alarm midway, push the “PANIC” switch
once again, lock or unlock any door with
the key or transmitter, or turn the ignition
key from the “LOCK” to “ON” position.
The “PANIC” mode does not work when
the ignition key is in the ignition switch. WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL
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 remote keyless entry
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.
The battery may have been consumed.
Check the battery in the transmitter. To
replace the battery, see “REPLACING
THE BATTERY”.

Do not touch or move any compo-
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
to the transmitter case.
Close the transmitter case securely.
After replacing the battery, check that the
transmitter operates properly. If the trans-
mitter still does not operate properly, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
