A short circuit occurs in the antenna or the surrounding
antenna cable. See a Toyota certified dealer for assis-
tance.
UPDATING
You have not subscribed to the XM  Satellite Radio.
The radio is being updated with the latest encryption
code. Contact the XM Satellite Radio for subscription
information. When a contract is canceled, you can
choose the “CH000” and all free −to− air channels.
The premium channel you selected is not authorized.
Wait for about 2 seconds until the radio returns to the
previous channel or “CH001”. If it does not change au-
tomatically, select another channel. If you want to listen
to the premium channel, contact the XM  Satellite Ra-
dio.
NO SIGNAL
The XM  signal is too weak at the current location. Wait
until your vehicle reaches a location with a stronger sig-
nal.
LOADINGThe unit is acquiring audio or program information. Wait
until the unit has received the information.
OFF AIRThe channel you selected is not broadcasting any pro-
gramming. Select another channel.
−−−−−
There is no song/program title or artist name/feature
associated with the channel at that time. No action
needed.
−−−
The channel you selected is no longer available. Wait
for about 2 seconds until the radio returns to the pre-
vious channel or “CH001”. If it does not change auto-
matically, select another channel.

NOTICE
This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a
class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interfer-
ence in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio com-
munications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television re-
ception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
— Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
— Increase the separation between
the equipment and receiver.
— Connect the equipment into an
outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
— Consult the dealer or an experi-
enced radio/TV technician for help.

(a) Connecting Bluetooth audio play-
er
To use the Bluetooth audio system,
you need to enter your portable player
into the system. Once you have
registered it, you can enjoy your music
on the vehicle’s audio system. (See “—
Setting Bluetooth audio” on page
267.)
For the operation procedure for the
portable player, see the instruction
manual that comes with it.
When the connection method is
“From Vehicle”.
When the auto connection is on
Vehicles with smart key system —
When the portable player is stand-
by for the connection, it will be au-
tomatically connected whenever
the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch is in either ACCESSORY or
IGNITION ON mode.
Vehicles without smart key
system —
When the portable player is stand-
by for the connection, it will be au-
tomatically connected whenever
the engine switch is in either
“ACC” or “ON” position.
When the auto connection is off
Manually connect the portable
player in accordance with the fol-
lowing procedure.

FM
Fading and drifting stations — Generally,
the effective range of FM is about 25 miles
(40 km). Once outside this range, you may
notice fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio transmit-
ter. They are often accompanied by distor-
tion.
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

Cargo loaded on the roof luggage carrier,
especially metal objects, may adversely
affect the reception of XM  Satellite Radio.
Alternation or modifications carried out
without appropriate authorization may in-
validate the user’s right to operate the
equipment.
