The power outlets are designed for
power supply for car accessories.

The key must be in the “ACC” or “ON”
position for the power outlets to be used.

NOTICE



To prevent the fuse from being
blown, do not use the electricity
over the total vehicle capacity of 12
V/120W (instrument panel and rear
console box outlets together).



To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not use the power
outlets longer than necessary when
the engine is not running.



Close the power outlet lids when
the power outlets are not in use.
Inserting anything other than an ap­propriate plug that fits the outlet,
or allowing any liquid to get into
the outlet may cause electrical fail­ure or short circuits.

Power outlet (115 VAC)

This power outlet is designed for use
as a power supply for electric ap­pliances in the vehicle.

The key must be in the “ON” position for
the power outlet to be used.

The maximum capacity for this power out­let is 115 VAC/100W. If you attempt to
use an appliance that requires more than
115 VAC or 100W, the protection circuit
will activate and cut the power supply.
The power supply will restart automatically
when you use an appliance that operates
within the 115 VAC/100W limits.

’05 MATRIX_U (L/O 0409)

To use the power outlet, push the main
switch on the instrument panel.

An indicator light will illuminate to indicate
that the power outlet is ready for use.

Push the main switch once again to turn
the power outlet off. When the power out­let is not in use, make sure that the main
switch is turned off.

NOTICE

Close the power outlet lid when the
power outlet is not in use. Inserting
anything other than an appropriate
plug that fits the outlet may cause
electrical failure or short circuits.

The power outlet is not designed for
the following electric appliances even
though their power consumption is un­der 115 VAC/100W. These appliances
may not operate properly.

 Appliances with high initial peak watt-

age: cathode- ray tube type televisions,
compressor- driven refrigerators, electric
pumps, electric tools, etc.

 Measuring devices which process pre-

cise data: medical equipment, measur­ing instruments, etc.

 Other appliances requiring an extremely

stable power supply: microcomputer­controlled electric blankets, touch sen­sor lamps, etc.

Certain electrical appliances may cause
radio noise.

 The vehicle is in a place where the

earth’s magnetic field is subject to in­terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).

 The vehicle is magnetized. (There is a

magnet or a metal object on or near
the inside rear view mirror.)

 The battery has been disconnected.

If your vehicle is out of the set zone,
refer to “CALIBRATING THE COMPASS”
below to set the zone number.

If the deviation is small, the compass
works to calibrate the direction automati­cally while the vehicle is in motion.

For additional precision or for complete
calibrating, see “CALIBRATING THE
COMPASS” below.

Compass sensor

The compass sensor is in the inside
rear view mirror.

NOTICE

Do not put magnets or a metal object
on or near the inside rear view mirror
of the vehicle. Doing this may cause
malfunction of the compass sensor.

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (deviation
calibration)

The direction display on the compass
deviates from the true direction deter­mined by the earth’s magnetic field. The
angle of deviation varies according to the
geographic position of the vehicle.

To adjust this deviation, stop the vehicle,
then push and hold the both personal light
switches until the zone number appears
on the display. Then push the right side
or left side personal light switch, referring
to the following map to select the number
of the zone where the vehicle is.

several seconds returns it to the compass
mode.

CAUTION

Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling
calibration)

Sometimes the direction display on the
compass may not change after a turn. To
rectify this, stop the vehicle and push and
hold the both personal light switches until
“C” appears on the display.

If “C” appears on the display because of
a drastic change in the magnetic field,
perform circling calibration.

’05 MATRIX_U (L/O 0409)

Drive the vehicle in a circle at 8 km/h (5
mph) or less. If there is not enough space
to drive in a circle, drive around the
block.

After driving 1 to 3 circles in the above
method, calibration is completed when the
direction is shown on the display.

If calibration cannot be performed because
of the magnetized vehicle etc., take your
vehicle to Toyota dealer.

Perform circling calibration just after
you have purchased your Toyota. And
then always perform circling calibration
after the battery has been removed, re­placed or disconnected.

 Do not perform circling calibration of

the compass in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in­terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).

 During calibration, do not operate elec-

tric systems (moon roof, power win­dows, etc.) as they may interfere with
the calibration.

172

2005 MATRIX from Sep. ’04 Prod. (OM12892U)

CAUTION

 When doing the circling calibration,

be sure to secure a wide space,
and watch out for people and ve­hicles in the neighborhood. Do not
violate any local traffic rules while
performing circling calibration.

 Do not adjust the display while the

vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.

When using valet parking, leave the sub
key with the attendant.

Since the side doors and back door can
be locked without a key, you should al­ways carry a spare master key in case
you accidentally lock your keys inside the
vehicle.

Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.

1. Master keys (black)—These keys work
in every lock. Your Toyota dealer will
need one of them to make a new key
with a built−in transponder chip.

2. Sub key (gray)—This key also works in

A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed in the head of
the master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the system
or start the engine.
