DVD VIDEO DISC GLOSSARY
DVD video discs: Digital versatile Disc
that holds video. DVD video discs have
adopted “MPEG2”, one of the world stan-
dards of digital compression technologies.
The picture data is compressed by 1/40 on
average and stored. Variable rate en-
coded technology in which the volume of
data assigned to the picture is changed de-
pending on the picture format has also
been adopted. Audio data is stored using
PCM and Dolby digital, which enables
higher quality of sound. Furthermore, mul-
ti−angle and multi−language features will
also help you enjoy the more advanced
technology of DVD video.
Viewer restrictions: This feature limits
what can be viewed in conformity with a
level of restrictions of the country. The lev-
el of restrictions varies depending on the
DVD video disc. Some DVD video discs
cannot be played at all, or violent scenes
are skipped or replaced with other scenes.
Level 1: DVD video discs for children can
be played.
Level 2 − 7: DVD video discs for children
and G−rated movie can be played.
Level 8: All types of the DVD video discs
can be played.
Multiangle feature: You can enjoy the
same scene at different angles.
Multilanguage feature: You can select a
language of the subtitle and audio.
Region codes: The region codes are pro-
vided on DVD players and DVD discs. If
the DVD video disc does not have the
same region code as the DVD player, you
cannot play the disc on the DVD player.
For region codes, see page 230.
Audio: This DVD player can play liner
PCM, Dolby digital and MPEG audio for-
mat DVD. Other decoded type cannot be
played.

grams stored in DVD video disc are divid-
ed in parts by title and chapter.Title: The largest unit of the video and au-
dio programs stored on DVD video discs.

NOTICE
To ensure correct audio/video
system operations:
Be careful not to spill beverages
over the audio system.
Do not put anything other than a
compact disc into the slot.
Do not put anything other than an
appropriate disc into the DVD play-
er.
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 condi-
tions 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:

AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM

FM
Fading and drifting stations — Generally,
the effective range of FM is about 40 km
(25 miles). Once outside this range, you
may notice fading and drifting, which in-
crease with the distance from the radio
transmitter. They are often accompanied
by distortion.
Multi−path — FM signals are reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time. If this hap-
pens, the signals will cancel each other
out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of
reception.
Static and fluttering — These occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees, or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping — If the FM signal you
are listening to is interrupted or weakened,
and there is another strong station nearby
on the FM band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original signal can
be picked up again.
AM
Fading — AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere — especially at
night. These reflected signals can inter-
fere with those received directly from the
radio station, causing the radio station to
sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference — When a reflected
signal and a signal received directly from
a radio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
Static — AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static.XM∗
Alternation or modifications carried out
without appropriate authorization may in-
validate the user’s right to operate the
equipment.
∗: Use of satellite radio requires XM tuner
and service. Contact your Toyota dealer
for details.
CARING FOR YOUR CD CHANGER,
DVD PLAYER AND DISCS
Your CD changer is intended for use
with 12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.
Extremely high temperatures can keep
your CD changer and DVD player from
working. On hot days, use the air
conditioning to cool the vehicle interior
before you use the changer and player.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your CD changer and DVD play-
er skip.
If moisture gets into your CD changer
and DVD player, you may not play even
though they appear to be working. Re-
move the disc from the changer and
player and wait until it dries.
CAUTION
CD changers and DVD player use an
invisible laser beam which could
cause hazardous radiation exposure
if directed outside the unit. Be sure to
operate the changers and players
correctly.

Handle discs carefully, especially
when you are inserting them. Hold
them on the edge and do not bend the-
m. Avoid getting fingerprints on them,
particularly on the shiny side.
Dirt, scratches, warping, pin holes, or
other disc damage could cause the
player to skip or to repeat a section of
a track. (To see a pin hole, hold the disc
up to the light.)
Remove discs from the players when
you are not using them. Store them in
their plastic cases away from moisture,
heat, and direct sunlight.
6U5B98X
To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint−
free cloth that has been dampened with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the cen-
ter to the edge of the disc (not in circles).
Dry it with another soft, lint−free cloth. Do
not use a conventional record cleaner or
anti−static device.
