888-539-7474 to discuss options for channel blocking or
unblocking. Please have your ESN/SID information
available.
Storing and Selecting Pre-Set Channels
In addition to the 10 AM and 10 FM pre-set stations, you
may also commit 10 satellite stations to push button
memory. These satellite channel pre-set stations will not
erase any AM or FM pre-set memory stations. Follow the
memory pre-set procedures that apply to your radio.
Using the PTY (Program Type) Button (if
equipped)
Follow the PTY button instructions that apply to your
radio.
PTY Button(SCAN(
When the desired program type is obtained, press the
9SCAN9button within five seconds. The radio will play 7
seconds of the selected channel before moving to the next
channel of the selected program type. Press the9SCAN9
button a second time to stop the search.
NOTE:Pressing the9SEEK9or9SCAN9button while
performing a music type scan will change the channel byone and stop the search. Pressing a pre-set memory
button during a music type scan, will call up the memory
channel and stop the search.
PTY Button(SEEK(
When the desired program is obtained, press the9SEEK9
button within five seconds. The channel will change to
the next channel that matches the program type selected.
Satellite Antenna
To ensure optimum reception, do not place items on the
roof around the rooftop antenna location. Metal objects
placed within the line of sight of the antenna will cause
decreased performance. Larger luggage items should be
placed as far forward as possible. Do not place items
directly on or above the antenna.
Reception Quality
Satellite reception may be interrupted due to one of the
following reasons.
²The vehicle is parked in an underground parking
structure or under a physical obstacle.
²Dense tree coverage may interrupt reception in the
form of short audio mutes.

²Driving under wide bridges or along tall buildings can
cause intermittent reception.
²Placing objects over or too close to the antenna can
cause signal blockage.
CASSETTE TAPE AND PLAYER MAINTENANCE
To keep the cassette tapes and player in good condition,
take the following precautions:
1. Do not use cassette tapes longer than C-90; otherwise,
sound quality and tape durability will be greatly dimin-
ished.
2. Keep the cassette tape in its case to protect from
slackness and dust when it is not in use.
3. Keep the cassette tape away from direct sunlight, heat
and magnetic fields such as the radio speakers.
4. Before inserting a tape, make sure that the label is
adhering flatly to the cassette.
5. A loose tape should be corrected before use. To rewind
a loose tape, insert the eraser end of a pencil into the tape
drive gear and twist the pencil in the required directions.Maintain your cassette tape player. The head and capstan
shaft in the cassette player can pick up dirt or tape
deposits each time a cassette is played. The result of
deposits on the capstan shaft may cause the tape to wrap
around and become lodged in the tape transport. The
other adverse condition is low or ªmuddyº sound from
one or both channels, as if the treble tone control were
turned all the way down. To prevent this, you should
periodically clean the head with a commercially available
WET cleaning cassette.
As preventive maintenance, clean the head about every
30 hours of use. If you wait until the head becomes very
dirty (noticeably poor sound), it may not be possible to
remove all deposits with a simple WET cleaning cassette.

RADIO OPERATION AND CELLULAR PHONES
Under certain conditions, the operation of a cellular
phone in your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy perfor-
mance from your radio. This condition may be lessened
or eliminated by relocating the cellular phone antenna.
This condition is not harmful to the radio. If your radio
performance does not satisfactorily ªclearº by the repo-
sitioning of the antenna, it is recommended that the radio
volume be turned down or off during cellular phone
operation.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
Heater Only
The controls are as follows:
Fan Control
Use this control to regulate the
amount of air forced through the
system in any mode you select.
Turn the control clockwise to in-
crease fan speed. Turn the control
to the full counterclockwise posi-
tion to turn the fan off.
NOTE:There is always a small amount of air entering
the vehicle even when the fan is turned off. If this
becomes objectionable during cold weather, place the
mode control on FLOOR to direct the air flow away from
passengers.
Mode Control (Air Direction)
The mode control allows
you to choose from sev-
eral patterns of air distri-
bution. You can select ei-
ther a primary mode, as
identified by the sym-
bols, or a blend of two of
these modes. The center point between modes gives an
even blend of both modes. The closer the control is to a
particular mode, the more air distribution you receive
from that mode.
Panel
Air is directed through the adjustable outlets in
the instrument panel.
