Car audio/video system operating hints
NOTICE
To ensure correct audio/video system operation:
Be careful not to spill beverages over the system.
Do not put anything other than a cassette tape orCompact Disc into the slot.
Do not put anything other than a DVD video, DVDaudio, video CD, dts-CD and audio CD into the DVDplayer.
The use of a cellular phone inside or near the vehiclemay cause a noise from the speakers of the system
which you are listening to. However, this does notindicate a malfunction.
Radio reception
Usually, a problem with radio reception does not mean there is
a problem with your radio Ð it is just the normal result of
conditions outside the vehicle. For example, nearby buildings and terrain can interfere with
FM reception. Power lines or telephone wires can interfere
with AM signals. And of course, radio signals have a limited
range.
The farther you are from a station, the weaker its signal
will be. In addition, reception conditions change constantly as
your vehicle moves.
