To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave
the car audio on longer than necessary when the engine
is not running.
To ensure the correct audio system operation:
Be careful not to spill beverages over the audio system.
Do no put anything other than a cassette tape or CD
magazine into the cassette tape slot or CD changer.
The use of cellular phone inside or near the vehicle
may cause a noise from the speakers of the audio
system which you are listening to. However, this does
not indicate a malfunction.
You can listen to the car audio when the ignition key is at
ºONº or ºACCº. However, if the engine is not running,
the key must be in the ºACCº position.
You can adjust the brightness of the display. See ºInstrument
panel light control on page 64 for details.
Audio operation is described in detail on the following pages:
Radio operation ± See page 187.
Cassette tape player operation ± See page 192.
