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 ªACCº or ªONº position.
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF
Push ªPWR/VOLº or ªPWR´VOLº to turn
the audio system on and off.
Push ªAMº, ªFM1´2º, ªTAPEº, ªCDº or
ªAUXº to turn on that function without
pushing ªPWR/VOLº or ªPWR´VOLº.
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 another function was pre-
viously playing, it will come on again.
SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS
Push ªAMº, ªFM1´2º, ªTAPEº, ªCDº or
ªAUXº if the system is already on but you
want to switch from one function to anoth-
er. 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.
YOUR RADIO ANTENNA
To remove the antenna, carefully turn it
counterclockwise.
To lower the power antenna, turn off the
audio system by pushing ªPWR/VOLº or
ªPWR´VOLº, or turn the ignition key to
ªLOCKº.

(Eject button)
Push this button to eject a compact disc.
After you turn the ignition to ªLOCKº, you
will be able to eject a disc but you will
not be able to reinsert it.
DISC IN (Disc indicator)
When the compact disc is inserted, the
disc indicator on the right side of ªDISC
INº turns on.NOTICE
To ensure the correct audio system operation:
Be careful not to spill beveragesover the audio system.
Do not put anything other than acassette tape or Compact Disc into
the slot.
The use of cellular phone inside ornear the vehicle may cause a noise
from the speakers of the audio sys-tem which you are listening to.However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception
does not mean there is a problem with
your radioÐit is just the normal result of
conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and terrain
can interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can interfere with
AM signals. And of course, radio signals
have a limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal will
be. In addition, reception conditions
change constantly as your vehicle moves. Here are some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a prob-
lem with your radio:
FM
Fading and drifting stationsÐGenerally, 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±pathÐFM 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 flutteringÐThese occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees, or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swappingÐIf 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.
