Try reducing the treble to reduce this noise if you ever get it. Cassette tapes should be stored in their cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and extreme heat.
Store them in their original cases 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 and clean it, wiping from the center to the edge. This is true for any motor vehicle passenger car, van, truck or sport utility. But statistics show that the most important factor, by far, is how we drive.
Page Driving Environment Driving Environment You can also help avoid a rollover or other type of crash by being prepared for driving in inclement weather, at night, or during other times where visibility or traction may be limited such as on curves, slippery roads or hilly terrain. Page Drunken Driving Defensive driving requires that a driver concentrate on the driving task.
Anything that distracts from the driving task such as concentrating on a cellular telephone call, reading, or reaching for something on the floor makes proper defensive driving more difficult and can even cause a collision, with resulting injury. Page According to the American Medical Association, a lb. The person would reach the same BAC by drinking three 4 ounce ml glasses of wine or three mixed drinks if each had 1 45 ml of a liquor like whiskey, gin or vodka. Page All drivers are impaired at BAC levels above 0.
Statistics show that the chance of being in a collision increases sharply for drivers who have a BAC of 0. A driver with a BAC level of 0. They are the brakes, the steering and the accelerator. All three systems have to do their work at the places where the tires meet the road. Some people drive in spurts heavy acceleration followed by heavy braking rather than keeping pace with traffic.
This is a mistake. Your brakes may not have time to cool between hard stops. Your brakes will wear out much faster if you do a lot of heavy braking. Suddenly, an animal jumps out in front of you. You slam on the brakes and continue braking. If one of the wheels is about to stop rolling, the computer will separately work the brakes at each wheel. If the front drive wheels begin to slip, the rear wheels will automatically begin to drive the vehicle as required. Page Steering In Emergencies What should you do if this ever happens?
Ease up on the accelerator pedal, steer the vehicle the way you want it to go, and slow down. Speed limit signs near curves warn that you should adjust your speed. Of course, the posted speeds are based on good weather and road conditions. Page Off Road Recovery An emergency like this requires close attention and a quick decision.
But you have to act fast, steer quickly, and just as quickly straighten the wheel once you have avoided the object. Page Passing The driver of a vehicle about to pass another on a lane highway waits for just the right moment, accelerates, moves around the vehicle ahead, then goes back into the right lane again. A simple maneuver? Not necessarily!
Passing another vehicle on a two highway is a potentially dangerous move, since the passing vehicle occupies the same lane as oncoming traffic for several seconds. Page Loss Of Control Check your mirrors, glance over your shoulder and start your left lane change signal before moving out of the right lane to pass. When you are far enough ahead of the passed vehicle to see its front in your inside mirror, activate your right lane change signal and move back into the right lane.
Page Driving At Night If your vehicle starts to slide, ease your foot off the accelerator pedal and quickly steer the way you want the vehicle to go. If you start steering quickly enough, your vehicle may straighten out. Always be ready for a second skid if it occurs. Page Here are some tips on night driving. Drive defensively. Adjust your inside rearview mirror to reduce the glare from headlamps behind you. Page Driving too fast through large water puddles or even going through some car washes can cause problems, too.
The water may affect your brakes. Try to avoid puddles. The best advice is to slow down when it is raining. Page City Driving One of the biggest problems with city streets is the amount of traffic on them. Here are ways to increase your safety in city driving: Know the best way to get to where you are going.
Page Freeway Driving Freeway Driving Mile for mile, freeways also called thruways, parkways, expressways, turnpikes or superhighways are the safest of all roads. But they have their own special rules. The most important advice on freeway driving is: Keep up with traffic and keep to the right. Drive at the same speed most of the other drivers are driving.
Or is it just plain falling asleep at the wheel? Call it highway hypnosis, lack of awareness, or whatever. There is something about an easy stretch of road with the same scenery, along with the hum of the tires on the road, the drone of the engine, and the rush of the wind against the vehicle that can make you sleepy. Your brakes will have to do all the work of slowing down.
You would then have poor braking or even none going down a hill. Page Winter Driving Here are some tips for winter driving: Have your vehicle in good shape for winter. You may want to put winter emergency supplies in your vehicle. Include an ice scraper, a small brush or broom, a supply of windshield washer fluid, a rag, some winter outer clothing, a small shovel, a flashlight, a red cloth and reflective warning triangles.
However, if there is snow or ice between your tires and the road, you can have a very slippery situation.
Put on extra clothing or wrap a blanket around you. If you have no blankets or extra clothing, make body insulators from newspapers, burlap bags, rags, floor mats anything you can wrap around yourself or tuck under your clothing to keep warm.

Gasolines meeting these specifications could provide improved driveability and emission control system performance compared to other gasolines. Page Fuels In Foreign Countries Additives Some gasolines that are not reformulated for low emissions may contain an octane enhancing additive called methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl MMT ; ask the attendant where you buy gasoline whether the fuel contains MMT.
General Motors does not recommend the use of such gasolines. Fuels containing MMT can reduce the life of spark plugs and the performance of the emission control system may be affected. It burns violently, and that can cause very bad injuries. Keep sparks, flames and smoking materials away from gasoline. Gasoline can spray out on you if you open the fuel cap too quickly.
This spray can happen if your tank is nearly full, and is more likely in hot weather. Static electricity discharge from the container can ignite the gasoline vapor.
