Cleaning cassette player (if equipped)
Clean the tape player head with a cassette cleaning
cartridge after ten to twelve hours of play in order
to maintain the best sound and operation.
Cassette and cassette player care
²Use only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or
less.
²Do not expose tapes to direct sunlight, high
humidity, extreme heat or extreme cold. Allow
tapes that may have been exposed to extreme
temperatures to reach a moderate temperature
before playing.
²Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or
pencil into the hole and turning the hub.
²Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.
²Do not leave tapes in the cassette player for a
long time when not being played.
Radio frequency information
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Communications (CRTC) establish the frequencies
AM and FM stations may use for their broadcasts.
Allowable frequencies are:
AM 530, 540±1600, 1610 kHz
FM 87.9, 88.1±107.1, 107.9 MHz
Not all frequencies are used in a given area.
Radio reception factors
Three factors can affect radio reception:
²Distance/strength.The further an FM signal
travels, the weaker it is. The listenable range of
the average FM station is approximately 40 km
(24 miles). This range can be affected by ªsignal
modulation.º Signal modulation is a process radio
stations use to increase their strength/volume
relative to other stations.
Controls and features
42

²Terrain.Hills, mountains and tall buildings
between your vehicle's antenna and the radio
station signal can cause FM reception problems.
Static can be caused on AM stations by power
lines, electric fences, traffic lights and
thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering
structure (out of its ªshadowº) returns your
reception to normal.
²Station overload.Weak signals are sometimes
captured by stronger signals when you pass a
broadcast tower. A stronger signal may
temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play
while the weak station frequency is displayed.
The audio system automatically switches to single
channel reception if it will improve the reception of
a station normally received in stereo.
Audio system warranties and service
Refer to the ªWarranty Guideº for audio system
warranty information.
If service is necessary, see your dealer or a qualified
technician.
TURN SIGNAL CONTROL
²Push down to
activate the left turn
signal.
²Push up to activate
the right turn signal.
WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER CONTROLS
Rotate the windshield
wiper control to the
desired interval, low or
high speed position.

If the vehicle's powertrain system or its battery has
just been serviced, the OBD-II system is reset to a
ªnot ready for I/M testº condition. To ready the
OBD-II system for I/M testing, a minimum of
30 minutes of city and highway driving is necessary
as described below:
²First, at least 10 minutes of driving on an
expressway or highway.
²Next, at least 20 minutes driving in stop-and-go,
city-type traffic with at least four idle periods.
Allow the vehicle to sit for at least eight hours
without starting the engine. Then, start the engine
and complete the above driving cycle. The engine
must warm up to its normal operating temperature.
Once started, do not turn off the engine until the
above driving cycle is complete.
EXTERIOR BULBS
Replacing exterior bulbs
Check the operation of the following lamps
frequently:
²Headlamps
²Tail lamps
²Brakelamps
²High-mount brakelamp
²Turn signals
²Backup lamps
²License plate lamp
Do not remove lamp bulbs unless they will be
replaced immediately. If a bulb is removed for an
extended period of time, contaminants may enter
the lamp housings and affect performance.
Maintenance and care
165

To install the new bulb:
1. With the flat side of
the new bulb's plastic
base facing upward,
insert the glass end of
the bulb into the lamp
assembly. You may
need to turn the bulb left or right to align the
grooves in the plastic base with the tabs in the lamp
assembly. When the grooves are aligned, push the
bulb into the lamp assembly until the plastic base
contacts the rear of the lamp assembly.
2. Install the bulb retaining ring over the plastic base
until it contacts the rear of the socket by rotating
clockwise until you feel a ªstop.º
3. Connect the electrical connector into the plastic
base until it snaps, locking it into position.
4. Install the headlamp on vehicle by aligning the
lamp with the rear snap retainer, push to seat and
secure with two retainer pins.
5. Turn the headlamps on and make sure they work
properly. If the headlamp was correctly aligned
before you changed the bulb, you should not need to
align it again.
Replacing front parking lamp/turn signal bulbs
1. Make sure the headlamp control is in the OFF
position.
2. Open the hood.
3. At the back of the
headlamp, pull two
retainer pins up to
release the headlamp
assembly.
4. Pull headlamp
assembly forward
disengaging the lamp
from the rear snap retainer to expose the back of
the bulb.

AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
The alignment of your headlamps should be checked
if:
²Oncoming motorists frequently signal you to
deactivate your high beams, and your high beams
are not activated.
²The headlamps do not seem to provide enough
light for clear night vision.
²The headlamp beams are pointed substantially
away from a slightly down and to the right
position.
