Locking operation
Unlocking operation
The wireless remote control system is
designed to lock or unlock both doors,
open the trunk lid, or activate the
“PANIC” mode from a distance within
approximately 1 m (3 ft.) of the vehicle.
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE
DOORS
To lock and unlock both doors, push
the switches of the transmitter slowly
and securely.
To lock: Push the “LOCK”  switch. Both
doors are locked simultaneously. At this
time one beep will be heard, and the
parking lights and tail lights will flash
once.
Check to see that the doors are securely
locked.
If either doors is not securely closed,
locking cannot be performed by  the
“LOCK” switch and a beep will  sound con-
tinuously for 10 seconds. However, if the
key is in the ignition, a beep will not
sound.
To stop the beep,  close both doors  se-
curely or push the “UNLOCK” switch. To unlock: Push the “UNLOCK” switch
once to unlock only the driver’s door.
Pushing the switch twice within 3 seconds
unlocks both doors simultaneously. Each
time the “UNLOCK” switch is pushed, two
beeps will be heard, and the parking lights
and tail lights will flash twice.
When the “UNLOCK” switch is pressed,
the interior light and ignition switch light
come on. The lights  remain on for about
15 seconds unless either door is opened
then and closed. (For further information,
see “Interior light” and “Ignition switch
light” in Section 1 4.)
You have 30 seconds  to open a door after
using the wireless remote unlock feature.
If a door  is not opened by  then, both
doors will be automatically  locked again
and one beep will be heard.
If the “LOCK” or “UNLOCK” switch is kept
pressed in, the locking or unlocking opera-
tion is not repeated. Release the switch
and then push again.

The inside of the lens of exterior lights
such as headlights may temporarily  fog up
when the lens becomes wet in the rain or
in a car wash. This is not a problem
because the fogging is caused by the
temperature difference between the outside
and inside of the lens, just like the
windshield fogged up in the rain. However,
if there is a large drop of water on the
inside of the lens, or if there is water
pooled inside the light, contact your
Toyota dealer.
