Daytime running light system (Canada
only)ÐThe headlights turn on when the
parking brake is released with the engine
started, even with the light switch in the
OFFº position. They will not go off until
the ignition switch is turned off.
To turn on the other exterior lights and in-
strument
panel lights, twist the knob to the
first clickstop.
Under the daytime running light system,
the headlights turn on at reduced intensi-
ty. Twist the knob to the second clickstop to turn to full intensity for driving at night. FIRST CLICKSTOP: Only the parking,
tail, license plate, side marker and instru-
ment panel lights turn on.
SECOND CLICKSTOP: The headlights
also turn on.
The lights automatically turn off when the
driver's door is opened with the ignition
key turned off. To turn them on again, turn the key to the ONº position or actuate the
headlight switch. If you are going to park
for over one week, make sure the head-
light switch is off.NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the lights
on for a long period when the engine is not running.

For high beam, push the lever away from you. Pull it toward you for low
beam. For the headlight flasher, pull it
further back.
A blue light in the instrument panel indi-
cates high beam is on.
The headlight flasher works even when
the headlight switch is off.For signaling turns, move the lever up
or down in the conventional manner. The key must be in the ONº position.
The turn signal is self-cancelling after a
turn, but after a lane change, you may
have to cancel it by hand. You can also
signal a lane change by moving the turn
signal lever partway and holding it there.
If the green light in the instrument panel
flashes faster than normal, it indicates
that the front or rear turn signal bulb has burned out.To turn on the emergency flashers,
push the switch. All the turn signal lights will flash.
Turn on the emergency flashers to warn other drivers if your vehicle must be
stopped where it might be a traf fic hazard.
Always pull as far off the road as possible.
The turn signal light switch will not work
when the emergency flashers are operating.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the switch
on for a long period when the engine is not running.

Multipath: Because of the reflection
characteristics of FM, direct and re-
flected signals may reach the antenna
at the same time (a phenomenon
called multipath reception) and cancel
each other out. As a vehicle moves
through these electronic dead spots,
the listener may hear a momentary
flutter or lose reception.
Station swapping: When two FM
stations are close to each other, and
an electronic dead spot, such as is
caused by static or multipath recep-
tion, interrupts the original signal,
sometimes the stronger second si gnal
is picked up automatically until theoriginal one returns. This swapping
can also occur as you drive away from the selected station and approach
another station with a stronger signal.
On models with a power antenna, the an-
tenna automatically extends to its full
height when the radio and ignition are turned on.
To lower the power antenna, turn off the
audio system by pushing PWR VVOLº, or
turn the ignition key to LOCKº.
On some models, the power antenna au-
tomatically retracts when the radio mode
is switched off to turn on the cassette tape
player or compact disc player. Before extending the power antenna,
confirm
that no one is close enough to get
injured by it.
To prevent damage to the antenna,
make sure it is retracted before
running your vehicle through anautomatic car wash.
NOTICE
CASSETTE TAPE PLAYER
Use only undamaged cassette tapes of
good quality. Avoid using tapes with a
total playing time longer than 90 min-utes.
Using damaged tapes will cause trouble with the tape player. Longer tapes are not
recommended because of their thinness.
Before inserting a cassette, make sure
the tape is not slack and that the label
is firmly stuck on the shell.
Wind the tape firmly by turning the hub with a pencil or the like.
Be careful not to touch the exposed tape surface.
When not in use, take the cassette out
of the player, put it back into its case and store it away from dust, magnets
and direct sunlight.
Leaving cassettes on the dashboard in the sun could damage your tapes. Keep the playback head, capstan and pinch roller clean. Remove tape coating residue accumu- lated on the head, capstan and pinch
roll-
er once or twice a month. A cleaning tape is available on the market.
Do not oil any part of the player and
do not insert anything other than
cassette tapes into the slot, or thetape player may be damaged.

2. Turn the PWR VVOLº knob to adjust
the volume.
3. Tune in the desired station. (See (b)
Selecting a stationº and (c) Presetting astationº.)
The radio will change automatically to ste-
reo reception when an FM stereo broad-
cast is being received. At the same time,
STº will appear on the display. When the
receiving signal gets weak, the channel
separation will automatically be reduced
for the lowest noise. If the signal becomes
extremely weak, the radio will switch over
to monaural reception.
4. Adjust the tone and sound balance. (See (d) Adjusting the toneº and (e) Ad-
justing the sound balanceº.)
5. To turn the radio off, push the PWR VVOLº knob. (b) Selecting a station
Tune in the desired station using one of
the following methods. The frequency will
appear on the display.
Preset tuning:
Use for tuning-in to a de-
sired preset station. (See (c) Presetting a stationº.) Push the station selector button which has been preset to the desired station.
The radio will tune in to the station and the
button number will appear on the display.
Seek tuning: Use for automatic station
search and stop. Push the TUNE SEEK (REW FF)º button
on either side and hold it until a beep is heard. The radio will begin seeking up or
down for a station of the nearest frequen-
cy and will stop on reception. Each time
you push the button, stations will be
sought out one after another.
If the radio cannot seek out any stations
in one pass because of too weak signals,
the radio will begin seeking again with
sensitivity boosted for searching out weak
stations. At this time, DXº will appear on
the display. Manual tuning Push
the TUNE SEEK (REW FF)º button
on either side for less than 0.5 second.

station and one FM station. To change the preset station to a dif ferent one, follow the
same procedure.
The preset station will be cancelled when
the power source is severed (battery dis- connected, burnt fuse, etc.). (d) Adjusting the tone
To adjust a low-pitched tone, push the
BASS TREBº knob (if pushed in) and turn
it.
