The wireless remote control system is
designed to lock or unlock all the side

side doors and back door are locked si-
multaneously. At this time one beep will
be heard, and tail lights flash once.

back door are securely locked.
If any of the side doors or back door is
not securely closed, locking cannot be
performed by the “LOCK” switch and a
beep will sound continuously for 10 sec-
onds. However, if the key is in the igni-
tion, a beep will not sound.

securely or push the “UNLOCK” switch. To unlock: Push the “UNLOCK” switch
once to unlock the driver ’s door alone.
Pushing the switch twice within 3 seconds
unlocks all the side doors and back door
simultaneously. Each time the “UNLOCK”
switch is pushed, two beeps will be heard,
and the parking lights and tail lights flash
twice.
You have 30 seconds to open a door after
using the wireless remote unlock feature.
If a door is not opened by then, all the
side doors and back door will be automati-
cally locked again.
If the “LOCK” or “UNLOCK” switch is kept
pressed in, the locking or unlocking opera-
tion is not repeated. Release the button
and then push again.
The volume of beep sound can be
changed. Contact your Toyota dealer for
details if you require it.
