the area of the windshield in front of the front camera.
• If the inner side of the windshield where the front camera is installed is
dirty, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
O If the part of the windshield in front of the front camera is fogged up or cov-
ered with condensation, or ice, use the windshield defogger to remove the
fog, condensation, or ice. ( P. 435, 443)
O If water droplets cannot be properly removed from the area of the wind-
shield in front of the front camera by the windshield wipers, replace the
wiper insert or wiper blade.

Winter driving tips
OUse fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside tempera-
tures.
• Engine oil
• Engine coolant
• Washer fluid
O Have a service technician inspect the condition of the battery.
O Have the vehicle fitted with four snow tires or purchase a set of tire
chains for the rear tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and brand, and that chains match
the size of the tires.
Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
O Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen.
Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
O To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
O Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accu-
mulated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the
tires or on the brakes.
O Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before
getting in the vehicle.

Q Lens cleaners
Do not use lens cleaners. Doing so may damage the CD player.
Q MP3, WMA and AAC files
MP3 (MPEG Audio LAYER3) is a standard audio compression format.
Files can be compressed to approximately 1/10 of their original size by using
MP3 compression.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a Microsoft audio compression format.
This format compresses audio data to a size smaller than that of the MP3 for-
mat.
AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding and refers to an audio compression
technology standard used with MPEG2 and MPEG4.
There is a limit to the MP3, WMA and AAC file standards and to the media/
formats recorded by them that can be used.
O MP3 file compatibility
• Compatible standards
MP3 (MPEG1 LAYER3, MPEG2 LSF LAYER3)
• Compatible sampling frequencies

Audio system
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
O MP3, WMA and AAC playback
When a disc containing MP3, WMA or AAC files is inserted, all files on the
disc are first checked. Once the file check is finished, the first MP3, WMA or
AAC file is played. To make the file check finish more quickly, we recom-
mend you do not write in any files other than MP3, WMA or AAC files or
create any unnecessary folders.
If the discs contain a mixture of music data and MP3, WMA or AAC format
data, only music data can be played.
O Extensions
If the file extensions .mp3, .wma and .m4a are used for files other than
MP3, WMA and AAC files, they will be mistakenly recognized and played
as MP3, WMA and AAC files. This may result in large amounts of interfer-
ence and damage to the speakers.
O Playback
• To play MP3 file with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit rate
of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
• CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW playback may not be possible in some
instances, depending on the characteristics of the disc.
• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for MP3,
WMA and AAC files on the market, and depending on the status of the
encoding and the file format, poor sound quality or noise at the start of
playback may result. In some cases, playback may not be possible at all.
• When files other than MP3, WMA or AAC files are recorded on a disc, it
may take more time to recognize the disc and in some cases, playback
may not be possible at all.
