TRAF (Traffic)
This button turns the traffic announcement
(TA) feature on and off.
By pushing “< >” button, “TRAF” appears
on the display and the radio will start
seeking any traffic program station.
When a traffic program station is found,
“TRAF” will be displayed (
traffic program stations are found, “No
Traffic” will appear on the display.
After the traffic announcement program is
over, the display returns to the previous
mode.
If no traffic program station is found, “No
Traffic” will appear on the display for 5
seconds and the display returns to the
previous mode. If the “TRAF” button is
pushed when the compact disc player is
on, the radio will start seeking traffic pro-
gram stations.
When a “TA” is received, the radio stores
the volume of the previous mode and ad-
justs the volume to the previous interrupt
volume. During the traffic announcement,
you can adjust the volume using the
“PWR/VOL”.The adjusted volume will be used as the
new default interrupt volume. The interrupt
volume has a minimum default setting.
The stored interrupt volume will be the
greater of the current volume and the
minimum default setting. After an interrupt,
the radio system will return to the volume
that was active before the interrupt.
TUNE (Tuning)
Your Toyota has an electronic tuning radio
(ETR). Turn the knob clockwise to step up
the frequency. Turn the knob counterclock-
wise to step down the frequency.NOTICE
To ensure correct audio system op-
erations:
Be careful not to spill beverages
over the audio system.
Do not put anything other than a
cassette tape or Compact Disc into
the slot.
The use of a cellular phone inside
or near the vehicle may cause a
noise from the speakers of the au-
dio system 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 radio—it 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.

The digital clock indicates the time
when the key is in the “ACC” or “ON”
position. Even when the ignition switch
is off, you can turn on the clock dis-
play for a few seconds by pushing the
“RCL” button.
Type A—To set the time, push and hold
the “HR” or “MIN” button until the “:”
starts flashing. Then set the time by push-
ing the “HR” (hour) and the “MIN” (minute)
buttons. If the time is before 12 noon,
“AM” appears on the display when the
time being set.
Type B—To set the time, push and hold
the “H” or “M” button until the “:” starts
flashing. Then set the time by pushing the
“H” (hour) and the “M” (minute) buttons.
When the time is being set, “AM” or “PM”
appears on the display.
RDS CLOCK UPDATE FUNCTION
You can update the clock with RDS
(Radio Data System) data. Push and hold
the “HR” and “MIN” (type A) or “H” and
“M” (type B) buttons at least 2 seconds
while receiving an RDS station. “TIME
UPDATED” will appear on the display with
a beep and the clock will be updated. If
setting could not be completed
successfully, “NO UPDATED” will appear
on the display.
CIGARETTE LIGHTER
To use the cigarette lighter, press it in.
After it finishes heating up, it automati-
cally pops out ready for use.
If the engine is not running, the key must
be in the “ACC” position.
Do not hold the cigarette lighter pressed
in.
Use a Toyota genuine cigarette lighter or
equivalent for replacement.

Close the power outlet lid when the
power outlet is not in use. Inserting
a foreign object other than the ap-
propriate plug that fits the outlet
may cause electrical failure or short
circuits.
The power outlet is not designed for
the following electric appliances even
though their power consumption is un-
der 115 VAC/100W. These appliances
may not operate properly.
Appliances with high initial peak watt-
age: cathode ray tube type televisions,
compressor driven refrigerators, electric
pumps, electric tools, etc.
Measuring devices which process pre-
cise data: medical equipment, measur-
ing instruments, etc.
Other appliances requiring an extremely
stable power supply: microcomputer
controlled electric blankets, touch sen-
sor lamps, etc.
Certain electrical appliances may cause
radio noise.
The direction is indicated on the inside
rear view mirror.
If the ignition switch was turned off with
the system on, the system will automati-
cally turn back on when the ignition switch
is turned on.
To turn on the compass, push and hold
the “
” switch until the display turns
on.
To turn off the compass, push and hold
the “
” switch until the display turns
off. The compass indicates the direction
that the vehicle is heading. In the
above case, it shows that the vehicle is
heading north.

The vehicle is on an inclined surface.

The vehicle is in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
The vehicle is magnetized. (There is a
magnet or a metal object on or near
the inside rear view mirror.)
The battery has been disconnected.
Your vehicle is out of the set zone. Refer
to the “CALIBRATING THE COMPASS” be-
low to set the zone number.
The compass works to calibrate the direc-
tion automatically while the vehicle is in
motion, if deviation is small.
For additional precision or for complete
calibrating, see “CALIBRATING THE
COMPASS” below.
Compass sensor
The compass sensor is in the inside
rear view mirror.
NOTICE
Do not put magnets or a metal object
on or near the inside rear view mirror
of the vehicle. Doing this may cause
malfunction of the compass sensor.
CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (deviation
calibration)
The direction display on the compass
deviates from the true direction deter-
mined by the earth’s magnetic field. The
angle of deviation varies according to the
geographic position of the vehicle.
To adjust this deviation, stop the vehicle,
then push and hold the both personal light
switches until the zone number appears
on the display. Then push the right side
or left side personal light switch, referring
to the following map to select the number
of the zone where the vehicle is.

After calibration, leaving the system for
several seconds returns it to the compass
mode.

Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling
calibration)
Sometimes the direction display on the
compass may not change after a turn. To
rectify this, stop the vehicle and push and
hold the both personal light switches until
“C” appears on the display.
If “C” appears on the display because of
a drastic change in the magnetic field,
perform circling calibration.Drive the vehicle in a circle at 8 km/h (5
mph) or less. If there is not enough space
to drive in a circle, drive around the
block.
After driving 1 to 3 circles in the above
method, calibration is completed when the
direction is shown on the display.
If calibration cannot be performed because
of the magnetized vehicle etc., take your
vehicle to Toyota dealer.Perform circling calibration just after
you have purchased your Toyota. And
then always perform circling calibration
after the battery has been removed, re-
placed or disconnected.
Do not perform circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
During calibration, do not operate elec-
tric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with
the calibration.

be sure to secure a wide space,
and watch out for people and ve-
hicles in the neighborhood. Do not
violate any local traffic rules while
performing circling calibration.
Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
