Your vehicle’s radio receives both AM andFM stations. The quality of your reception is affected by distance, obstacles, a
nd signal interference.
This radio complies with
Part 15 of Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules (for vehicles sold in U.S.A.). Operation is subject to the following conditions: The device may not cause harmful inter- ference. This device must ac
cept any interference
recieved, including interference that maycause undesirable operation.
FM signals do not follow the earth surface nor are they reflected by the upper atmo-sphere. For this reason
, FM broadcasts cannot
be received over long
distances. AM signals
follow the earth’s surface and are reflected bythe upper atmosphere. For this reason, AM broadcasts can be rece
ived over longer dis-
tances.
Because of the limited
range of FM signals
and the way FM waves transmit, you may experience weak or
fading FM reception.
When the broadcast is blocked by mountains or similar obstructions,
reception can be dis-
turbed. The reason why one can hear FM but not AM in parking garages, under
bridges etc., is that
FM signals, unlike AM
signals, are reflected
by solid objects such
as buildings, etc.
Because FM signals ar
e easily reflected by
buildings, this can also cause reception dis- turbances.The direct signal from
the broadcast station
reaches the antenna sl
ightly before the
reflected signal. This
time difference may
cause some reception di
sturbance or flutter.
This problem occurs primarily in urban areas.
NOTE
Reset the time after the 12V starter battery terminals are disconnect
ed and reconnected.
Seconds do not appear
in the clock display,
but after adjusting the “minutes” setting, theclock begins to operate from 0 seconds.
