05 02.25 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 system. 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 compact 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 volume of one group of sounds while decreasing the volume of another. YOUR RADIO ANTENNA To remove an antenna, carefully turn it counterclockwise. 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 than standard 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. 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 compact discs into the slot. 2005 TACOMA from Mar.
