AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM
2252008 TUNDRA Navigation from Oct.07 Prod.(OM34469U)
The emphasis function is available only
when playing MP3/WMA files recorded at
32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. (The system can
play MP3 files with sampling frequencies
of 16, 22.05, and 24 kHz. However, the
emphasis function is not available for files
recorded at these frequencies.)
The sound quality of MP3/WMA files gen-
erally improves with higher bit rates. In or-
der to achieve a reasonable level of sound
quality, discs recorded with a bit rate of at
least 128 kbps are recommended.
Playable bit rates
MP3 files:
MPEG1 LAYER3—64 to 320 kbps
MPEG2 LSF LAYER3—64 to 160 kbps
WMA files:
Ver. 7, 8 CBR—48 to 192 kbps
Ver. 9 CBR—48 to 320 kbps
The MP3/WMA player does not play back
MP3/WMA files from discs recorder using
packet write data transfer (UDF format).
Discs should be recorded using “pre−
mastering” software rather than packet−
write software.
M3u playlists are not compatible with the
audio player.
MP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO for-
mats are not compatible with the audio
player.
The MP3 player is compatible with VBR
(Variable Bit Rate).
When playing back files recorded as VBR
(Variable Bit Rate) files, the play time will
not be correctly displayed if fast−forward
or reverse operations are used.
It is not possible to check folders that do
not include MP3/WMA files.
MP3/WMA files in folders up to 8 levels
deep can be played. However, the start of
playback may be delayed when using
discs containing numerous levels of fol-
ders. For this reason, we recommend
creating discs with no more than two lev-
els of folders.
It is possible to play up to 192 folders or
255 files on one disc.

The play order of the compact disc with
the structure shown above is as follows:
MP3 player (rear seat entertainment system)
001.mp3 002.mp3 . . . 006.mp3
MP3/WMA player (front audio system)
001.mp3 002.wma . . . 006.mp3
MP3 player (rear seat entertainment sys-
tem)—It is possible to play up to 253 fold-
ers on one disc.
MP3/WMA player (front audio system)—It
is possible to play up to 192 folders or 255
files on one disc.
The order changes depending on the PC
and MP3/WMA encoding software you
use.CD R and CD RW discs
CD−R/CD−RW discs that have not been
subject to the “finalizing process” (a pro-
cess that allows discs to be played on a
conventional CD player) cannot be
played.
It may not be possible to play CD−R/CD−
RW discs recorded on a music CD record-
er or a personal computer because of disc
characteristics, scratches or dirt on the
disc, or dirt, condensation, etc. on the
lens of the unit.
It may not be possible to play discs re-
corded on a personal computer depend-
ing on the application settings and the en-
vironment. Record with the correct
format. (For details, contact the appropri-
ate application manufacturers of the ap-
plications.)
CD−R/CD−RW discs may be damaged by
direct exposure to sunlight, high tempera-
tures or other storage conditions. The unit
may be unable to play some damaged
discs.
If you insert a CD−RW disc into the
MP3/WMA player, playback will begin
more slowly than with a conventional CD
or CD−R disc.
Recordings on CD−R/CD−RW cannot be
played using the DDCD (Double Density
CD) system.TERMS
Packet write—
This is a general term that describes the pro-
cess of writing data on−demand to CD−R,
etc., in the same way that data is written to
floppy or hard discs.
ID3 Tag—
This is a method of embedding track−related
information in an MP3 file. This embedded in-
formation can include the track title, the art-
ist’s name, the album title, the music genre,
the year of production, comments and other
data. The contents can be freely edited using
software with ID3 tag editing functions. Al-
though the tags are restricted to the number
of characters, the information can be viewed
when the track is played back.
WMA Tag—
WMA files can contain a WMA tag that is used
in the same way as an ID3 tag. WMA tags
carry information such as track title, artist
name.

AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM
2272008 TUNDRA Navigation from Oct.07 Prod.(OM34469U) ISO 9660 format—
This is the international standard for the for-
matting of CD−ROM folders and files. For the
ISO 9660 format, there are two levels of regu-
lations.
Level 1:
The file name is in 8.3 format (8 character file
names, with a 3 character file extension. File
names must be composed of one−byte capi-
tal letters and numbers. The “_” symbol may
also be included.)
Level 2:
The file name can have up to 31 characters
(including the separation mark “.” and file ex-
tension). Each folder must contain fewer than
8 hierarchies.m3u—
Playlists created using “WINAMP” software
have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
MP3—
MP3 is an audio compression standard deter-
mined by a working group (MPEG) of the ISO
(International Standard Organization). MP3
compresses audio data to about 1/10 the size
of that on conventional discs.
WMA—
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio
compression format developed by Microsoft.
It compresses files into a size smaller than
that of MP3 files. The decoding formats for
WMA files are Ver. 7, 8, and 9.

REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM

Rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system assists the
driver by displaying an image of the view
behind the vehicle while backing up. The
left and right displayed on the screen are
the same as those of the inside rear view
mirror.
To display the rear view image on the
screen, place the selector lever in the “R”
position when the engine switch is in the
ON position.
If you move the selector lever out of the “R”
position, the screen returns to the previous
screen. Operating another function of the
navigation system will display another
screen.
The rear view monitor system is a supple-
ment device intended to assist back up.
When backing up, be sure to check behind
and all around the vehicle visually.CAUTION
Never depend on the rear view
monitor system entirely when
backing up. Always make sure your
intended path is clear.
Use caution just as you would when
backing up any vehicle.
Never back up while looking only at
the screen. The image on the screen
is different from actual conditions.
Depicted distances between objects
and flat surfaces will differ from
actual distances. If you back up while
looking only at the screen, you may
hit a vehicle, a person or an object.
When backing up, be sure to check
behind and all around the vehicle
visually and with mirrors before
proceeding.
Do not use the system when the tail
gate is not completely closed.
If the back of the vehicle is hit, the
position and mounting angle of the
camera may change. Be sure to have
the camera’s position and mounting
angle checked at your Toyota dealer.
As the camera has a water proof
construction, do not detach,
disassemble or modify it. This may
cause incorrect operation.
If the temperature changes rapidly,
such as when hot water is poured on
the vehicle in cold weather, the
system may not operate normally.
If the camera lens becomes dirty, it
cannot transmit a clear image. If
water droplets, snow, or mud adhere
to the lens, rinse with water and wipe
with a soft cloth. If the lens is
extremely dirty, wash it with a mild
cleanser and rinse.
Do not allow organic solvent, car
wax, window cleaner or glass coat to
adhere to the camera. If this happens,
wipe it off as soon as possible.
Use your own eyes to confirm the
vehicle’s surroundings, as the
displayed image may become faint or
dark, and moving images will be
distorted, or not entirely visible when
the outside temperature is low. When
backing up, be sure to check behind
and all around the vehicle visually
and with mirror before proceeding.
When replacing the tires, please consult
your Toyota dealer. If you replace the tires,
the area displayed on the screen may
change.

THE REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
CAMERA
The rear view monitor system camera is lo-
cated on the tail gate as shown in the illustra-
tion. The camera uses a special lens. The dis-
tance of the image that appears on the screen
differs from the actual distance.
In the following cases, it may become difficult
to see the images on the screen, even when
the system is functioning.
In the dark (for example, at night)
When the temperature near the lens is
high or low
When water droplets are adhering to the
camera, or when humidity is high (for ex-
ample, when it rains)

Check surroundings for safety.
If a bright light (for example, sunlight reflected
off the vehicle body) is picked up by the cam-
era, the smear effect
∗ peculiar to the camera
may occur.
∗: Smear effect—A phenomenon that occurs
when a bright light (for example, sunlight re-
flected off the vehicle body) is picked up by
the camera; when transmitted by the camera,
the light source appears to have a vertical
streak above and below it.
