HGK020
The FATC (Full Automatic Temperature Control) system automatically controls heating and cool- ing as follows:
1. Push the "AUTO" switch. The indicator light will come on confirming that the Face, Floor and/or Bi-Level modes as well as the blower speed and, air conditioner will be controlled automatically. 2. Push the "TEMP" button to set the desired
temperature. The temperature will increase to the maxi- mum 90°F(32°C) by pushing on the button. Each push of the button will cause the tem- perature to increase by 1°F(0.5°C). The temperature will decrease to the mini- mum 62°F(17°C) by pushing on the button. Each push of the button will cause the tem- perature to decrease by 1°F(0.5°C).

NOTE: Never place anything over the sensor which is located on the instrument panel to ensure better control of the heating and cooling system.
NOTE:If the battery has been discharged or discon- nected, the temperature mode will reset as centigrade degrees. This is a normal condition and you can change the temperature mode from centigrade to farenheit as follows; Press the TEMP button down 3 seconds or more with the button held down. The display shows that the unit of temperature is adjusted to contigrade or fahrenheit. (°C °F or °F °C)

With the "Recirculation" mode selected, and air from within the passenger compartment will be drawn through the heating system and heated or cooled according to the function selected. NOTE:
o It should be noted that prolonged opera-tion of the heating system in "recircula-tion" mode will give rise to fogging of the windscreen and side windows and the air within the passenger compartment will become stale. In addition, prolonged use of the air conditioning with the "Recircu- lation" mode selected may result in the air within the passenger compartment be- coming excessively dry.

mode (regardless of switch position). It is normal operation. The air intake control is operated in "AUTO" mode when turning the ignition to the ON position if the "AUTO" mode was used before shutting off the engine. Exhaust gas cutoff mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside. But if exhaust gas enters the vehicle from the outside, the exhaust gas cutoff mode ( ) is automa tically converted to the mode, to
prevent exhaust gas from entering the vehicle. NOTE:

AM receptionB750A02A-AAT STEREO SOUND SYSTEM How Car Audio Works
FM reception
SSAR010A
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. This signal is then received by the radio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reached your vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures high quality reproduction. How- ever, in some cases the signal coming to your vehicle is not strong and clear. This can be due to factors such as the distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of buildings, bridges or other large obstructions in the area. AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis- tances than FM broadcasts. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequency. These long, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth rather than travelling straight out into the atmosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal coverage.
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequency and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts generally begin to fade at short distances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, moun- tains, or other obstructions. These can result in certain listening conditions which might lead you to believe a problem exists with your radio. The following conditions are normal and do not indi- cate radio trouble:

SSAR014AB750B02Y-AAT Using a cellular phone or a two-way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equip- ment. This does not mean that something is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a case, use the cellular phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment. CAUTION: When using a communication system such a cellular phone or a radio set inside the vehi- cle, a separate external antenna must be fitted. When a cellular phone or a radio set is used by using an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehicle's electrical sys- tem and adversely affect safe operation of the vehicle. WARNING: Don't use a cellular phone when you are driving, you must stop at a safe place to use a cellular phone.SSAR013A
o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens,another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest signal. If this occurs, select another station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions can cause distortion or fluttering. This can be caused by a direct and reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from two stations with close frequencies. If this occurs, select an- other station until the condition has passed.
o Fading - As your car moves away from the
radio station, the signal will weaken and soundwill begin to fade. When this occurs, we suggest that you select another stronger sta- tion.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large
obstructions between the transmitter and your radio can disturb the signal causing static or fluttering noises to occur. Reducing the treble level may lessen this effect until the distur- bance clears.

JB580B1-A CARE OF DISC Proper Handling
YL11240B
Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc. Hold the disc so you will not leave fingerprints on the surface. If the surface is scratched, it may cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on the disc. Do not write on the disc. Damaged Disc Do not attempt to play damaged, warped or cracked discs. It could severely damage the playback mechanism. Storage When not in use, place your discs in their indi- vidual case and store them in a cool place away from the sun, heat, and dust.
Do not grip or pull out the disc with your handwhile the disc is being pulled into the unit by the Self Loading mechanism. Do not pull the unit from the dash immediately after a disc is inserted or the Eject Switch has been pressed. If the unit is pulled out before an operation is completed, the disc will be unstable in the unit and may be damaged. Do not attempt to insert a disc into the unit when the unit is out of the dash or the power is off.
FUA1250B
Keep Your Discs Clean Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface could cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Wipe the surface clean with a clean soft cloth. If the sur- face is heavily soiled, dampen a clean soft cloth in a solution of mild neutral detergent to wipe it clean. See drawing.
SR040B1-F Care of Cassette Tapes
SSAR040B
Proper care of your cassette tapes will extend the tape life and increase your listening enjoy- ment. Always protect your tapes and cassette cases from direct sunlight, severe cold and dusty conditions. When not in use, cassettes should always be stored in the protective cassette case in which they were originally supplied. When the vehicle is very hot or cold, allow the interior temperature to become more comfortable before listening to your cassettes.
o Never leave a cassette inserted in the player
when not being played. This could damage the tape player unit and the cassette tape.
o We strongly recommend against the use of
tapes longer than C-60 (60 minutes total). Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are very thin and do not perform as well in the automotive environment.
