B750A02A-AATSTEREO SOUND SYSTEM
How Car Audio Works
AM broadcasts can be received at greater
distances than FM broadcasts. This is because
AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequen-
cies. 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. 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.
However, in some cases the signal coming to
your vehicle may not be 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.FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen-
cies and do not bend to follow the earth's
surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts gen-
erally begin to fade at short distances from the
station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by
buildings, mountains, 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 indicate radio trouble:

level before your hearing adapts to it.
To help avoid hearing loss or damage do the
following:

o Be sure that the cassette label is not loose
or peeling off or tape ejection may be difficult.
o Never touch or soil the actual audio tape
surfaces.
o Keep all magnetized objects, such as elec-
tric motors, speakers or transformers away
from your cassette tapes and tape player
unit.
o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place with the
open side facing down to prevent dust from
settling in the cassette body.
o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to replay
one given tune or tape section. This can
cause poor tape winding to occur, and even-
tually cause excessive internal drag and
poor audio quality in the cassette. If this
occurs, it can sometimes be corrected by
fast winding the tape from end to end several
times. If this does not correct the problem,
do not continue to use the tape in your
vehicle.NOTE:Look at a tape before you insert it. If the tape
is loose, tighten it by turning one of the
hubs with a pencil or your finger. If the label
is peeling off, do not put it in the drive
mechanism.
Do not leave tapes sitting where they are
exposed to hot, warm, or high humidity,
such as on top of the dashboard or in the
player. If a tape is excessively hot or cold, let
it reach a moderate temperature before
putting it in the player.

o The playback head, capstan and pinch roll-
ers will develop a coating of tape residue that
can result in deterioration of sound quality,
such as a wavering sound. They should be
cleaned monthly using a commercially avail-
able head cleaning tape or special solution
available from audio specialty shops. Follow
the supplier's directions carefully and never
oil any part of the tape player unit.
o Always be sure that the tape is tightly wound
on its reel before inserting in the player.
Rotate a pencil in the drive sprockets to wind
up any slack.
