Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master key—This key works in every lock.
2. Sub key—This key will not work in the trunk.
To protect things locked in the trunk when
you have your vehicle parked, leave the
sub key with the attendant.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be
locked without a key, you should always
carry a spare master key in case you
accidentally lock your keys inside the ve-
hicle.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 you to write down the key
number and keep it in safe place.LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY
Insert the key into the keyhole and turn
it.
To lock: Turn the key forward.
To unlock: Turn the key backward.
Vehicles with power door lock system—All
the doors lock and unlock simultaneously
with either front door. In the driver ’s door
lock, turning the key once will unlock the
