FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

Your vehicle may be equipped with a Family Entertainment System
(FES). Refer to the DVD Supplement Guide for further information on
your system.

RADIO FREQUENCIES

AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:

AM - 530, 540–1700, 1710 kHz

FM- 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz

RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS

There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
• Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the

weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,

traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

• Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal

may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.

CASSETTE/PLAYER CARE

Do:
• Use only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less.
• Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the hole

and turning the hub.

• Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.
• Allow tapes which have been subjected to extreme heat, humidity or

cold to reach a moderate temperature before playing.
