In addition, the feature may not work well
with some spoken word, live, or classical
recordings.
SRCH (Search)
This feature is available only in RDS
mode.
This button allows you to search all avail-
able RDS stations out of the entire FM
band and sort them by program type (see
“” for details on program
types).
By pushing this button, RDS is turned on
if it was off (“RDS” will display). The radio
is switched to FM type mode. During the
program type search, “SEARCHING....” will
show on the display. Also at this time,
“FM” and “TYPE” will appear on the dis-
play to indicate that the preset buttons are
for program type.
After searching for all available RDS sta-
tions, the radio will activate the previously
used program type. If the previously used
program type is not available, or if the
radio has not yet performed a program
type search, the radio will activate the
first available program type, in alphabeti-
cal order, that has stations in memory.
The radio will preset the stations of the
current program type into the preset but-
tons. If more than 6 stations of a program type
are found, the radio will create a second
bank of presets, such as “Rock 1” and
“Rock 2”. These are accessible through
the “” button. If more than
12 stations are found, the radio will load
the 12 strongest stations signal of the
program type into the presets.
After the search is complete, the radio will
display the number of RDS stations found
for 3 seconds: for example, “Found 19
RDS.” The radio will then display the se-
lected program type for 3 seconds: for
example, “ROCK.” After the program type
has been displayed for 3 seconds, the
radio will display the program type name
for 3 seconds. After that, the radio will
display the program service name.
Day mode (headlights off): The radio will
only display the number of presets that
have a frequency for the selected program
type. For example, if program type Rock
is selected, and there are three rock sta-
tions, only preset numbers 1, 2 and 3 will
be displayed. The remaining preset num-
bers will not be displayed and the remain-
ing preset button(s) will have no function.
Night mode (headlights on): In addition to
the display described for day mode, the
radio will illuminate the jewels of the pre-
sets that have stations available. The re-
maining preset button(s) will have no func-
tion.
A type search in progress can be can-
celed by pushing the following buttons:
“SEEK”, “TUNE”, “SCAN”, “AM”, “FM”, any
preset button, “CD” (if CD mode is avail-
able), “TAPE” (if tape mode is available),
“RDS”, “SRCH”, “”,
“TRAF”, or “LOAD”. If any of these but-
tons is pressed, the search will be can-
celed and the appropriate function started.
Inserting a tape will also cancel the
search.
If no RDS stations are found, “FOUND 0
RDS” will display and the radio will return
to the previous FM mode and frequency.
ST (Stereo reception) display
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the display. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces
the amount of channel separation to prev-
ent the weak signal from creating noise.
If the signal becomes extremely weak, the
radio switches from stereo to mono recep-
tion.

Push “TAPE” to switch from radio or com-
pact disc operation to cassette operation.

loaded in the player.
TRACK (Track up/down button):
Compact disc player
By using this button, you can skip up or
down to a different track.
Push either side of the track button until
the number of the track you want to listen
to appears on the display. If you want to
return to the beginning of the current
track, quickly push the down side of the
button one time.
TRAF (Traffic)
This feature is available only in RDS
mode.
This button turns the traffic announcement
(TA) feature on and off.By pushing this button, RDS is turned on
if it was off (“RDS” will display), and traf-
fic announcement feature is on. “TRAF”
appears on the display when the radio is
tuned to a traffic station. When the traffic
announcement feature is on, “< >” will be
displayed ().
If the current station is not a traffic sta-
tion, the radio will start a traffic program
search in increasing frequency order. Dur-
ing a traffic program search, “Seek Traffic”
will display. If no traffic programs are
found, “No Traf Info” will display.
If the radio receives a traffic announce-
ment, it will interrupt the cassette player
or compact disc mode (if either one was
on), adjust the volume to Traffic An-
nouncement level, and broadcast the traf-
fic announcement. During a traffic an-
nouncement, “TRAFFIC” will appear on the
display. After traffic announcement, it will
return to the previous mode and volume
level.
TA volume memory function—The volume
level when receiving the traffic announce-
ment is memorized.When “TA” is received next time, the sys-
tem compares the volume before “TA” is
received and the memorized TA volume
and automatically selects the louder vol-
ume. However, the range of volume
memory is limited: if the volume received
previously is less than the minimum, this
volume will be used.
You can adjust the volume independently
from the memorized TA volume range
while receiving a TA station.
Traffic announcement can be canceled by
turning RDS off, or pressing the “TRAF”
button again.
TUNE (Tuning)
Your Toyota has an electronic tuning radio
(ETR). Push and release the “
” or “ ”
side of “TUNE” to step up or down the
station band. Do this again to find another
frequency.
If you push and hold the “ ” or “ ” side
of “TUNE”, the radio will continue seeking
up or down for frequencies and will stop
at the next frequency that it finds after the
button is released. Press the button again
to resume the search.

side of the button to adjust the fan speed.
In automatic operation, you do not have
to adjust the fan speed unless you desire
another fan speed mode. Temperature selector
To increase the temperature, press the
“

side.
“MAX COLD” appears when you adjust to
maximum cooling, and “MAX HOT” when

temperature gauge is changed.
“DUAL” button
This switch is used to set the tempera-
tures independently for the driver ’s seat
and front passenger seat.
Pushing the button changes the mode
from independent and linked.
Independent mode: Temperatures can be
set independently for the driver ’s seat and
front passenger ’s seat. “DUAL” will appear
on the display to show that the indepen-
dent mode has been selected.
Linked mode: The same temperature is
set for the driver’s seat and front passen-
ger ’s seat.
When the temperature for the front pas-
senger ’s seat is changed in linked mode,
the mode is changed automatically to in-
dependent mode. Knowledge for the twotemperature se-
lector operation
This air conditioning system has two inde-
pendent temperature selectors: left and
right (for the use of driver and front pas-
senger respectively).
There are cases where the temperature
of the airflow may not accurately corre-
late on the driver and front passenger
side according to circumstances, even
if the left and right temperature selec-
tors are set at the same temperature.
If this situation occurs, use the fine
tune operation to adjust the air temper-
ature on one side.
There are cases where one or both of
the airflow temperatures may not accu-
rately correlate with the set tempera-
ture according to circumstances, when
the airflow temperature settings on the
left and right are substantially different.
For example, if the left controller is set
at central or neutral temperature while
the right one is set at maximum heat-
ing or maximum cooling, or vice versa.
If this situation occurs, use the fine
tune operation to adjust the air temper-
ature on each side.
“OFF” button
Push the “OFF” button to turn off the air
conditioning system.

To prevent fogging up of the windshield,
the air intake mode may change automati-
cally to FRESH depending on the condi-
tion of the air conditioning system.
For example, when the ambient tempera-
ture is low, the air intake mode may
change automatically to FRESH. This is
not a malfunction. “A/C” button
To turn on the air conditioning, press the
“A/C” button. The “A/C” button indicator
will come on. To turn the air conditioning
off, press the button again.
If the “A/C” button indicator flashes, there
is a problem in the air conditioning system
and the air conditioning automatically
shuts off. If this happens, take your ve-
hicle to your Toyota dealer for service.
