Operating Tips for Audio System
Do not spill any liquid on the audio
system.
●To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the audio system
on for a long period of time when the engine is not running.
● If a cellular phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause
noise to occur from the audio system, however, this does not in dicate that
the system has been damaged.
WARNING
■ Always adjust the audio wh ile the vehicle is stopped
Do not adjust the audio control switches while driving the vehi cle. Adjusting
the audio while driving the vehicle is dangerous as it could di stract your
attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a seri ous accident.
Even if the audio control switches are equipped on the steering wheel, learn
to use the switches without looking down at them so that you ca n keep your
maximum attention on the road while driving the vehicle.
NOTICE
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the audio volume to a level that
allows you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle including car horns and
particularly emergency vehicle sirens.

■AM characteristics
AM signals bend around such things as buildings or mountains and
bounce off the ionosphere.
Therefore, they can reach lon ger distances than FM signals.
Because of this, 2 stations may sometimes be picked up on the
same frequency at the same time.
Ionosphere
Station 1
Station 2
■FM characteristics
An FM broadcast range is usually about 25 - 30 miles (40 - 50 km)
from the source. Because of extra coding needed to break the
sound into 2 channels, stereo FM has even less range than monau -
ral (non-stereo) FM.

●Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a
transmitter tower. The broad-
cast signals are extremely
strong, so the result is noise
and sound breakup at the
radio receiver.
● Station drift noise
When a vehicle reaches the area o f 2 strong stations broadcast-
ing at similar frequencies, the original station may be tempora rily
lost and the second station picked up. At this time there will be
some noise from this disturbance.
Station 1
88.1 MHz
Station 2
88.3 MHz
MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3, which is standardized voice
compression establ ished by the ISO
*1 working group (MPEG).
Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be compressed to approximat ely
a tenth of the source data size.
This unit plays files with the extension (.mp3) as MP3 files.
*1: International Organization for Standardization
• When naming an MP3 file, be sure to add an MP3 file extension
(.mp3) after the file name.
• The number of characters which can be displayed is restricted.
