6. TIPS FOR OPERATING THE AUDIO SYSTEM
1. OPERATING INFORMATION
RADIO
Fading and drifting stations: Generally, the  
effective range of FM is about 25 miles (40  
km). Once outside this range, you may no-
tice fading and drifting, which increase with  
the  distance  from  the  radio  transmitter.  
They are often accompanied by distortion.
Multi-path: FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for 2 signals to reach the ve-
hicle’s  antenna  at  the  same  time.  If  this  
happens, the signals will cancel each other  
out, causing a momentar y 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 fluttering.
Station  swapping:  If  the  FM  signal  being  
listened to is interrupted or weakened, and  
there  is  another  strong  station  nearby  on  
the  FM  band,  the  radio  may  tune  in  the  
second station until the original signal can  
be picked up again.
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 st rong and weak.
Station interference: When a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a ra-
dio  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 electrical 
motors. This results in static.
NOTICE
● To avoid damage to the audio system:
• Be  careful  not  to  spill  beverages  over  
the audio system.
• Do  not  put  anything  other  than  an  
appropriate disc into the disc slot.
INFORMATION
● The  use  of  a  cellular  phone  inside  or  
near the vehicle may cause a noise from  
the  speakers  of  the  audio  system  which  
you  are  listening  to.  However,  this  does  
not indicate a malfunction.
Usually, a problem with radio reception  
does not mean there is a problem with  
the  radio  —  it  is  just  the  normal  result  
of conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and ter-
rain  can  interfere  with  FM  reception.  
Power  lines  or  phone  wires  can  inter-
fere with AM signals. And of course, ra-
dio  signals  have  a  limited  range.  The  
farther the vehicle is from a station, the  
weaker its signal will be. In addition, re-
ception  conditions  change  constantly  
as the vehicle moves.
Here,  some  common  reception  prob-
lems  that  probably  do  not  indicate  a  
problem with the radio are described.

CD PLAYER AND DISC
 This CD player is intended for use with 4.7  
in. (12 cm). discs only.
 Ext remely high temperatures can keep the
 
CD  pl
ayer from working. On hot days, use  
the  air  conditioning  system  to  cool  the  
inside  of  the  vehicle  before  using  the  
player.
 Bumpy  roads  or  other  vibrations  may
 
ma ke 
the CD player skip.
 If  moisture  gets  into  the  CD  player,  the
 
d i
scs  may  not  be  able  to  be  played.  
Remove  the  discs  from  the  player  and  
wait until it dries.
 Use  only  discs  marked  as  shown  above.  
The  following  products  may  not  be  play -
able on your player:
•SACD
• dts CD
• Copy-protected CD
• Video CD

● CD  players  use  an  invisible  laser  beam  
which could cause hazardous laser radi-
ation  exposure  if  directed  outside  the  
unit.  Be  sure  to  operate  the  player  cor-
rectly.

Correct Wrong
Handle  discs  carefully,  especially  when  
inserting  them.  Hold  them  on  the  edge  
and  do  not  bend  them.  Avoid  getting  fin -
gerprints on them, particularly on the shiny  
si de.
 Dirt , scratches, warping, pin holes or other
 
d is
c  damage  could  cause  the  player  to  
skip  or  to  repeat  a  section  of  a  track.  (To  
see  a  pin  hole,  hold  the  disc  up  to  the  
light.)
 Remove  disc
s
   from  the  players  when  not  
in  use.  Store  them  in  their  plastic  cases  
away  from  moisture,  heat  and  direct  sun -
light.
NOTICE
● Do not use special shaped, transparent/
translucent,  low  quality  or  labeled  discs  
such as those shown in the illustrations.  
The  use  of  such  discs  may  damage  the  
player,  or  it  may  be  impossible  to  eject  
the disc.
● This  system  is  not  designed  for  use  of  
Dual  Discs.  Do  not  use  Dual  Discs  
because they may cause damage to the  
player.
● Do  not  use  discs  with  a  protection  ring.  
The  use  of  such  discs  may  damage  the  
player,  or  it  may  be  impossible  to  eject  
the disc.
● Do  not  use  printable  discs.  The  use  of  
such discs may damage the player, or it  
may be impossible to eject the disc.

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  circles).  
Dry  it  with  another  sof t,  lint-free  cloth.  Do 
not  use  a  conventional  record  cleaner  or  
anti-static device.
 CD-R/CD-RW  discs  that  have  not  been  
subject  to  the  “finalizing  process”  (a  pro -
cess  that  allows  discs  to  be  played  on  a  
co nven
ti
onal  CD  player)  cannot  be  
played.
 It  may  not  be  possible  to  play  CD-R/CD-

  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
 
rec orded 
on a personal computer depend -
ing  on  the  application  settings  and  the

be 
unable  to  play  some  damaged  
discs.
 If you insert a CD-RW disc into the player,
 
pl a
yback  will  begin  more  slowly  than  with  
a conventional CD or CD-R disc.
 Recor dings  on  CD-R/CD-RW  cannot  be

 Thi s  system  plays  back  files  with  .mp3/

creating  discs  with  no  more  than  2  levels  
of folders.
