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 ACCº or ONº position.
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF
Push PWR´VOLº to turn the audio system
on and off.
Push AMº, FMº, TAPEº, DISCº or
LOADº to turn on that function without
pushing PWR´VOLº. To turn on the cas-
sette or compact disc player, a cassette
or compact disc must be loaded in the
player.
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 other function was pre-
viously playing, it will come on again.
SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS
Push AMº, FMº, TAPEº, DISCº or
LOADº 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.
