FM
Stereo
FM
stereo will give you the best sound. But
FM
signals
will reach only about
10
to
40
miles
(1
6
to
65
km).
Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with
FM
signals, causing
the sound to come and go.
AM
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 pick
up
noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise if you ever get it.
Tips
About Your
Audio
System
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 precautions by
adjusting the volume control on your radio to
a
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.
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, and even
damage them.
Your
vehicle’s systems may
interfere with 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.
