How to stop and restart the CD player When a disc is loaded, the unit automatically enters the play mode and the play indicator (a) illuminates. To stop temporarily, press the “PLAY/STOP” button or the “AM/FM” button. The stop indicator (X) in the display illuminates and operation returns to the radio mode. To resume CD play, press the “PLAY/STOP” button once again. NOTE: If the ignition key is turned OFF during play and

then is set to the ON or ACCESSORY position, the CD player will resume playing in the mode it was in when ignition was turned off.

How to locate a selection on your CD player using Automatic Music Search (AMS) An “AMS” (Automatic Music Search) control on your CD player allows you to quickly find a particular selection on the disc. Press the left f side of the “AMS” control to locate a previous selection or the right e side of the “AMS” control to locate a later selection. How to fast forward or reverse your CD player To quickly search for a particular point in a selection, press the right e button (to fast forward) or the left f button (to reverse). While either button is pressed, the disc goes forward or backward at two different speeds depending on how long the button is held down. (Pressing either button for more than approximately three seconds will speed up the process.) Release the button at the desired point (found by watching the elapsed playing time in the display or listening to the sound during fast forward or reverse). When you have reached the end of the disc by keeping the fast forward e side of the button pressed, the display will show the end time of the last track and the sound will be muted. When the fast forward e side of the button is released, the player resumes play at the beginning of the first track.

Both the shuffle and scan features can be activated simultaneously. In this mode, the player will randomly pick a selection and play the first eight seconds. This process is continued until either the “SCAN” button or “SHUFFLE” button is pressed a second time.

n Automatic Disc Storage

If the disc is ejected from the CD player but is not removed from the disc opening within approximately 10 seconds, the player will automatically reload the disc for storage, unless the disc is automatically ejected due to a “focus error” (disc inserted upside down). In this case, the disc will not be automatically reloaded. How to eject the disc Push the “EJECT” button in the upper left corner of your CD player to stop play, eject the disc and resume radio or tape operation of your audio system. How To Take Care of and Clean Your CD Player and Discs To ensure the continued performance of your Ford Compact Disc Player, carefully read the following precautions: n Always handle the disc by its edge. Never touch the playing

surface.

n Before playing, inspect the disc for any contamination. If

needed, clean the disc with an approved disc cleaner, such as the Discwasher쑓 Compact Disc Cleaner or the Allsop 3쑓 Compact Disc Cleaner, by wiping from the center out to the edges. Do not use a circular motion to clean.

n Do not clean discs with solvents such as benzine, thinner,

commercially available cleaners or antistatic spray intended for analog records.

clean the tape player head after 10-12 hours of play will help maintain the best playback sound and proper tape operation.

n Only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less should be

used. Tapes longer than 90 minutes are thinner and subject to breakage or may jam the tape player mechanism.

n Protect cassettes from exposure to direct sunlight, high

humidity and extreme heat or cold. If they are exposed to extreme conditions, allow them to reach a moderate temperature before playing.

n If a tape is loose inside the cassette, tighten it before playing by putting your finger or a pencil into one of the holes and turning the hub until the tape is tight.

n Loose labels on cassette tapes can become lodged in the

mechanism. Remove any loose label material before inserting a cassette.

n Do not leave a tape in the cassette tape player when not in use. High heat in the vehicle can cause the cassette to warp.

Using the Power Antenna

The power antenna will automatically rise when your radio is turned on and the ignition is in the ON or ACC position. It will lower when either the radio or the ignition is turned off.

Power antenna maintenance and care n Never drive your vehicle through a car wash with the power

antenna mast extended. This can cause damage to the antenna mast, which is not covered under warranty. Turn off your radio and/or the vehicle. This will automatically retract the antenna.

n If your power antenna mast ever becomes damaged, the

mast may not extend or retract properly which might limit reception performance. In this case, it is not necessary to replace the entire power antenna assembly. A replacement mast can be obtained from your dealership for a nominal fee. n Occasionally, the power antenna mast should be wiped clean

with mild soap and water or denatured alcohol. This prevents debris from accumulating on the mast which can cause excessive wear and decrease the power antenna life. Never use petroleum-based products to clean your antenna mast.

Common Radio Reception Conditions Several conditions prevent FM reception from being completely clear and noise-free, such as the following:

1. Distance/Strength

The strength of the FM signal is directly related to the distance the signal must travel. The listenable range of an average FM signal is approximately 25 miles (40 kilometers). Beyond this distance, the radio is operating in a fringe area and the signal becomes weaker.

Electronic Sound Systems

2. Terrain

The terrain (hilly, mountainous, tall buildings) of the area over which the signal travels may prevent the FM signal from being noise-free.

