Stereo
FM

will
reach only about
10
to
40
miles (16 to
65
km). Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with
FM
signals, causing
the sound to come and
go.

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

up
noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble

reduce this noise

Tips
About
Your
Audio
System
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable
until
it is
too
late. Your hearing can adapt to higher
volumes
of
sound. Sound that seems normal can be
loud and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by
adjusting the volume control on your radio to a safe
sound level before your hearing adapts
to
it.
To
help avoid hearing loss or damage:
0
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
Increase volume slowly
until
you hear comfortably
and clearly.

NOTICE:
Before you add any sound equipment to your
vehicle
--
like
a
tape player, CB radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
--
be sure
you
can
add what you want. If you can, it’s very important
to do it properly. Added sound equipment may
interfere with the operation
of
your vehicle’s
engine, Cadillac radio
or other systems, and even
damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may
interfere with the operation of sound equipment
that has been added improperly.
So,
before adding sound equipment, check with
your dealer and be sure to check Federal rules
covering mobile radio and telephone units.
