Using your audio system—

—Some basics

Reference

This section describes some of the basic

features on Toyota audio systems. Some

information may not pertain to your sys-

tem.

TONE AND BALANCE

For details about your system’s tone and

balance controls, see the description of

your own system.

Your audio system works when the ignition

key is in the “ACC” or “ON” position.

Tone

How good an audio program sounds to

you is largely determined by the mix of

the treble, midrange (on some models)

and bass levels. In fact, different kinds of

music and vocal programs usually sound

better with different mixes of treble, mi-

drange and bass.

TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF

Push “PWR·VOL” to turn the audio system

on and off.

Push “AM”, “FM”, “TAPE” or “DISC” to

turn on that function without pushing

“PWR·VOL”. To turn on the cassette or

compact disc player, a cassette or com-

pact disc must be loaded in the player.

Balance

AM·FM radio/cassette player/compact disc

player (with compact disc changer con-

troller)

A good balance of the left and right stereo

channels and of the front and rear sound

levels is also important.

You can turn on each player by inserting

a cassette tape or compact disc.

You can turn off each player by ejecting

the cassette tape or compact disc. If the

audio system was previously off, then the

entire audio system will be turned off

when you eject the cassette tape or com-

pact disc. If the another function was pre-

viously playing, it will come on again.

Keep in mind that if you are listening to

a stereo recording or broadcast, changing

the right/left balance will increase the vol-

ume of one group of sounds while de-

creasing the volume of another.

SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS

Push “AM”, “FM”, “TAPE” or “DISC” if the

system is already on but you want to

switch from one function to another.

YOUR RADIO ANTENNA

YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER

NOTICE

Mast type power antenna—

When you insert a disc, gently push it in

with the label side up. (The player will

automatically eject a disc if the label side

is down.) The player will play from track

1 through the end of the disc. Then it will

play from track 1 again.

z To prevent damage to the antenna,

make sure it is retracted or re-

moved before driving your Toyota

through an automatic car wash.

To lower the power antenna, turn off the

audio system by pushing “PWR·VOL”, or

turn the ignition key to “LOCK”.

The power antenna automatically retracts

when the radio mode is switched off to

turn on the cassette tape player or com-

pact disc player.

z With glass antenna—Attaching the

film (especially conductive or metal-

lic type) on the rear glass will no-

ticeably reduce the sensitivity of

the radio.

NOTICE

Never try to disassemble or oil any

part of the compact disc player. Do

not insert anything other than com-

pact discs into the slot.

Some models also have a glass antenna

printed on the inside of the rear window.

Mast type antenna—

YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER

To remove the antenna, carefully turn it

counterclockwise.

When you insert a cassette, the exposed

tape should face to the right.

The player is intended for use with 12 cm

(4.7 in.) discs only.

Some models also have a glass antenna

printed on the inside of the rear window.

NOTICE

Do not oil any part of the player and

do not insert anything other than cas-

sette tapes into the slot, or the tape

player may be damaged.
