FM
Fading and drifting stations— General-
ly, the effective range of FM is about 40 km
(25 miles). Once outside this range, you
may notice fading and drifting, which in-
crease with the distance from the radio
transmitter. They are often accompanied
by distortion.
Multi −path — FM signals are reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time. If this hap-
pens, the signals will cancel each other
out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of
reception.
Static and fluttering — These occur
when signals are blocked by buildings,
trees, or other large objects. Increasing
the bass level may reduce static and flut-
tering.
Station swapping — If the FM signal you
are listening to is interrupted or weakened,
and there is another strong station nearby
on the FM band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original signal can
be picked up again.
AM
Fading — AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere — especially at
night. These reflected signals can inter-
fere with those received directly from the
radio station, causing the radio station to
sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference — When a reflected
signal and a signal received directly from
a radio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
Static — AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static. CARING FOR YOUR CASSETTE TAPE
PLAYER AND TAPES
For high performance from your cassette
tape player and tapes:
Clean the tape head and other parts regu-
larly.
DA dirty tape head or tape path can de-
crease sound quality and tangle your
cassette tapes. The easiest way to
clean them is by using a cleaning tape.
(A wet type is recommended.)
Use high −quality cassettes:
DLow− quality cassette tapes can cause
many problems, including poor sound,
inconsistent playing speed, and
constant auto −reversing. They can
also get stuck or tangled in the cassette
tape player.
DDo not use a cassette if it has been
damaged or tangled or if its label is
peeling off.
DDo not leave a cassette in the player if
you are not listening to it, especially if
it is hot outside.
DStore cassettes in their cases and out
of direct sunlight.
DAvoid using cassettes with a total play-
ing time longer than 100 minutes (50
minutes per side). The tape used in
these cassettes is thin and could get
stuck or tangled in the cassette tape
player.

CD−R AND CD −RW DISCS
DCD− R/CD− RW discs that have not
been subject to the “finalizing process”
(a process that allows discs to be
played on a conventional CD player)
cannot be played.
DIt may not be possible to play CD −
R/CD− RW discs recorded on a music
CD recorder or a personal computer
because of disc characteristics,
scratches or dirt on the disc, or dirt,
condensation, etc. on the lens of the
unit.
DIt may not be possible to play discs re-
corded on a personal computer de-
pending on the application settings and
the environment. Record with the cor-
rect format. (For details, contact the
appropriate application manufacturers
of the applications.)
DCD− R/CD− RW discs may be damaged
by direct exposure to sunlight, high
temperatures or other storage condi-
tions. The unit may be unable to play
some damaged discs.
DIf you insert a CD −RW disc into the
MP3/WMA player, playback will begin
more slowly than with a conventional
CD or CD −R disc.
DRecordings on CD −R/CD− RW cannot
be played using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system. CARING FOR YOUR DVD CHANGER,
DVD PLAYER AND DISCS
DYour DVD changer is intended for use
with 12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.
DExtremely high temperature can keep
your DVD changer and DVD player
from working. On hot days, use air
conditioning to cool the vehicle interior
before you listen to a disc.
DBumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your DVD changer and DVD
player skip.
DIf moisture gets into your CD changer,
DVD changer and DVD player, you
may not hear any sound even though
your DVD changer and DVD player ap-
pears to be working. Remove the discs
from the DVD changer and DVD player
and wait until it dries.
CAUTION
DVD changer and DVD player use an
invisible laser beam which could
cause hazardous radiation exposure
if directed outside the unit. Be sure to
operate the changer and player
correctly.

"Correct "Wrong
DHandle discs carefully, especially
when you are inserting them. Hold
them on the edge and do not bend
them. Avoid getting fingerprints on
them, particularly on the shiny side.
DDirt, scratches, warping, pin holes, or
other disc damage could cause the
changer to skip or to repeat a section of
a track. (To see a pin hole, hold the disc
up to the light.)
DRemove discs from the changer when
you are not using them. Store them in
their plastic cases away from moisture,
heat, and direct sunlight.
To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint −
free cloth that has been dampened with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the cen-
ter to the edge of the disc (not in a circle).
Do not use a conventional record cleaner
or anti −static device.
