Using your audio system —
— Some basics
This section describes some of the basic fea-
tures of your audio system. Some information
may not pertain to your system.
Your audio system works when the ignition
switch is in the “ACC” or “ON” position.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being dis-
charged, do not leave the audio system
on longer than necessary when the en-
gine is not running.

TAPE (See page 124)
CD (See page 126)
DVD (See page 130)
The switches for radio, cassette tape and
disc player operation are displayed on the
function switch display screen when the
audio control mode is selected. Touch
them lightly and directly on the screen.
The selected switch is highlighted in green or
yellow.
INFORMATION
If the system does not respond to a
touch of a switch, move your finger
away from the screen and then touch
it again.
You cannot operate dimmed
switches.
Wipe off fingerprints on the surface of
the display using a glass cleaning
cloth.
(b) Tone and balance
How good an audio program sounds to you is
largely determined by the mix of the treble,
midrange, and bass levels. In fact, different
kinds of music and vocal programs usually
sound better with different mixes of treble,
mid−range, and bass.
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound lev-
els is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to a ste-
reo recording or broadcast, changing the
right/left balance will increase the volume of
one group of sounds while decreasing the vol-
ume of another.

120
Touching the “SOUND” switch displayed
on the screen at the audio control mode
will display the sound control mode. Ad-
just the tone and balance as follows.
To adjust the tone, touch the “+” or “”
switch on the screen. To adjust the bal-
ance between the front and rear speakers,
touch the “FRONT” or “REAR” switch on
the screen, and to adjust the balance be-
tween the left and right, touch the “L” or
“R” switch on the screen.
“BASS”: Adjusts low−pitched tones.
“MID”: Adjusts mid−pitched tones.
“TREB”: Adjusts high−pitched tones.
As the yellow display goes up, each tone is
more emphasized.(c) Your radio antenna
Mast type antenna—
To remove: Turn it counterclockwise carefully.
To install: Turn it clockwise securely.
NOTICE
Mast type antenna:
To prevent damage to the antenna,
make sure it is removed before driv-
ing your Toyota through an automat-
ic car wash.
Onglass antenna (builtin on the
rear quarter glass):
Attaching the film (especially con-
ductive or metallic type) on the rear
quarter glass will noticeably reduce
the sensitivity of the radio.
(d) Your cassette player
When you insert a cassette, the exposed tape
should face to the right.
NOTICE
Do not oil any part of the player and do
not insert anything other than cassette
tapes into the slot, or the tape player
may be damaged.
(e) Your compact disc player with chang-
er
When you insert a disc, push the “LOAD” but-
ton and gently push the disc in with the label
side up. (The player will automatically eject
a disc if the label side is down.) This compact
disc player can store up to six discs. The play-
er will play from track 1 through the end of the
disc. Then it will play from track 1 of the next
disc.
The player is intended for use with 12 cm (4.7
in.) discs only.

121
NOTICE
Do not stack up two discs for inser-
tion, or it will cause damage to the
compact disc player with changer. In-
sert only one compact disc into slot
at a time.

— Radio operation
(a) Listening to the radio
Push these buttons to choose either an
AM or FM station.
“AM”, “FM1” or “FM2” appears on the screen.
Turn the knob clockwise to step up the sta-
tion band or counterclockwise to step
down.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the screen. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the
amount of channel separation to prevent the
weak signal from creating noise. If the signal
becomes extremely weak, the radio switches
from stereo to mono reception. In this case,
“ST” disappears from the screen.

button again.(d) Radio Data System
Your audio system is equipped with Radio
Data Systems (RDS). RDS mode provides
you to receive text messages from radio sta-
tions that utilize RDS transmitters.
When RDS is on, the radio can
— only select stations of a particular program
type,
— display messages from radio stations,
— search for a stronger signal station.
RDS features are available for the use only on
FM stations which broadcast RDS informa-
tion.

hold it to display the rest of the message.
When the system can show the station name,
“RDS” appears on the display. Each time you
touch the “MSG” switch, indication on the dis-
play changes from the band to the station
name, a radio text in this order. After six sec-
onds passes, indication returns to the band.

Audio system operating hints
NOTICE
To ensure correct audio system opera-
tion:
Be careful not to spill beverages over
the system.
Do not put anything other than a cas-
sette tape or compact disc into the
slot.
Do not put anything other than an ap-
propriate disc into the DVD player.
The use of a cellular phone inside or
near the vehicle may cause a noise
from the speakers of the system
which you are listening to. However,
this does not indicate a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception does
not mean there is a problem with your radio —
it is just the normal result of conditions outside
the vehicle.

147 For example, nearby buildings and terrain
can interfere with FM reception. Power lines
or telephone wires can interfere with AM sig-
nals. And of course, radio signals have a lim-
ited range. The farther you are from a station,
the weaker its signal will be. In addition, re-
ception conditions change constantly as your
vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception problems
that probably do not indicate a problem with
your radio:
FM
Fading and drifting stations — Generally, the
effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may no-
tice fading and drifting, which increase with
the distance from the radio transmitter. They
are often accompanied by distortion.
Multi−path — FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for two signals to reach your an-
tenna at the same time. If this happens, the
signals will cancel each other out, causing a
momentary flutter or loss of reception.
Static and fluttering — These occur when sig-
nals are blocked by buildings, trees, or other
large objects. Increasing the bass level may
reduce static and fluttering.Station swapping — If the FM signal you are
listening to is interrupted or weakened, and
there is another strong station nearby on the
FM band, your radio may tune in the second
station until the original signal can be picked
up again.
AM
Fading — AM broadcasts are reflected by the
upper atmosphere—especially at night.
These reflected signals can interfere with
those received directly from the radio station,
causing the radio station to sound alternately
strong and weak.
Station interference — When a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a radio
station are very nearly the same frequency,
they can interfere with each other, making it
difficult to hear the broadcast.
Static — AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high ten-
sion power lines, lightening, or electrical mo-
tors. This results in static.CARING FOR YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER
AND TAPES
For the best performance for your cassette
player and tapes:
Clean the tape head and other parts regularly.
A dirty tape head or tape path can de-
crease sound quality and tangle your cas-
sette tapes. The easiest way to clean
them is by using a cleaning tape. (A wet
type is recommended.)
Use high−quality cassettes.
Low−quality cassette tapes can cause
many problems, including poor sound, in-
consistent playing speed, and constant
auto−reversing. They can also get stuck
or tangled in the cassette player.
Do not use a cassette if it has been dam-
aged or tangled or if its label is peeling off.
Do not leave a cassette in the player if you
are not listening to it, especially if it is hot
outside.
Store cassettes in their cases and out of
direct sunlight.
Avoid using cassettes with a total playing
time longer than 100 minutes (50 minutes
per side). The tape used in these cas-
settes is thin and could get stuck or
tangled in the cassette player.
