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.
Multipath — 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.
A 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:
Low−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.
Do not use a cassette if it has been
damaged or tangled or if its label is
peeling off.
Do not leave a cassette in the player if
you are not listening to it, especially if
it is hot outside.
Store cassettes in their cases and out
of direct sunlight.
Avoid 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.

CDR AND CDRW DISCS
CD−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.
It 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.
It 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.)
CD−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.
If 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.
Recordings on CD−R/CD−RW cannot
be played using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system.CARING FOR YOUR DVD CHANGER,
DVD PLAYER AND DISCS
Your DVD changer is intended for use
with 12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.
Extremely 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.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your DVD changer and DVD
player skip.
If 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.

Labeled discs
NOTICE
Do not use special shaped, trans-
parent/translucent, low quality or
labeled discs such as those shown
in the illustrations. The use of such
discs may damage the player or
changer, or it may be impossible to
eject the disc.
This system is not designed for use
of Dual Disc. Do not use Dual Disc
because it may cause damage to
the player or changer.
Correct Wrong
Handle 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.
Dirt, 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.)
Remove discs from the changer when
you are not using them. Store them in
their plastic cases away from moisture,
heat, and direct sunlight.

AIR CONDITIONING
246
The automatic air conditioning auto-
matically maintains the set tempera-
ture.
In the automatic operation mode, the air
conditioning selects the most suitable fan
speed, air flow, air intake and on−off the air
conditioning according to the temperature.
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch must
be in the IGNITION ON mode.
“CLIMATE”: Push this button to display
touch−screen buttons for automatic air
conditioning controls.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being dis-
charged, do not leave the air condi-
tioning on longer than necessary
when the engine is not running.

Air flow quantity, switching of the diffusers,
on−off of the air conditioning and switching
of the air intake between RECIRCULATED
AIR and OUTSIDE AIR are automatically
adjusted. When you push the “AUTO”
button with the air intake mode at OUT-
SIDE AIR, internal circulation may be ap-
plied for maximum cooling. The operation
status is shown by each indicator and dis-
play.
When one of the manual control buttons is
depressed while operating in automatic

If manual air flow selection is desired —
The outlets from which air is delivered can
be selected manually by touching the
touch−screen button. The function of each
mode is as follows:
1
Panel — Air flows mainly from the
instrument panel vents and rear
vents.
2
Bilevel — Air flows from both the
floor vents, instrument panel vents
and rear vents.
When you set the temperature selec-
tor setting at about the middle in auto-
matic operation, warm air flows out of
the floor vents and relatively low−
temperature air flows out of the in-
strument panel vents and rear vents.
3
Floor — Air flows mainly from the
floor vents and rear vents.
4
Floor/windshield — Air flows mainly
from the floor vents, windshield vents
and rear vents.
The selected mode is highlighted.

The fan speed can be set to your desired
speed by touching the appropriate fan
speed control button.
The higher the fan speed is, the more air is
delivered.
Pushing the “OFF” button turns the fan off.
To remove the exterior windshield frost

The selected mode is highlighted.If manual switching of air intake is de-
sired—
Each time you push the air intake control
button, the mode changes in order from
the RECIRCULATED AIR mode to OUT-
SIDE AIR mode, then back to the RECIR-
CULATED AIR mode. Each indicator light
shows which mode is now selected.
1RECIRCULATED AIR mode — If
quick circulation of cooled air is de-
sired, select this mode.
2OUTSIDE AIR mode — The system
will take fresh outside air into the ve-
hicle.
For normal use, it is best to keep the air in-
take control button set to OUTSIDE AIR
mode. If recirculated air is used during
heating, the windows will fog up more easi-
ly.
In the following cases, the RECIRCU-
LATED mode may change to the OUT-
SIDE AIR mode automatically to prevent
interior fog.
When the outside temperature be-
comes lower than 5C (41F).
When the air conditioning compressor
malfunctions.
When the air conditioning cooler refrig-
erant decreases.
