The listenable range of an average FM
signal is approximately 25 miles (40 kilometers). Beyond this
distance, the radio is operating in a fringe area and the signal
becomes weaker.
*
[AS35600(ALL)04/95]2.
Terrain
*
[AS35700(ALL)02/95]
The terrain (hilly, mountainous, tall buildings) of the area over
which the signal travels may prevent the FM signal from being
noise-free.
*
[AS36850(ALL)04/95]3.
Rounded off frequencies
*
[AS36900(ALL)02/95]
Some FM radio stations advertise a ªrounded-offº frequency
which is not the frequency they actually broadcast on. For
example, a radio station that is assigned a frequency of 98.7
MHz may call itself ªRadio 99º even though 99.0 MHz is not an
allowable FM broadcast frequency.
