Locking operation
Unlocking operation
To lock and unlock all the side doors
and back door, push the switches of
the transmitter slowly and securely.
To lock: Push the “LOCK” switch. All the
side doors and back door are locked si-
multaneously. At this time, turn signal
lights flash once.
Check to see that all the side doors and
back door are securely locked.
If any of side doors or back door is not
securely closed, or if the key is in the
ignition switch, locking cannot be per-
formed by the “LOCK” 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. At this time, turn signal
lights flash twice.
When the interior light dial is in the door
position, and all the side doors and back
door are unlocked simultaneously with a
wireless remote control transmitter, the in-
terior lights come on for about 15 seconds
and then fade out, even if the door is not
opened. (For further information, see “Inte-
rior/instrument panel light control” on page
97 in Section 1−5.) 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 switch
and then push again.

Be careful not to bend the electrode
when inserting the transmitter bat-
tery and that dust or oils do not
adhere to the transmitter case.

After replacing the battery, check that the
transmitter operates properly. If the trans-
mitter still does not operate properly, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY
Insert the key into the keyhole and turn
it.
To lock: Turn the key forward.

doors and back door simultaneously. When the interior light control dial is in
the door position, and all the side doors
and back door are unlocked simultaneous-
ly with a key or wireless remote control
transmitter, the interior lights come on for
about 15 seconds and then fade out, even
if the door is not opened. (For further
information, see “Interior/instrument panel
light control” on page 97 in Section 1
−5.)

CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors
are closed and locked, especially
when small children are in the ve-
hicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers
from being thrown out from the ve-
hicle during an accident. It also helps
prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.
You can select the following modes of
the automatic locking and unlocking
functions. The initial mode is mode 1.
Mode 1—Automatic locking linked
with the shift position
All the side doors and back door are
automatically locked when the shift le-
ver is moved out of the “P” position
with the ignition switch in the “ON”
position and all the doors are closed.
Mode 2—Functions cancelled
Automatic door locking and unlocking
functions do not activate in this mode.
Mode 3—Automatic locking and un-
locking linked with the shift position
Locking function—All the side doors
and back door are automatically locked
when the shift lever is moved out of
the “P” position with the ignition switch
in the “ON” position and all the doors
are closed.
Unlocking function—All the side doors
and back door are automatically un-
locked when the shift lever is moved
to the “P” position with the ignition
switch in the “ON” position.
Mode 4—Automatic locking and un-
locking linked with the shift position
and ignition switch
Locking function—All the side doors
and back door are automatically locked
when the shift lever is moved out of
the “P” position with the ignition switch
in the “ON” position and all the doors
are closed.
Unlocking function—All the side doors
and back door are automatically un-
locked when the ignition switch is
turned from the “ON” position to the
“ACC” or “LOCK” position.
CHANGING THE MODE
The mode toggles through from mode
1 to mode 4. To change the mode, do
the following: 1. Set the interior light control dial to the door position. (See “Interior/instrument
panel light control” on page 97 in Sec-
tion 1 −5.)
2. Shift the shift lever into the “P” posi- tion and close all the side doors and