3. Rounded off frequencies

Some FM radio stations advertise a “rounded-off” frequency which is not the frequency they actually broadcast on. For example, a radio station that is assigned a frequency of 98.7
MHz may call itself “Radio 99” even though 99.0 MHz is not an allowable FM broadcast frequency. Important Warranty and Service Information n Warranty

Your sound system is warranted for three years or 36,000 miles (60,000 kilometers), whichever comes first. Consult your vehicle warranty booklet for further information. Ask your dealer for a copy of this limited warranty. n Service

At Ford, we stand behind our audio systems with a comprehensive service and repair program. If anything should go wrong with your Ford audio system, return to your dealer for service. There is a nationwide network of qualified Ford authorized repair centers to assist you.

Controls and Features

The Climate Control Systems Your vehicle has one of the following: n Heating Only System (Without Air Conditioning) n Heating and Air Conditioning System If you are not sure which system your vehicle has, see the diagrams on the following pages. Heating Only System The control for your heater system is located at the center of the instrument panel below the radio. The heater will operate only when the ignition key is turned to the ON position. Your heater will heat and/or ventilate your vehicle interior depending on the function selector knob position and temperature you select. The function selector knob allows you to select heating or ventilation and determine where the air will be directed. The temperature control knob setting determines the temperature of the air that flows into the vehicle.

The control for the heating only system

To turn your heater system on, select any position except OFF. This will turn the fan on and allow air flow into the vehicle. To turn your heater off, select OFF. This will turn the fan off and stop air flow from coming into the vehicle.

Your vehicle also has small demister openings on each front door near the window. This allows a small amount of air flow to be directed onto the door glass to reduce fogging whenever the heater system is operating. The temperature control is located at the right side of the control with a broken RED and BLUE band around the top and sides. The all RED part of the band (full right) is the heat or warmer area. The all BLUE area (full left) is the cool or unheated temperature area. Any position selected between full right and full left will give a temperature between the two extreme temperatures. The cool temperature you select will not be cooler than the outside temperature if your vehicle is not equipped with an air conditioner. H Fan speed adjustment The H (left) control is the fan speed control which controls the volume of air flow. Rotate the H control to HI to increase fan speed and increase the amount of air entering the vehicle. Four fan speed positions are available and are indicated by LO, two single dots and HI beside the H control.

Air conditioning

A/C

Select A/C to get refrigerated outside air through the instrument panel registers. The A/C position is used for cooling except when extremely hot or fast cooling of the vehicle is needed. Then, select MAX A/C for fast cooling and return to A/C when you are comfortable.

MAX A/C

The MAX A/C position produces cool air more rapidly to provide faster cooling of your vehicle. This is possible because cooler air is drawn from inside the passenger area and refrigerated again instead of using warmer outside air. Using inside air will also make the fan sound louder, which is normal when using MAX A/C. The air flow will be from the instrument panel registers. Comfort tips

The following tips will help you to get the most satisfaction from your climate control system. n In humid weather, select V DEF before starting your

engine. This will help to prevent windshield fogging. After a few minutes of operation, you may select another function.

n To prevent humidity buildup inside your vehicle, always

drive with the climate control system turned on.

n Do not put objects under the front seats that interfere with

the flow of air to the back seat area.

n Remove any snow, ice, or leaves from the air intake area of

your heater and air conditioner system which could block the air intake. The intake area is located at the bottom of the windshield.

If you drive up or down a steep hill, your vehicle may momentarily slow down or speed up, even though the speed control is on. This is normal. NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic

transaxle, and if your speed increases above your set speed while driving in Overdrive on a downhill grade, you may want to turn the Overdrive off and use Drive. You may turn the Overdrive off by pressing the Transaxle Control Switch on the left side of the gearshift lever. This will reduce vehicle speed if it goes above your set speed on a downhill grade.

NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a 5-speed manual

transaxle, and if your speed increases above your set speed while driving in 5 (Fifth) gear on a downhill grade, you may want to shift to 4 (Fourth) gear to reduce vehicle speed. Depressing the clutch pedal cancels speed control, therefore speed control must be reset by pressing the SET/ACC or RES buttons. Speed control cannot reduce the vehicle speed if it goes above your set speed on a downhill grade.

To Speed Up Hold the Set Accel switch down and the vehicle will speed up without the need to depress the accelerator. When the switch is released, the system will maintain the speed reached. This speed becomes the new stored speed. The vehicle speed can also be increased by momentarily depressing the Set Accel switch (Tap up). Each tap will increase the speed by approximately 1 mph (1.6 km/h). To Slow Down Hold the Coast switch down and the vehicle will slow down under normal engine braking. When the switch is released, the system will maintain the speed reached. This speed becomes the new stored speed.
