Tips on Caring for the Cassette Player and Tapes In order to keep your cassette tape player performing the way it was meant to, read and follow these simple precautions: n Using a Ford or equivalent cassette cleaning cartridge to
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 cassette.
n Do not leave a tape in the cassette tape player. High heat in
the vehicle can cause the cassette to warp.
Clock Operation How to view the clock mode
Press the “CLK” button to display time. The time will continue to be displayed until a radio or tape function is chosen. After approximately 10 seconds, the time will again appear in the display. To display radio or tape information only, press the “CLK” button a second time.

Common Operating Conditions of the CD Player
The following information is designed to help you recognize typical situations that could be mistakenly interpreted as mechanical malfunctions of the disc player. n A disc is already loaded. n The disc is inserted with the label surface downward. n The disc is dusty or defective. n The player’s internal temperature is above 140˚F (60˚C).
Allow the player to cool off before operating.
n Different manufacturers of compact discs may produce discs with different dimensions or tolerances, some of which may not be within industry standards or in accordance with the CD format. Because of this, a new disc that is free of dust and scratches could be defective and may not play on your Ford Compact Disc Player.
If play does not begin after the CD button is pushed: n The radio is not on. n The discs are inserted improperly in the magazine or the CD
magazine is not inserted.
n Moisture may have condensed on the lenses within the unit.
If this occurs, remove the disc and wait approximately an hour until the moisture evaporates.
If the sound skips: n Badly scratched discs or extremely rough roads will cause
the sound to skip. Skipping will not damage the disc player or scratch the discs.

In order to keep your cassette tape player performing the way it was meant to, read and follow these simple precautions: n Using a Ford or equivalent cassette cleaning cartridge to
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 cassette.
n Do not leave a tape in the cassette tape player. High heat in
the vehicle can cause the cassette to warp.

Using the Controls of Your Compact Disc Radio (If equipped) Your Ford Compact Disc Radio is capable of playing 12 cm or 8
cm discs. The player operates when the power is on and a disc is inserted (label side up). Handle the disc by the edge only. Be sure to read and follow all of the care and cleaning instructions under How to Take Care of and Clean Your CD Player and Discs. The digital display on your CD player will either show the track (selection) number or the elapsed time. Select the display mode by pressing the ”CLK“ button. Indicators for play (a), stop (X), and compression (C) are also on the display. These features are described later. Once a disc is inserted, operation of the CD player will override the radio. NOTE: The volume, bass, treble, balance, and fader controls on the radio are also used with the CD player. Refer to the earlier operating instructions about these controls.Inserting a disc and beginning play
Insert a disc, label side up, into the disc opening. When inserted, the disc automatically loads into the unit and play starts at the beginning of the first track (selection). NOTE: Once a disc is inserted, the disc opening is secured to
prevent the accidental insertion of another disc.
NOTE: The CD player has heat protection circuitry to protect
the laser diode. If the temperature of the player reaches 167˚F (75˚C), the heat detection circuit will shut off the player and ”CD HOT“ will scroll in the display for approximately five seconds (radio will resume playing). When the temperature returns to normal operating range, the CD player will again be operational.

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.
55

*[AS30830(R)05/96]
*[AS30840(R)05/96]
*[AS30850(R)05/96]
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.
If there is a building or large structure between the antenna and station, some of the signal ”bends“ around the building, but certain spots receive almost no signal. Moving out of the ”shadow“ of the structure will allow the station to return to normal.
When the radio waves are reflected off objects or structures, the reflected signal cancels the normal signal, causing the antenna to pick up noise and distortion. Cancellation effects are most prominent in metropolitan areas, but also can become quite severe in hilly terrain and depressed roadways.
To minimize these conditions, a stereo/mono blend circuit has been incorporated into this system. This feature automatically switches a weak stereo signal to a clearer monaural signal, which improves the quality of reception.
Several sources of static are normal conditions on AM frequencies. These can be caused by power lines, electric fences, traffic lights and thunderstorms.
Another reception phenomenon is Strong Signal Capture and Overload. This can occur when listening to a weak station and when passing another broadcast tower. The close station may capture the more distant station, although the displayed frequency does not change. While passing the tower, the station may switch back and forth a few times before returning to the original station.

Electronic Sound Systems
When several broadcast towers are present (common in metropolitan areas), several stations may overload the receiver, resulting in considerable station changing, mixing and distortion. Automatic gain control circuitry for both AM and FM bands has been incorporated into this system to reduce strong signal capture and overload. All About Radio Frequencies The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) establish the frequencies that AM and FM radio stations may use for their broadcasts. The allowable frequencies are, AM: 530, 540...1600, 1610 kHz in 10 kHz steps; FM: 87.9, 88.1...107.7, 107.9
MHz in 0.2 MHz steps. Not all frequencies will be assigned to a given area. This radio will tune to each of these frequencies using manual tune and no fine tuning is necessary as radio stations may not use other 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.57
