Station Swapping - As a FM signalweakens, another more powerful sig-
nal near the same frequency may
begin to play. This is because your
radio is designed to lock onto the
clearest signal. If this occurs, select
another station with a stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions
can cause distortion or fluttering. This
can be caused by a direct and reflect-
ed signal from the same station, or by
signals from two stations with close
frequencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition has
passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-wayradio When a cellular phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio equipment. This does not mean
that something is wrong with the audio
equipment. In such a case, use the cellu-
lar phone at a place as far as possible
from the audio equipment.
Care of cassette tapes
(if equipped) Because the thickness of a cassette tape with the total playback time of
over 60 minutes (C-60) are too thin, we
suggest that you do not use any of
them to avoid having tapes being tan-
gled.
To achieve better sound quality, period- ically clean the tape head using a cot-
ton stick with colorless alcohol (once
per month).
If a tape is too loose, fasten it to reel by winding with objects like a pencil.
Because dust or foreign objects on a cassette tape may damage the play-
back head, always store tapes in their
cases when not in use.
Make sure cassette tapes are kept away from magnetic devices (TV,
stereo system, etc) in order to achieve
better sound quality.
Be certain that no objects or sub- stances other than cassette tapes are
inserted into the cassette tape player.
Because tape media can be distorted when exposed to direct sunlight, Do
not leave cassette tapes on the seats,
dashboard or near the back wind-
shield.

you are driving. You should stop at
a safe place to use a cellular phone.

er who has been drinking or taking
