Understanding Radio Reception
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 also
pick up noise from things like storms and power lines.
To lower this noise, try reducing the treble level.
Care
of
Your Cassette Tape Player
A
tape player that is not cleaned regularly is subject to
reduced sound quality, ruining the cassette, or damaging
the mechanism. Tape cassettes 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 to indicate that you have used your tape
player for
50
hours without resetting the tape clean
timer. (See “Playing a Cassette Tape” earlier in this
section.)
If
you notice a reduction in sound quality,
regardless of when the tape player was last cleaned, try
playing a different cassette to see if the tape or the 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 cleaner 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 the instructions with the cleaning cassette.
If
you
use this type 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 need to insert the
cleaning cassette at least three times to thoroughly clean
the
tape player.
