an electronic component. Observe the fol-
lowing instruction in order not to cause
damage on the transmitter.
Do not leave the transmitter on the
places where the temperature becomes
high such as on the dashboard.

Do not disassemble it.

Avoid knocking it hard against other
objects or dropping it.

Avoid putting it in water.
You can use up to 2 wireless remote con-
trol transmitters for the same vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for detailed
information.
If the wireless remote control transmitter
does not actuate the doors or alarm, or
operate from a normal distance.

Check for closeness to a radio trans-
mitter such as a radio station or an
airport which can interfere with normal
operation of the transmitter.

sumed. Check the batteries in the
transmitter. To replace the batteries,
see ªReplacing transmitter batteriesº.

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.

Always make sure the heads, hands
and other parts of the bodies of all
occupants are kept completely in-
side the vehicle before you close
the power windows. If someone's
neck, head or hands gets caught in
a closing window, it could result in
a serious injury. When anyone
closes the power windows, make
sure that he/she operates the win-
dows safely.

When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
window switches without supervi-
sion. Use the window lock switch to
prevent them from making unex-
pected use of the switches.

Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the power window switches and
get trapped in a window. Unat-
tended children can be involved in
serious accidents.

down on it. After closing the trunk lid, try
pulling it up to make sure it is securely
closed.

Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Unsupervised children
may lock themselves in the vehicle
or trunk and suffer serious injuries
or death.
