Audio System(s)
Notice: Before you add any sound equipment to
your vehicle
- like a tape player, CB radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
- 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,
Delphi Electronics radio or other systems, and
even damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may 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.
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily
and to give years of listening pleasure. You will get
the most enjoyment out of
it if you acquaint yourself with
it first. Find out what your audio system can do and
how to operate all
of its controls to be sure you’re getting
the most out of the advanced engineering that went
into it. Your
vehicle may have a feature called Retained
Accessory Power (RAP). With RAP, you can play your
audio system even after the ignition is turned
off.
See “Retained Accessory Power (RAP)” under Ignition
Positions on page 2- 18.
Setting the Time
Press and hold the HR button until the correct hour
appears
on the display. Press and hold the MN button
until the correct minute appears on the display. The time
may be set with the ignition on or

To synchronize the time with an FM station broadcasting
Radio Data System (RDS) information, press and
hold the hour and minute buttons at the same time until
RDS TIME appears
on the display. To accept this
time, press and hold the hour and minute buttons, at the
same time, for another
2 seconds. If the time is not
available from the station,
NO UPDAT will appear on the
display instead.
RDS time is broadcast once a minute. Once you have
tuned to an RDS broadcast station,
it may take a
few minutes for your time
to update.

Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
up
to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes
longer than that are
so thin they may not work well in

face
to the right. If the ignition is on, but the radio is
off, the tape can be inserted and will begin playing. A
tape symbol is shown on the display whenever a tape is
inserted. If you hear nothing but a garbled sound, the
tape may not be in squarely. Press the eject symbol
to
remove the tape and start over.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, AUDIO and
SEEK controls just as you
