using the slots supplied in the magazine.
You must first load the magazine with discs before you
can play a compact disc. Load the CDs from bottom to
top, placing a disc in the magazine label side up. If you
load a disc label side down, the disc will not play and an

of the compact disc (CD) changer. Push
the magazine into the changer in the direction of the
arrow marked on top of the magazine.
Close the door
by sliding it all the way forward.

continue
for up to one minute, depending on the
number of discs loaded.
To eject the magazine from the player, slide the
CD changer door all the way open, then press the
eject button. Remember to keep the door closed

Radio Personalization (If Equipped)
If DRIVER 1 (HOME or AWAY) PRESETS or
DRIVER
2 (HOME or AWAY) PRESETS appears in the
display when the radio is first turned on, your vehicle is
equipped with this feature.
With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest radio
settings as adjusted the last time your vehicle was
operated. This feature allows two different drivers to
store and recall their own radio settings. The settings
recalled by the radio are determined by which RKE
transmitter
(“1” or “2”) was used to enter the vehicle.
The number on the back of the RKE transmitter
corresponds to driver
1 or to driver 2. The radio settings
will automatically adjust to where they were last set
by
the identified driver. The settings can also be recalled by
briefly pressing the MEMORY seat buttons
1 or 2
located on the driver’s door.
Your radio can store home and away presets. Home and away presets allow you to use one set of preset
radio settings in the area where you live, and another set when you go
out of town. That way, you will not
need to reprogram your presets every time you travel.

your away radio presets.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK@ is designed to discourage theft of your
radio. Your vehicle has
a “built-in” theft-deterrent
feature on each radio that is automatic
-- there is no
programming required. The radio in your vehicle
cannot be used in any other vehicle. When the radio was originally installed in your vehicle at the factory, it
stored the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Each
time the ignition
is turned on, the VIN is verified. If the
vehicle’s VIN does not match the VIN stored in the
radio, THEFTLOCK will be activated and the audio system will not play. If the radio is removed from your
vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to
trace the radio back to your vehicle.
Audio Steering Wheel Controls
Some audio controls can
be adjusted at the steering
wheel. They include the
following:
VOL: Press the up arrow
button to increase volume and the down arrow button
to decrease volume.
SEL: When listening to the radio, press the up or down
arrow button to tune to the next or previous preset radio
station. When listening to a cassette tape, the up or down
arrow button can be used to
SEEK forward and rearward
through the tape. Pressing the up or down arrow button
when listening to
a CD will cause the player to go to the
next or previous selection. When in Radio Data Systems
(RDS) Program Type
(PTY) mode, the up or down
arrow button can be used to perform a
PTY preset seek.
PSEEK will appear on the display while the FTY preset seek is performed. The radio will seek all
of the PTYs
stored in presets, except for the PTY Any.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Understanding Radio Reception
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.
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.
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
0- like a tape player, CB radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
-0 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, radio or other systems, and
even damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may
also 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 may cause failure
of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned regularly after
every 50 hours of use. Your radio may display CLEAN
TAPE to indicate that you have used your tape player
for
50 hours without resetting the tape clean timer. If
this message appears on the display, your cassette tape
player needs to be cleaned. It will still play tapes, but
you should clean it as soon as possible to prevent
damage to your tapes and player.
If you notice a
reduction in sound quality,
try a known good cassette
to see if it is the tape or the tape player at fault. If this
other cassette has no improvement in sound quality,
clean the tape player.
The recommended cleaning method for your cassette
tape player is the use
of a scrubbing action,
non-abrasive cleaning cassette with pads which scrub
the tape head as the hubs
of the cleaner cassette turn.
The recommended cleaning cassette
is available through
your dealership
(GM Part No. 12344789). When using
a scrubbing action, non-abrasive cleaning
cassette, it is normal for the cassette to eject because
your unit
is equipped with a cut tape detection feature
and a cleaning cassette may appear as a broken tape.
To
prevent the cleaning cassette from being ejected, use the
following steps.
1. Turn the ignition to ON or ACCESSORY.
2. Turn the radio
off.
3. Press and hold the SOURCE button for two
seconds. The tape symbol on the display will
flash three times.
4. Turn the radio on and insert the scrubbing action
cleaning cassette.
5. Eject the cleaning cassette after the manufacturer’s
recommended cleaning time.
When the cleaning cassette has been ejected, the cut tape
detection feature is active again.
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 on its own. A non-scrubbing action cleaner may
not clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing type cleaner.
The use of a non-scrubbing action, dry-type cleaning
cassette is not recommended.
