Understanding Radio Reception FM Stereo FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals will reach only about 10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 kmj. Tall buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing the sound to come and go. NOTICE: Before you add any sound equipment to your vehicle like a tape player, CB radio, mobile telephone or two-way radio be sure you can add what you want. If you can, it's very important to do it properly. Added sound equipment may interfere with the operation of your vehicle's engine, Delco@ radio or other systems, andeven damage them. And, your vehicle's systems may interferewith the operation of sound equipment that has been added improperly. So, before adding sound equipment, check with your dealer and be sure to check Federal rules covering mobile radio and telephone units. -- -- AIM The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at night. The longer range, however. can cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can also pick up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try reducing the treble to lower this noise. Be aware that hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable until it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher volumes of sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud and harmful to your hearing. Take precautionsby adjusting the volume control on your radio toa safe sound level before your hearing adapts to it. To help avoid hearing loss or damage: Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting. Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly. 3-8
