Audio System (h) If the player malfunctions If the player or another unit equipped with the player malfunctions, our audio system will display one of the following error messages. If "CD CHECK" appears on the display: It indicates that the disc is dirty, damaged or it was inserted up-side down. Clean the disc or insert it correctly. If "CD ERROR" appears on the display: The following causes are possible. D There is a trouble inside the system. Eject the disc. D The inside of the player unit may be too hot due to the very high ambient temperature. Eject the disc and allow the player to cool down. If the malfunction is not rectified: Take your vehicle to your Lexus dealer. Car audio system operating hints NOTICE To ensure the correct audio system operation: D Be careful not to spill beverages over the audio system. D Do not put anything other than a cassette tape or compact disc into the cassette tape slot or compact disc slot. D The use of cellular phone inside or near the vehicle may cause a noise from the speakers of the audio system which you are listening to. However, this does not indicate a malfunction. Radio reception Usually, the 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, and 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 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. 126

NOTICE
To ensure the correct audio system op-
eration:
D
Be careful not to spill beverages
over the audio system.
D
Do not put anything other than a cas-
sette tape or compact disc into the
cassette tape slot or compact disc
slot.
D
The use of cellular phone inside or
near the vehicle may cause a noise
from the speakers of the audio
system which you are listening to.
However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
Radio reception
Usually, the 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 sig-
nals.
And of course, radio signals have a lim-
ited range, and the farther you are from a sta-
tion, 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
Fading and drifting stations
– Generally,
the effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles).
Once outside this range, you may no-
tice fading and drifting, which increase with
the distance from the radio transmitter.
They
are often accompanied by distortion.
Multi–path
– FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for two signals to reach your
antenna at the same time.
If this happens,
the signals will cancel each other out, caus-
ing 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 lev-
el may reduce static and fluttering.
