o When using a portable fuel con-
tainer be sure to place the con-tainer on the ground whilst refuel- ing. Static electricity discharge from the container can ignite fuelvapors causing a fire. Whilst start- ing refueling contact should be maintained until the filling is com-plete. o Do not use cellular phones around
a gas station. The electric currentor electronic interference from cellular phones can ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.

B740D01A-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot whenyou first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air condition-
ing system, keep all windows closedto keep hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy
traffic, shift to a lower gear. Thisincreases engine speed, which in turn increases the speed of the air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condi- tioning off to avoid the possibility ofthe engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not usedregularly, run the air conditioning onceevery month for a few minutes. This will help circulate the lubricants and keep your system in peak operatingcondition.

B750A02A-AAT How Car Audio Works AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by theradio 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 qualityreproduction. However, in some cases the signal coming to your vehicle is not strong and clear. This can be dueto factors such as the distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of build-ings, bridges and other large obstruc- tions in the area.STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
