• Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
• Increase the volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly.
Understanding Radio Reception
FM STEREO:
FM stereo will give you better sound than AM, but FM signals will only reach between 10
and 40 miles (16-65 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 experience it.
Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust. If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution.
Clean the disc, wiping from the center to the edge.
Never touch the signal surface when handling discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or the edge
of the hole and the outer edge.
Do not attach a label or tape or write on the surface of a disc.
