Cassette Player By using this button you can skip up or down to locate a song or recording. You can select up to 9 recordings (includ- ing current one). A blank space of at least 3 seconds is considered to be a start of a recording. When a beginning of a tape is reached, the player automatically resumes play.

When the end of the tape is reached, the player automatically reverses sides and resumes normal play. In addition, the feature may not work well with some spoken word, live, or classical recordings. ST (Stereo reception) display Your radio automatically changes to stereo reception when a stereo broadcast is re- ceived. “ST” appears on the display. If the signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the amount of channel separation to prev- ent the weak signal from creating noise. If the signal becomes extremely weak, the radio switches from stereo to mono recep- tion. TAPE Push “TAPE” to switch from radio or com- pact disc operation to cassette operation. If the audio system is off, you can turn on the cassette player by pushing “TAPE”. In both cases, a cassette must already be loaded in the player.

When “TA” is received next time, the sys- tem compares the volume before “TA” is received and the memorized TA volume and automatically selects the louder vol- ume.

Car audio system operating hints

NOTICE

To ensure correct audio system op- erations: z Be careful not to spill beverages

over the audio system.

z Do not put anything other than a cassette tape or Compact Disc into the slot.

z The use of a cellular phone inside or near the vehicle may cause a noise from the speakers of the au- dio system which you are listening to. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.

RADIO RECEPTION Usually, a problem with radio reception does not mean there is a problem with your radio—it is just the normal result of conditions outside the vehicle. For example, nearby buildings and terrain can interfere with FM reception. Power lines or telephone wires can interfere with AM signals. And of course, radio signals have a limited range. The farther you are from a station, the weaker its signal will be. conditions change constantly as your vehicle moves.

In addition,

signals are

Here are some common reception prob- lems that probably do not indicate a prob- lem with your radio: FM Fading and drifting stations—Generally, the effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may notice fading and drifting, which increase with the distance from the radio transmit- ter. They are often accompanied by distor- tion. Multi−path—FM reflective, making it possible for two signals to reach your antenna at the same time. If this happens, the signals will cancel each oth- er out, causing a momentary 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. the FM signal you Station swapping—If are interrupted or weak- is ened, and there is another strong station nearby on the FM band, your radio may tune in the second station until the origi- nal signal can be picked up again.

listening to

they can

AM Fading—AM broadcasts are reflected by the upper atmosphere—especially at night. These reflected signals can interfere with those received directly from the radio sta- tion, causing the radio station to sound alternately strong and weak. Station interference—When a reflected sig- nal and a signal received directly from a radio station are very nearly the same frequency, 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 electri- cal motors. This results in static. CARING FOR YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER AND TAPES For the best performance for your cas- sette player and tapes: Clean the tape head and other parts regu- larly. D A dirty

D Do not use a cassette if it has been damaged or tangled or if its label is peeling off.

D Do not leave a cassette in the player if you are not listening to it, especially if it is hot outside.

D Store cassettes in their cases and out

D Avoid using cassettes with a total play- ing time longer than 100 minutes (50
minutes per side). The tape used in these cassettes is thin and could get stuck or tangled in the cassette player.

CARING FOR YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER AND DISCS D Type 2 only—Your compact disc player is intended for use with 12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.

D Extremely high temperatures can keep your compact disc player from working. On hot days, use the air conditioning to cool the vehicle interior before you listen to a disc.

D Bumpy roads or other vibrations may

make your compact disc player skip.

D If moisture gets into your compact disc player, you may not hear any sound even though your compact disc player appears the disc from the player and wait until it dries.

D Dirt, scrapes, warping, pin holes, or other disc 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.)

To clean a compact disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint−free cloth that has been damp- ened with water. Wipe in a straight line from the center to the edge of the disc (not in circles). Dry it with another soft, lint−free cloth. Do not use a conventional record cleaner or anti−static device.

Checking and replacing the air conditioning filter

1. Open

the glove box. Remove

the screw with a Phillips−head screw- driver and slide the hook as shown.

The air conditioning filter information label is placed inside of the glove box as shown and indicates that a filter has been installed. The air conditioning filter prevents dust from entering the vehicle through the air conditioning vent.

The air conditioning filter is behind the glove box. The air conditioning filter may clog af- ter long use. The filter may need to be replaced if the air flow of the air condi- tioning and heater experiences extreme reductions in operating efficiency, or if the windows begin to fog up easily in FRESH mode. To maintain the air conditioning efficiency, inspect and replace the air conditioning filter according to the maintenance sched- ule. (For scheduled maintenance informa- tion, please refer to the “Scheduled Main- tenance Guide” or “Owner’s Manual Supplement”.)
