The entertainment system consists of an AM/FM stereo with a compact disc player and a clock, 4 speakers, and an antenna.

The ignition switch must be in the ACC or ON position in order to operate any of the sound systems. The front speakers are located on the front doors. The rear speakers are located beneath the rear quarter lower trim panel on each side of the vehicle.

The FM tuner operates on a band from 87.7-107.9 MHz. Optimum FM radio reception range is usually limited to a maximum of 16-64 km (10-40 mi) depending on terrain, atmospheric conditions, station power, antenna height and distance from the transmitter. Tall buildings, hills or other objects can case signal flutter or noise. Eliminate the noise by tuning to a stronger station.

The AM tuner operates on a band from 530-1710 kHz. The range of most AM stations is greater than FM, especially at night. AM signals can interfere with each other due to the longer range of the AM band. AM reception is subject to noise interference from storms and power lines. Reduce the treble in order to reduce noise.

Battery voltage is applied at all times for the radio clock and memory circuitry through the DOME fuse. The clock and memory functions need to be reset if the voltage source is interrupted for any reason.

The battery voltage is applied through the CIG fuse to the radio with the ignition switch in the ACC or the ON position. Voltage is applied through the switch to power all electronic radio functions when the radio ON/VOL control is turned to the ON position. The radio is permanently grounded at G200.

Turning the headlamps or the park lamps on will give the IP lamp dimmer control of the illumination of the display. The dimmer is located on the instrument panel to the left of the steering wheel. If the headlamps or the parking lamps are off, the intensity of the display's illumination is 100 percent. The display is not adjustable.

The ignition switch must be in the ACC position or in the ON position in order to operate the radio. If the ignition is in the OFF position, press the RCL/TUNE knob in order to display the time for 5 seconds. If the ignition switch is in the ACC position or in the ON position and the radio is turned off, the time will display. In this instance, all controls, except for the eject button and for the controls that are required to set the clock, will deactivate. The eject button has an up arrow and a line at the bottom.

Press the PWR/ VOL knob in order to turn the radio on. Turn the knob clockwise in order to increase the sound. In order to decrease the sound, turn the knob counterclockwise. Press the PWR/ VOL knob again in order to turn the radio off.

Press the RCL/TUNE knob with the radio on in order to toggle the display between the following:

1. The clock
2. The band
3. The radio frequency

Pressing the knob once will change the display from the clock to the band mode. Pressing the knob a second time within approximately 2 seconds will change the display from the band to the radio frequency mode. If the knob is not pressed a second time, the display will change from the band to the radio frequency within 2 seconds automatically. After approximately 5 seconds, the display will return to the clock.

Press this button in order to move between the AM band and the FM band. AM or FM will appear on the display, depending on the band that you select. The radio will automatically go to the frequency that played when that band was last used.

Press the right end of the SEEK button to automatically tune to the next higher station within range. Press the left end of the SEEK button to automatically tune to the next lower station within range. Upon reaching the end of the band, the seek function will continue in the same direction at the opposite end of the band.

Turn the RCL/TUNE knob clockwise in order to manually tune the radio frequency forward. Turn the RCL/TUNE knob counterclockwise in order to manually tune the radio frequency backward. On the AM band, the frequency advances in increments of 10 kHz in either direction. On the FM band, the frequency advances in increments of 0.2 MHz in either direction. Upon reaching the end of the band, the tune function will continue in the same direction at the opposite end of the band.

The radio has six preset buttons. The buttons are numbered 1 through 6. The buttons permit you to preset 6 stations on the AM band and 12 stations on the FM band. In order to set a station preset button:

1. Select the AM band or the FM band.
2. Tune the radio to the desired station.
3. Press and hold the desired preset button. Press and hold the button for approximately three seconds.
4. When a beep sounds, release the button.
