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 (). If no
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)
Turn the knob clockwise to step up the
frequency. Turn the knob counterclockwise
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.

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”.
