'99 AVALON (USA/CANADA) −U The track number you select is not valid if it is higher than the number of tracks remaining on the current cassette side. ST (Stereo reception) display Your radio automatically changes to stereo reception when a stereo broadcast is received. "ST" appears on the display. If the signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the amount of channel separation to prevent the weak signal from creating noise. If the signal becomes extremely weak, the radio switches from stereo to mono reception. TAPE Push "TAPE" to switch from radio or compact disc operation to cassette operation. If the audio system is off, you can turn on the cassette player by pushing "TAPE". In both cases, a cassette must already be loaded in the player. TRACK (Track up/down Compact disc player button): TUNE Tuning Your Toyota has an electronic tuning radio (ETR). Push and release the " Ɯ" (up) or " Ɲ" (down) side of "TUNE" to step up or down the station band. (If you hear a beep, you held the button too long and the radio will go into the seek mode.) Seeking Type 1−1 only In the seek mode, the radio finds and plays the next station up or down the station band. To seek a station, push and hold the " Ɯ" or "Ɲ" side of "TUNE" until you hear a beep. Do this again to find another station. VOL/PWR (Volume/Power) Push "VOL/PWR" to turn the audio system on and off. Turn "VOL/PWR" to adjust the volume. D After the beginning of the tape is reached, the player will automatically start playing the same side. D After the end of the tape is reached, the player will automatically reverse sides and start playing the other side. There must be at least 3 seconds of blank space between tracks for the track button to work correctly. In addition, the feature may not work well with some spoken word, live, or classical recordings. SKIP Type 1−2 only The skip feature allows you to fast forward past long stretches of blank tape. This is especially useful at the end of cassettes. Push "SKIP". "SKIP" will appear on the display. The cassette player will keep track of how much blank space it plays. Any time it has played about 10 seconds of blank tape, it will automatically fast forward to the next track and begin to play. Push the button a second time to turn off the skip feature. By using this button, you can skip up or down to a different track. Push either side of the track button until the number of the track you want to listen to appears on the display. If you want to return to the beginning of the current track, push the down side of the button one time, quickly. 115
