AUDIO SYSTEMS 9F – 11
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
STEREO CASSETTE AM/FM RADIO
There are three audio systems offered. The stereo digital
logic cassette AM/FM radio with electronic tape ejection
is offered in standard and deluxe models. Both models
feature RDS (radio data system) which automatically se-
lects the best station within the chain of RDS stations cur-
rently being listened to. A trunk mounted CD changer is
also available.
AUDIO SCURITY SYSTEM
The audio security system is activated whenever the audio
system circuit is disconnected from the battery. A four–
digit security code must be entered in order for the audio
system to resume functioning. The security code is
stamped on a card located in the vehicle (usually in the
glove box). The following security code entering proce-
dure must be used to deactivate the audio security sys-
tem:
1. After connecting the audio security system to the
battery, ”CODE” will flash on the display.
2. Enter the proper security number into the unit, us-
ing the preset buttons No. 1 through 8.
3. For example, if the security number is ”1234”:
a. Press the preset button No. 1. ”CODE” will
disappear and ”1 – – – ” will appear on the dis-
play.
b. Press the preset button No. 2, and ”12 – – ”
will appear.
c. Press the preset button No. 3, and ”123– ” will
appear.
d. Press the preset button No. 4, and ”1234” will
appear and flash three times.4. The audio system will function and will transfer to
the radio.
If the incorrect security number is entered into the unit,
”Err” will appear followed by ”CODE” and there will be sev-
eral audible beeps. If this happens, repeat the security en-
tering procedure beginning with Step 2.
SPEAKERS
All audio systems use eight speakers, four speakers and
four tweeters mounted in each door.
TAPE PLAYER AND CASSETTE
CARE
The head and the capstan are the two parts of the tape
player that should be cleaned. This service should be per-
formed every 100 hours of cassette operation.
To clean the head and the capstan, use a cotton swab
dipped in rubbing alcohol.
A cassette cleaning kit may also be used to clean the head
and the capstan. Follow the cleaning kit instructions to
clean the tape player.
Do not touch the tape head with magnetized tools. If the
head becomes magnetized, it will degrade cassettes
played in the player. No service is performed on the cas-
settes. The cassette manufacturer handles warranties of
the cassettes. Store cassettes away from extreme heat
and direct sunlight.
COMPACT DISC CARE
Handle discs carefully. Store the discs in protective cases
away from the sun, heat, and dust. If the surface is soiled,
dampen a clean, soft cloth in a solution of mild neutral de-
tergent and wipe the disc clean.

CAUTION : Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a tool
or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable will help

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
INTERIOR TRIM PANELS
The interior trim panels are molded plastic and fasten with
screws or plastic clips.
PRESSURE RELIEF VENT
When all the windows are closed and the ventilation sys-
tem is on, the addition of outside air to the interior of the
vehicle causes a positive pressure within the vehicle. To
relieve the pressure, air is released through a pressure re-
lief vent. The pressure relief vents are located at the rear
quarter of the vehicle, behind the bumper fascia.
FLOOR CONSOLE
The floor console fits over the tunnel in the floor of the ve-
hicle and extends from under the center of the instrument
panel to the rear seat area. The front portion of the consolecontains the cigar lighter and the transaxle shift lever. The
rear portion of the console contains the parking brake le-
ver, a cupholder, a storage compartment, and an ashtray
for the rear seat occupants.
The sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) for the airbag
system and the remote keyless entry module are located
under the console.
FLOOR CARPET
The one–piece floor carpet goes over both the front and
the rear floor pans.
REAR COMPARTMENT SECURITY
COVER (HATCHBACK)
A rear compartment security cover is provided on the
hatchback model. The security cover is attached to the
hatch and can be easily removed if more cargo space is
needed.
