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 igni-
tion key is in the ACCº or ONº position.
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF
Push PWR V VOLº or PWR/VOLº to turn
the audio system on and off.
Push AM V FMº or TAPEº or CDº to turn
on that function without pushing PWR V
VOLº or PWR/VOLº.
You can turn on the cassette player by in-
serting a cassette tape.
You can turn off the cassette player by
ejecting the cassette tape. If the audio
system was previously off, then the entire
audio system will be turned off when you
eject the cassette tape. If the radio was
previously on, it will come on again.
SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS
Push AM V FMº , TAPEº or CDº 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 pro-
grams usually sound better with different
mixes of treble 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

Mast type antenna:
To prevent damage to the anten-
na, make sure it is retracted before
driving your Toyota through an
automatic car wash.
On-glass antenna (built-in on the
rear window glass):
Attaching the film (especially con-
ductive or metalic type) on the
rear glass will noticeably reduce
the sensitivity of the radio.
NOTICE
YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER
When you insert a cassette, the exposed
tape should be to the right.
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.
