To help avoid hearing loss or damage: 1. Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting. 2. Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly. NOTICE: Before you add any sound equipment to your vehicle -like a tape player, CB radio, mobile telephoneor two-way radio -be sure you can addwhat you want. If you can, it's veryimportant to do it properly. Addedsound equipment may interfere with the operation of your vehicle's engine, Delco@ radio or other systems, and even damage them. And, your vehicle's systems may interfere with the operation of sound equipment that has been added improperly. So, before adding sound equipment, check withyour dealer and be sure to check Federal rules covering mobileradio and telephone units. Care of Your Cassette Player and Tape A tape player that is not cleaned regularly is subject to reduced sound quality, ruining the cassette, ordamaging the mechanism. Tapecassettes that are not properly stored in their plastic cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight, and extreme heat, may not operate properly and could cause premature failure of the tape player. Your tape player should be cleaned with every 50 hours of use to provide optimum performance. Your radio may display "Cln" (Clean) to indicate that you have used your tape player for 50 hours without re-setting thetape clean timer.If you notice a reduction in sound quality, regardless of when the tape player was last cleaned, try playing a different cassette to seeif the tape or tape player is at fault. If the second cassette results in no improvement in sound quality, try cleaning the tape player. Proper tape player cleaning should be done with a scrubbing action, non-abrasive cleaning cassette. This is a wet-type cleaning system that uses a cleaning cassette with pads which scrub the tape head as the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. To properly clean your tape player,follow instructions with the cleaning cassette. If you use thistype of cleaner, the radio may display an error and eject the cartridge. This is normal and is the result of an added feature in the tape player that detects broken tapes. If an error occurs, you will needto insert the cleaning cassette at least 3 times to thoroughly clean the tape player. 3-19
