Using your audio system—
—Some basics
This section describes some of the basic
features on Toyota audio systems. Some
information may not pertain to your sys-
tem.
Your audio system works when the ignition
key is in the "ACC" or "ON" position.
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF
Push "PWR·VOL" to turn the audio system
on and off.
Push "AM", "FM1·2", "FM1", "FM2", "DISC"
or "LOAD" to turn on that function without
pushing "PWR·VOL". To turn on the com-
pact disc player, a compact disc must be
loaded in the player.
You can turn on the compact disc player
by inserting a compact disc.
You can turn off the compact disc player
by ejecting the compact disc. If the audio
system was previously off, then the entire
audio system will be turned off when you
eject the compact disc. If the radio was
previously on, it will come on again.
SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS
Push "AM", "FM1·2", "FM1", "FM2", "DISC"
or "LOAD" if the system is already on but
you want to switch from one function to
another.
TONE AND BALANCE
For details about your system's tone and
balance controls, see the description of
your own system.
Tone
How good an audio program sounds to
you is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, midrange (type 3), and bass
levels. In fact, different kinds of music
and vocal programs usually sound better
with different mixes of treble, midrange
and bass.
Balance
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound
levels is also important.
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.
YOUR RADIO ANTENNA
To remove an antenna, carefully turn it
counterclockwise.
YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER
(type 1)
When you insert a disc, gently push it in
with the label side up. The player will play
from track 1 through to the end of the
disc. Then it will play from track 1 again.
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.
8 cm (3 in.) compact disc singles
Your compact disc player does not need
an adaptor to play compact disc singles.
Compact disc singles are about 8 cm (3
in.) in diameter- smaller
discs.
After you eject a compact disc single, do
not insert a standard 12 cm (4.7 in.) disc
until "DISC" disappears from the display.
