TOYOTA LAND CRUISER 2001 Repair Manual

Here are some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a prob-
lem 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
notice fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio transmit-
ter. They are often accompanied by distor-
tion.
Multi
−path—FM signals are reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time. If this
happens, the signals will cancel each oth-
er out, causing a momentary flutter or
loss of reception.
Static and fluttering—These occur when
signals 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 weak-
ened, and there is another strong station
nearby on the FM band, your radio may
tune in the second station until the origi-
nal 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 sta-
tion, 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 broad-
cast.
Static—AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static.
CARING FOR YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER
AND TAPES
For the best performance for your cas-
sette player and tapes:
Clean the tape head and other parts regu-
larly.
A dirty tape head or tape path can
decrease sound quality and tangle your
cassette 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,
inconsistent 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
damaged 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 play-
ing time longer than 100 minutes (50
minutes per side). The tape used in
these cassettes is thin and could get
stuck or tangled in the cassette player.

CARING FOR YOUR COMPACT DISC
PLAYER AND DISCS Use only compact discs labeled as
shown. CD −R (CD −Recordable), CD −
RW (CD −Re −writable) and personal
computer use CD −ROMs may not be
playable on your compact disc player.
Your compact disc player is intended
for use with 12cm (4.7 in.) discs only.
Extremely high temperatures can keep
your compact disc player from working.
On hot days, use the air conditioning
to cool the vehicle interior before you
listen to a disc.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your compact disc player skip.
If moisture gets into your compact disc
player, you may not hear any sound
even though your compact disc player
appears to be working. Remove the
disc from the player and wait until it
dries.

’01 L/C U (L/O 0008)143

Your automatic changer or compact
disc player cannot play special shaped
or low −quality compact discs such as
those shown here. Do not use them as
the player could be damaged.
Handle compact discs carefully, espe-
cially when you are inserting them.
Hold them on the edge and do not
bend them. Avoid getting fingerprints
on them, particularly on the shiny side.
Dirt, scrapes, warping, pin holes, or
other disc damage could cause the
player to skip or to repeat a section of
a track. (To see a pin hole, hold the
disc up to the light.)
Remove discs from the compact disc
player when you are not listening to
them. Store them in their plastic cases
away from moisture, heat, and direct
sunlight.
To clean a compact disc: Wipe it with a
soft, lint −free cloth that has been damp-
ened with water. Wipe in a straight line
from the center to the edge of the disc
(not in circles). Dry it with another soft,
lint −free cloth. Do not use a conventional
record cleaner or anti −static device.
CAUTION
Compact disc players use an invisible
laser beam which could cause hazard-
ous radiation exposure if directed out-
side the unit. Be sure to operate the
player correctly.

−off system
In response to a severe impact which
may cause a large amount of vehicle
deformation, the fuel pump shut −off
system stops supplying fuel to the en-
gine to minimize the risk of fuel leak- age.
The fuel pump shut −off system activates
when the impact detection sensor located
in the footwell of the driver’s seat detects
an impact larger than specified.

If the fuel pump shut
−off system has acti-
vated, you can turn on the fuel pump
shut −off system with the reset switch on
the impact detection sensor. To turn on
the fuel pump and reset the shut −off
switch, push the reset switch for longer
than one second with the vehicle parked
on a level surface.
CAUTION
 Inspect the ground under the ve-
hicle before resetting the fuel
pump shut −off system. If you
find liquid leakage on the
ground, it is probable that the
fuel system has been damaged
and is in need of repair. In this
case, do not reset the fuel pumpshut −off system.
 Do not strike or kick the impact
detection sensor. The fuel pumpshut −off system may activate,
shutting off the motor and plac-
ing the vehicle in a position to
be involved in an unexpected ac-
cident.
The fuel pump shut −off system is de-
signed to activate in a collision which may
cause a large amount of vehicle deforma-
tion. It does not operate in a small im-
pact. Rear console box

Garage door opener
Indicator light
Buttons
The garage door opener ( HomeLink
Universal Transceiver) is manufactured un-
der license from HomeLink 
and can be
programmed to operate garage doors,
gates, entry doors, door locks, home light-
ing systems, and security systems, etc.
(a) Programming the HomeLink 
The HomeLink 
in your vehicle has 3
buttons and you can store one program
for each button.
To ensure correct programming into the
HomeLink 
, install a new battery in the
hand −held transmitter prior to program-
ming. The battery side of the hand
−held trans-
mitter must be pointed away from the
HomeLink 
during the programming pro-
cess.
For Canadian users, follow the procedure
in “Programming an entrance gate/Pro-
gramming all devices in the Canadian
market”.
1. Decide which of 3 HomeLink 
buttons
you want to program.
2. Place your hand −held garage transmit-
ter 25 to 75 mm (1 to 3 in.) away from
the surface of the HomeLink 
.
Keep the indicator light on the
HomeLink 
in view while programming.
3. Simultaneously press and hold the hand −held garage transmitter button
along with the selected HomeLink 
but-
ton.
4. When the indicator light on the Home- Link 
changes from a slow to a rapid
flash after 20 seconds, you can release
both buttons.
5. Test the operation of the HomeLink 
by
pressing the newly programmed button.
If programming a garage door opener,
check to see if the garage door opens
and closes.
