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. To protect items locked in the trunk or glove box when using valet parking, leave the sub key with the attendant.

Keys (with key cylinder−type ignition switch)

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 will not work in the locks of the glove box and the door located behind the rear seat arm- rest.

12

NOTICE

When using a key containing a trans- ponder chip, observe the following precautions: (cid:1) When starting the engine, do not use the key with a key ring resting on the key grip and do not press the key ring against the key grip. Otherwise the engine may not start, or may stop soon after it starts.

(cid:1) Do not bend the key grip.

(cid:1) When starting the engine, do not use the key with other transponder keys around (including keys of oth- er vehicles) and do not press other key plates against the key grip. Otherwise the engine may not start, or may stop soon after it starts. If this happens, remove the key once and then insert it again after remov- ing other transponder keys (includ- ing keys of other vehicles) from the ring or while gripping or covering them with your hand to start the engine.

(cid:1) Do not cover the key grip with any material that cuts off electromagnet- ic waves.

(cid:1) Do not knock the key hard against

other objects.

(cid:1) Do not leave the key exposed to high temperatures for a long period, such as on the dashboard and hood under direct sunlight.

(cid:1) Do not put the key in water or

wash it in an ultrasonic washer.

(cid:1) Do not use the key with electromag-

netic materials.

Keys (with smart key system)

KEY NUMBER PLATE Your key number is shown on the plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. If you should lose your keys or if you need additional keys, duplicates can be made by a Toyota dealer using the key number. We recommend writing down the key num- ber and storing it in a safe place.

The key consists of an electronic key and a mechanical key. The mechanical key is for emergency use. If the elec- tronic key does not operate, you can open the driver’s door using the me- chanical key. 1. Electronic keys—These keys can lock or unlock all the doors and can open the trunk by using the wireless remote control function or entry function of the smart key system.

2. Mechanical keys—These keys can lock or unlock the driver’s door, the glove box and the door located behind the rear seat armrest.

When using a electronic key contain- ing a transponder chip, observe the following precautions: (cid:1) Do not affix any material that cuts off electromagnetic waves (such as a metal seal) on the electronic key. (cid:1) Do not knock the electronic key

hard against other objects.

(cid:1) Do not leave the electronic key ex- posed to high temperatures for a long period, such as on the dash- board or hood under direct sun- light.

(cid:1) Do not put the electronic key in water or wash it in an ultrasonic washer.

(cid:1) Do not keep the electronic key to- gether with the products emitting electromagnetic waves such as a cellular phone.

USING A MECHANICAL KEY When you use the mechanical key push the release button and take out the me- chanical key as shown. Be sure to put the mechanical key back when not it use.

Engine immobilizer system The engine is a immobilizer system theft prevention system using an elec- tronic code. The transponder chip in the key has an electronic code and transmits the code to the vehicle. Only when the electronic code in the chip corresponds to the register ID code for the vehicle, the engine immobilizer sys- tem will be canceled and the engine will start.

KEY NUMBER PLATE Your key number is shown on the plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. If you should lose your keys or if you need additional keys, duplicates can be made by Toyota dealer using the key number. We recommend writing down the key num- ber and storing it in a safe place.

For your Toyota dealer to make you a new key with built−in transponder chip, your dealer will need your key number and master key (vehicles with key cylin- der−type ignition switch) or electronic key (vehicles with smart key system). Howev- er, there is a limit to the number of addi- tional keys your Toyota dealer can make for you.

NOTICE

Do not modify, remove or disas- semble the engine immobilizer sys- tem. If any unauthorized changes or modifications are made, proper opera- tion of the system cannot be guaran- teed.
