Reference
AM·FM radio/cassette player/compact disc
changer controller/compact disc player
with changer
This section describes some of the basic
features on Toyota audio systems. Some
information may not pertain to your sys-
tem.
Your audio system works when the ignition
key is in the ”ACC” or ”ON” position.
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF
Push ”PWR·VOL” to turn the audio system
on and off.
Push ”AM”, ”FM”, ”TAPE” or ”DISC” to
turn on that function without pushing
”PWR·VOL”.
You can turn on each player by inserting
a cassette tape or compact disc.
You can turn off each player by ejecting
the cassette tape or compact disc. If the
audio system was previously off, then the
entire audio system will be turned off
when you eject the cassette tape or com-
pact disc. If the another function was pre-
viously playing, it will come on again.
SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS
Push ”AM”, ”FM”, ”TAPE” or ”DISC” if the
system is already on but you want to
switch from one function to another.TONE AND BALANCE
For details about your system’s tone and
balance controls, see the description of
your own system.
Tone
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 differ-
ent mixes of treble, midrange, and bass.
Balance
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound
levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to
a stereo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the vol-
ume of one group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another.

YOUR RADIO ANTENNA
Lowering the antenna
The antenna automatically extends when
the radio is on or the radio system is on,
and retracts when the radio mode is off.
However, even if you turn off the radio
when the radio on the rear seat audio
system is on, the antenna does not re-
tract. To lower a power antenna, push the
” ” (down) switch. Also, the antenna au-
tomatically goes down when the radio
mode is switched off to turn on the cas-
sette tape player or compact disc player,
turning off the audio system by pushing
”PWR·VOL” or turning the ignition key to
”LOCK” position.
Some models also have an antenna
printed on the inside of the right side
quarter window.NOTICE
 To prevent damage to the antenna,
make sure it is retracted before
driving your Toyota through an au-
tomatic car wash.
 The antenna mast has to be ex-
tended higher than 100 mm (3.94
in.) length when the audio is on.
Extend the antenna mast when the
radio signal is weak.
 Putting a window tint (especially,
conductive or meta llic type) on the
righthand rear quarter window may
affect the reception of radio or mo-
bile telephone. For the installation
of the window tint, consult with
your Toyota dealer.
Down Up
Adjusting the power antenna
To adjust the antenna height, push the
switch.
Confirm that no one is close enough to
get pushed before extending the antenna.
Clean the antenna mast periodically with
a clean dry cloth.

the changer. You can also eject any spe-
cific one of the discs loaded in the player
as follows:
1. Push either side of the “DISC” button until the number of the disc you want
to eject is displayed.
2. Push and release the compact disc eject button.

pletely, the cassette player will play the
other side of the tape, using the autore-
verse feature.

driving, the system adjusts to the optimum
volume and tone quality according to the
noise level. While the automatic sound
levelizer is on, ”ASL” appears on the dis-
play. Manual tuning function—
Turn the knob. The radio will step up or
down to another frequency.

When the audio is set into compact disc
operation, the display shows the track or,
track and disc number currently being
played.
If the player or another unit equipped with
the player malfunctions, your audio system
will display one of the three following er-
ror messages.
If “WAIT” appears on the display,
it indi-
cates that the inside of the player unit
may be too hot due to the very high ambi-
ent temperature. Remove the disc from
the player and allow the player to cool
down.
If “Err 1” appears on the display, it
indicates the disc is dirty, damaged or
label face down. Clean the disc or insert
it correctly.

playing, ”NO TITLE” will appear on the
display.
If the entire disc or track title does not
appear on the display, push and hold the
button until you hear a beep. The rest of
the title will appear.
