Push the switch once again to turn the
defoggers off.
The system will automatically shut off af-
ter the defoggers have operated about 15
minutes.
CAUTION

defoggers, since the mirror surfaces
can get hot, do not touch them when
the defogger switch is on.
Make sure you turn the defoggers off
when the surfaces are clear or the wiper
blades have de−iced. Leaving the defog-
gers on for a long time could cause the
battery to discharge, especially during
stop −and− go driving. The defoggers are
not designed for drying rain water or for
melting snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavi-
ly coated with ice, use a spray de −icer
before operating the switch.
NOTICE

TONE AND BALANCE
For details about your system’s tone and
balance controls, see the description of
your own system.
SRS (type 1 and 2 −1)
The audio systems utilize SRS FOCUS 
and SRS TruBass audio enhancement
technologies, under license from SRS
Labs, Inc., in all modes except AM radio
mode.
FOCUS, TruBass, SRS and
 symbols
are trademarks of SRS Labs, Inc.
FOCUS and TruBass technologies are
incorporated under license from SRS
Labs, Inc. Tone
How good an audio program sounds to
you is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, midrange (type 2
−2) and bass
levels. In fact, different kinds of music
and vocal programs usually sound better
with different 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
Your vehicle has the mast type antenna or
on− glass antenna printed on the inside of
the rear quarter window.
Mast type antenna—To remove an anten-
na, carefully turn it counterclockwise.
NOTICE
 Mast type antenna:
To prevent damage to the antenna,
make sure it is removed before
driving your Toyota through an au-
tomatic car wash.
 Onglass antenna:
Putting a film (especially a conduc-
tive or metallic film) on the rear
window will noticeably reduce the
sensitivity of the radio.
YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER (type 1)
When you insert a disc, gently push it in
with the label side up. The player will play
from track 1 through to the end of the
disc. Then it will play from track 1 again.
NOTICE
Never try to disassemble or oil any
part of the compact disc player. Do
not insert anything other than com-
pact discs into the slot.
The player is intended for use with 12 cm
(4.7 in.) discs only.

To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint−
free cloth that has been dampened 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. MP3/WMA FILES
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA
(Windows Media Audio) are audio com-
pression standards.
The MP3/WMA player can play MP3
and WMA files on CD
−ROM, CD −R and
CD− RW discs.
The unit can play disc recordings com-
patible with ISO 9660 level 1 and level
2 and with the Romeo and Joliet file
system.
When naming an MP3 or WMA file,
add the appropriate file extension (.mp3
or .wma).
The MP3/WMA player plays back files
with .mp3 or .wma file extensions as
MP3 or WMA files. To prevent noise
and playback errors, use the appropri-
ate file extensions.
Multi −session compatible CDs can also
be played.
MP3 files are compatible with the ID3
Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2, and
Ver. 2.3 formats. The unit cannot dis-
play disc title, track title and artist
name in other formats.
WMA files can contain a WMA tag that
is used in the same way as an ID3
tag. WMA tags carry information such
as track title, artist name.
The emphasis function is available only
when playing MP3/WMA files recorded
at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. (The system
can play MP3 files with sampling fre-
quencies of 16, 22.05, and 24 kHz.
However, the emphasis function is not
available for files recorded at these fre-
quencies.)
The sound quality of MP3/WMA files
generally improves with higher bit
rates. In order to achieve a reasonable
level of sound quality, discs recorded
with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps are
recommended.
Playable bit rates
MP3 files:
MPEG1 LAYER3—64 to 320 kbps
MPEG2 LSF LAYER3—64 to 160 kbps
WMA files:
Ver. 7, 8 CBR—48 to 192 kbps
Ver. 9 CBR—48 to 320 kbps

Recordings on CD−R/CD− RW cannot
be played using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system.
TERMS
Packet write—
This is a general term that describes the
process of writing data on −demand to
CD− R, etc., in the same way that data is
written to floppy or hard di scs.
ID3 Tag—
This is a method of embedding track −re-
lated information in an MP3 file. This em-
bedded information can include the track
title, the artist’s name, the album title, the
music genre, the year of production, com-
ments and other data. The contents can
be freely edited using software with ID3
tag editing functions. Although the tags
are restricted to the number of characters,
the information can be viewed when the
track is played back.
WMA Tag—
WMA files can contain a WMA tag that is
used in the same way as an ID3 tag.
WMA tags carry information such as track
title, artist name. ISO 9660 format—
This is the international standard for the
formatting of CD
−ROM folders and files.
For the ISO 9660 format, there are two
levels of regulations.
Level 1:
The file name is in 8.3 format (8 charac-
ter file names, with a 3 character file
extension. File names must be composed
of one −byte capital letters and numbers.
The “_” symbol may also be included.)
Level 2:
The file name can have up to 31 charac-
ters (including the separation mark “.” and
file extension). Each folder must contain
fewer than 8 hierarchies.
m3u—
Playlists created using “WINAMP” software
have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
MP3—
MP3 is an audio compression standard
determined by a working group (MPEG) of
the ISO (International Standard Organiza-
tion). MP3 compresses audio data to
about 1/10 the size of that on convention-
al discs. WMA—
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio
compression format developed by Micro-
soft. It compresses files into a size small-
er than that of MP3 files. The decoding
formats for WMA files are Ver. 7, 8, and
9.

To cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open for a few minutes.
This vents the hot air, allowing the air
conditioning to cool the interior more
quickly.
Make sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).
On humid days, do not blow cold air
on the windshield. The windshield could
fog up because of the difference in air
temperature on the inside and outside
of the windshield.
Keep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
On cold days, set the fan speed to
high for a minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This
can reduce the amount of fogging on
the windows.
When driving on dusty roads, close all
windows. If dust thrown up by the ve-
hicle is still drawn into the vehicle after
closing the windows, it is recommended
that the air intake selector be set to
FRESH and the fan speed selector to
any setting except “OFF”.
