Troubleshooting Poor Radio
ReceptionProblem:
Fading Signals / Interference /
Increased interference/ Static
FM Broadcasts - The further you move
away from the radio station's transmitting
source (normally within a city or town),
the weaker the signal will be. You might
experience abrupt breaks in transmis-
sion, garbled sound and also static even
though your radio remains tuned to the
same frequency.
AM Broadcasts - Even though AM radio
signals travel further and stronger than
FM radio signals, weather or terrain con-
ditions might adversely affect your radio's
ability to receive the signals.
Solution:
Use your audio system's Scan function to
automatically search for and select
another radio station with good signal
strength. Problem:
High-pitched static, distortion or a
'fluttering' sound (Multi-Path
Cancellation)
Radio stations transmitting on frequen-
cies that are very close to each other
may cause distortion or 'fluttering'. This
effect is known as Multi-Path
Cancellation. This normally occurs when
your tuner is receiving a station's trans-
mission as both direct and 'reflected'
radio signals or when your tuner receives
signals from more than 1 radio station
transmitting on frequencies that are very
close to each other.
Solution:
If the problem is caused by a temporary
deterioration in the signal strength of one
station's transmission, reduce the levels
of your audio system's Treble and Middle
settings to suppress the sound. If the
problem is caused by interference from
another station, select another radio sta-
tion with good and clear signal strength.
Problem:
Interference from another FM radio
broadcast ('station-swapping')
FM radio stations transmit on frequen-
cies that are very close to each other on
the FM band. When you travel further
and further away from a transmitting
source, the signal strength of that trans-
mission decreases. Your radio's ability to
'lock' on to that specific frequency is
affected. This is because your radio is
designed to lock on to the strongest sig-
nal it can detect. Therefore, another radio
station broadcasting on a frequency very
close to your original station could 'inter-
fere' with your reception and you might
start to hear the broadcast of the second
station. You will normally experience this
when you are moving away from a weak
signal and towards a stronger one.

Driving your vehicle24Illuminated ignition switch
(if equipped)Whenever a door is opened, the ignition
switch will be illuminated for your con-

WARNING
- Ignition key
• Never turn the ignition switch to
LOCK or ACC while the vehicle is
moving. This would result in loss
of directional control and braking
function, which could cause an
immediate accident.
Before leaving the driver’s seat, always make sure the shift lever
is engaged in 1
stgear for manual
transmission or P (Park) for auto-
matic transmission, set the park-
ing brake fully and shut the
engine off. Unexpected and sud-
den vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
taken.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Never reach for the ignitionswitch, or any other controls
through the steering wheel while
the vehicle is in motion. The pres-
ence of your hand or arm in this
area could cause a loss of vehicle
control, an accident and serious
bodily injury or death.
Do not place any movable objects around the driver’s seat as they
may move while driving, interfere
with the driver and lead to an
accident.

the shift lever in the D (Drive) position.
To move the shift lever from the P (Park)
position, the brake pedal must be
depressed and the lock release button
must be depressed.
For smooth operation, depress the brakepedal when shifting from N (Neutral) to a forward or reverse gear.
WARNING
- Automatic transmission
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever is

CAUTION
To avoid damage to your trans-
mission, do not accelerate theengine in R (Reverse) or any for-ward gear position with the brakes on.
When stopped on an upgrade, do not hold the vehicle stationarywith engine power. Use the serv-ice brake or the parking brake.
Do not shift from N (Neutral) or P (Park) into D (Drive), or R(Reverse) when the engine is above idle speed.

Driving your vehicle
Transmission rangesP (park)Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P. This position locks the
transmission and prevents the front
wheels from rotating.
R (reverse)Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.N (neutral)The wheels and transmission are not
locked. The vehicle will roll freely even on
the slightest incline unless the parking
brake or service brakes are applied.D (drive)This is the normal forward driving posi-
tion. The transmission will automatically
shift through a 4-gear sequence, provid-
ing the best fuel economy and power.
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or climbing grades, depress the
accelerator fully, at which time the trans-
mission will automatically downshift to
the next lower gear.
(Continued)
Before leaving the driver’s seat,always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (PARK) position. Set
the parking brake fully, shut the
engine off and take the key with
you. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if
you do not follow these precau-
tions in the order specified.
Never leave a child unattended in a vehicle.
WARNING
- Automatic
transmission
Shifting into P (Park) while thevehicle is in motion will cause the
drive wheels to lock which will
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle.
Do not use the P (Park) position in place of the parking brake.
Always make sure the shift lever
is latched in the P (Park) position
so that it cannot be moved unless
the lock release button is pushed
in, AND set the parking brake
fully.
(Continued)
CAUTION
The transmission may be damagedif you shift into P (Park) while thevehicle is in motion.
CAUTION
Always come to a complete stopbefore shifting into or out of R(Reverse); you may damage the transmission if you shift into Rwhile the vehicle is in motion.
