{Warning
Adjust the radio or CD player only
while the vehicle is stationary.
Adjusting them while the vehicle
is moving could cause a crash.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
Adjust the volume so that sound
outside of the vehicle can be heard.
If outside sound cannot be heard,
crashes may be harder to avoid.
Do not install a radio equipment
antenna near the vehicle's radio
antenna. This could cause
unwanted noise on the radio or
while playing a CD. The radio or CD/USB player can be
used when the ignition is on or in
ACC/ACCESSORY. Continued use
while engine is stopped may cause
the battery to discharge.
Take care not to spill liquids, etc. on
the radio or CD player. It may cause
damage to the player.
Do not disassemble or apply oil to
radio or CD player.

searching for stations within its
available frequency band. To
cancel, press the button again.
When Tune/Track
yis pressed, the
radio is tuned to the higher
frequency range (step up), and to
the lower frequency range (step
down) when pressing Tune/
Track
z.
In both cases, if the radio cannot
find stations, it continues searching.
Storing the Stations (PRESET)
Favorite stations can be tuned by
one touch operation if they are
stored in the Preset buttons.
A maximum of 30 stations can be
memorized and stored. 12 in AM
(six each for AM1 and AM2.), and
18 in FM (six each for FM1,
FM2 and FM3.) 1. Select the radio mode to be stored from FM1, FM2, FM3,
AM1 or AM2.
2. Tune in the station of your choice. 3. Press and hold down the
Preset buttons you want to
store in, for more than
two seconds. When the station
is stored, the Preset button
number and station frequency
appear on the display window.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.
Here are some common reception
problems that probably do not
indicate a problem with your radio.
FM Transmissions
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 increase
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 happens, 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 Transmissions
Fading - AM broadcasts are
reflected by the upper atmosphere,
especially at night. These reflected
signals can interfere 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
broadcast.
Static - AM is easily affected by
external sources of electrical noise,
such as high tension power lines,
lightning, or electrical motors. This
results in static.

Installing Electrical Equipment
{Warning
Inappropriate installation or
removal of audio, radio or other
electrical equipment can
adversely affect other electrical
equipment and cause a
breakdown or fire. Be sure to
have electrical equipment
installed or removed by your
dealer. You and others could be
seriously injured.
Do not install any unauthorized
radio set, or any radio set or
antenna that does not comply with
relevant standards. Noise from the
radio set could cause
electromagnetic interference with
the vehicle's electronic equipment and other systems, resulting in a
vehicle breakdown or in a
malfunction of electronic equipment.
Consult your dealer if you wish to
install radio equipment.
Power Take-Off (PTO)
If equipped, the PTO is a device
that is used to provide engine power
to special equipment directly from
the engine or through the
transmission. For details about the
PTO operation, refer to the separate
instruction manual provided by its
maker.
If the optional PTO function is used
for long periods of time, make sure
to regularly check the diesel
particulate filter (DPF) indicator.
Automatic DPF regeneration will not
take place while the PTO function is
active.

{Warning
In PTO mode, Cruise Set/Resume

same as PTO Engine Speed
Control Switch. Improper
operation of these switches may
cause personal injury or damage.
