band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original
signal can be picked up again.
AM Transmissions
Fading - AM broadcasts are
reflected by the upper atmosphere,
especially at night. These reflected
signals can interfere 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
broadcast.
Static - AM is easily affected by
external sources of electrical noise,
such as high tension power lines,
lightning, or electrical motors. This
results in static.

of playback. Fingerprints or
scratches on the disc may prevent
playback or cause skipping during
playback. Sections of a CD-R or
CD-RW may deteriorate if it is left
inside a vehicle for long periods of time. It is also recommended that
CD-R and CD-RW discs be kept in
a light-resistant case because the
discs are vulnerable to ultra-violet
light.

O:Use this position to prevent
dusty or otherwise contaminated
outside air from entering the cab,
such as in a tunnel or in congested
traffic.
Extended use of the inside air
recirculation position causes the
windshield and windows to fog up
easily, making visibility poor. For
good ventilation, switch to outside
air as soon as possible.

full hot or the full cold position, the
air from the floor outlets and the air
from the upper outlets will be the
same temperature. This position can
give cool upper level air and warm
floor level air when the temperature
control is adjusted in between cold
and hot. This is useful in cool
weather with bright sunlight
conditions. Defogging and Defrosting the
Windshield

140 Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
If a warning light comes on or a
buzzer sounds while you are
driving, immediately stop the
vehicle in a safe place and
perform checks.
Slow down sufficiently when
approaching a curve. Applying the
brakes or sharply turning the
steering wheel while turning the
curve could cause the cargo to
shift, the tires to slip and the
vehicle to tip onto its side.
Avoid scraping the tire sidewalls
against curbstones or driving over
dips and protrusions in the road
surface. You could damage the
tires, resulting in a blowout or
flat tire.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
Pulling Away After Stopping
and Parking
Before pulling away, check that
there are no children or obstructions
around the vehicle and confirm that
it is safe to pull away.
If you cannot see the area behind
your vehicle well enough to confirm
it is safe to back up, get out of the
vehicle and check behind it.
Make it a habit to look around and
confirm that it is safe to pull away
after a temporary stop (at traffic
lights, for example).
If the Windshield Fogs Up
Use the heater to blow hot air on the
windshield or dehumidify the cabin
using the air conditioner and place
the outlet selector knob in the
5or
4position.
Place the air selector lever in the
outside air position.
Nighttime Visibility
If there is an old film on the
windshield, the lights of oncoming
traffic will be reflected in many directions, making it hard for you to
see ahead. Use glass cleaner to
clean the glass and the wiper
blades.
Worn wiper blades cannot wipe the
windshield clean and thus cannot
maintain visibility. When the wiper
blades become worn, replace them
with new ones.
Do Not Attach Accessories to
the Windshield or Windows
{Warning
Do not attach ornaments, films or
other accessories to the
windshield or windows. They
would impair visibility. Also, any
plastic suction cups used to
attach accessories could cause a
fire or a crash by acting as
lenses.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
