AM ANTENNA TRIMMER
It is very important to adjust the Antenna Trimmer for
optimum AM reception. The antenna trimmer is located
on the right side of the chassis. Adjust it as follows:
1. Tune in a weak station around 1400 KHz on the AM
band.
2. Using a small screwdriver, slowly adjust the trimmer
for maximum output from the radio.
NOTE: The Antenna Trimmer only affects AM reception,
and will have no effect on FM reception. The
Trimmer only needs to be adjusted when the
radio is first installed and at any time a change is
made to the vehicle antenna (replacing the mast,
etc.).

FM LOCAL/DISTANT SELECTOR
This selector switch is incorporated to allow maximum
reception in both weak and strong FM signal areas. For
normal reception conditions and when receiving a wide
range of signals including weak or distant stations, the
switch should be set to the “in” position, which will allow
maximum signal to the receiver. When in an extremely
strong (local) signal area, set the switch to the Local
setting (“out” position). This will eliminate weak signals
and suppress overly strong signals so as to avoid over-
loading the receiver input. When moving out of the
strong signal area, return the switch to the Distant (in)
setting.
NOTE: The Local/Distant Selector only affects FM sig-
nals, and will have no effect on AM reception.

CASSETTE DOOR
Hold the cassette with the exposed tape edge to the right
and insert it into the cassette door. Depress fully until the
cassette is engaged and begins playing.
NOTE: Observe the cassette operation cautions in the
Care and Maintenance section of this manual.

FAST-FORWARD/EJECT BUTTON
This button performs two functions. To eject a cassette,
simply depress the button fully then release. The cas-
sette will eject and radio operation will resume.
To fast-forward the tape, depress the button half-way in
to the locked position. To stop fast-forward and resume
normal tape playback, depress the button slightly and
release. Do not press fully in or the cassette will be
ejected.
NOTE: Never leave a cassette engaged in the player
when not in use. Doing so can cause damage to
the cassette and/or mechanism of the unit. Al-
ways press the eject button and remove the
cassette when leaving the vehicle.
