Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master keys— These keys work in every lock.
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.
2. Sub key— This key will not work in the back door
and glove box.
To protect items locked in the glove
box or luggage compartment when us-
ing valet parking, leave the sub key
with the attendant.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.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 a power door lock system—

unlock simultaneously with either side
door. In the driver ’s door lock, turning the
key once will unlock the driver’s door and
twice in succession will unlock both side
doors and back door simultaneously.

CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the side
doors are closed and locked, espe-
cially when small children are in the
vehicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the side doors
helps prevent the driver and passen-
gers from being thrown out from the
vehicle during an accident. It also
helps prevent the side doors from be-
ing opened unintentionally.

designed to lock or unlock both side
doors and back door, or activate the

securely closed, or if the key is in the
ignition switch, locking cannot be per-
formed by the “LOCK” switch.

“DOOR” position, and both side doors and
back door are unlocked simultaneously us-
ing the wireless remote control transmitter,
the interior light will come on and remain
on for about 15 seconds before fading
out, even if the door is not opened. (For
further information, see “Interior light” in
Section 14.)

pressed in, the locking or unlocking opera-
tion is not repeated. Release the switch
and then push again.

horn intermittently and flashes the
headlights and tail lights.

hicle theft when you witness anyone at-
tempting to break into or damage your
vehicle.
The alarm will last for one minute. To stop
alarm midway, do the following:
Push the “PANIC” switch once again.
Unlock either side door or back door
with the key or wireless remote control

WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL
TRANSMITTER
The wireless remote control transmitter is
an electronic component. Observe the fol-
lowing instructions in order not to cause
damage to the transmitter.
Do not leave the transmitter on 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 4 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.

negative side of the transmitter bat-
tery should be faced correctly.

nents inside of the transmitter, or
it may interfere with proper opera-
tion.
Be careful not to bend the electrode
of the transmitter battery insertion
and that dust or oils do not adhere

transmitter operates properly. If the trans-
mitter still does not operate properly, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
Before you close the power win-
dows, always make sure there is
nobody around the power windows.
You must also make sure the
heads, hands and other parts of the
bodies of all occupants are kept
completely inside the vehicle. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in a closing window, it
could result in a serious injury.
When anyone closes the power win-
dows, make sure he or she oper-
ates the windows 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.
Insert the master key into the keyhole
and turn it.

lease lever.
