AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. This signal is then received by
the radio and sent to your vehicle
speakers.
When a strong radio signal has
reached your vehicle, the precise
engineering of your audio system
ensures the best possible quality
reproduction. However, in some
cases the signal coming to your vehi-
cle may not be strong and clear. This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions inthe area.

4 AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broad-
casts. This is because AM radio
waves are transmitted at low fre-
quencies. These long, low frequency
radio waves can follow the curvature
of the earth rather than travelling
straight out into the atmosphere. In
addition, they curve around obstruc-
tions so that they can provide better
signal coverage.
FM broadcasts are transmitted athigh frequencies and do not bend to
follow the earth's surface. Because
of this, FM broadcasts generally
begin to fade at short distances from
the station. Also, FM signals are eas-
ily affected by buildings, mountains,
or other obstructions. These can
result in certain listening conditions
which might lead you to believe a
problem exists with your radio. The
following conditions are normal and
do not indicate radio trouble: Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select anotherstronger station.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can dis-turb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing
the treble level may lessen this
effect until the disturbance clears.

Station Swapping - As a FM signal
weakens, another more powerful signal 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 astronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from sever-
al directions can cause distortion
or fluttering. This can be caused bya direct and reflected signal from
the same station, or by signals
from two stations with close fre-
quencies. If this occurs, selectanother station until the conditionhas passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does notmean that something is wrong with the
audio equipment. In such a case, use
the cellular phone at a place as far as
possible from the audio equipment. Caring for Disc
If the temperature inside the car is
too high, open the car windows to
ventilate before using the system.
It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA files without permis-
sion. Use CDs that are created
only by lawful means.
Do not apply volatile agents, such as benzene and thinner, normal
cleaners and magnetic sprays
made for analogue disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged, hold CDs by the
edges or the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipeit from the center to the outsideedge).
Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or
paper.
Make certain only CDs are insert- ed into the CD player (Do not insertmore than one CD at a time).
Keep CDs in their cases after use to protect them from scratches or
dirt.
CAUTION
When using a communication
system such as a cellular phoneor a radio set inside the vehicle, a separate external antennamust be fitted. When a cellularphone or a radio set is used with an internal antenna alone,it may interfere with the vehi-cle's electrical system andadversely affect safe operation of the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not use a cellular phone
while driving. Stop at a safe
location to use a cellular phone.

ing and recording methods. In such
circumstances, continued use may
cause malfunctions to your audiosystem.
✽✽ NOTICE - Playing an
Incompatible Copy
Protected Audio CD
Some copy protected CDs, which do
not comply with international audio
CD standards (Red Book), may not
play on your car audio. Please note
that inabilities to properly play a
copy protected CD may indicate
that the CD is defective, not the CD
player.
NOTE:
Order of playing files (folders) :
1. Song playing order : to sequentially.
2. Folder playing order : ❋ If no song file is contained in

can be heard as these signs
may indicate product mal func-
tion. Continued use in suchconditions could lead to acci-
dents (fires, electric shock) or
product malfunctions.
