172005 TACOMA from Mar. ’05 Prod. (OM35862U)
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 in 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.
The battery may be depleted. Check
the battery in the transmitter. To
replace the battery, see “—Replacing
battery” on page 19. If you lose your transmitter, contact your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible to
avoid the possibility of theft, or an

” (lock) switch. All
the doors are locked simultaneously. At
this time, the turn signal lights flash once.

unlock the driver ’s door alone. Pushing
the switch twice within 3 seconds unlocks
all the doors simultaneously. At this time,
the turn signal lights will flash twice. When unlocking a door when all the doors
are locked, the interior light comes on.
The lights remain on for about 15 seconds
unless either door is opened and closed.
(For further information, see “Interior light”
on page 139 in Section 1

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
doors will be automatically locked again.

in, the locking or unlocking operation is
not repeated. Release the switch and then
push again.

REAR DOOR CHILDPROTECTORS
(double cab models only)
Move the lock lever to the “LOCK”
position as shown on the label.
When the child −protector is locked, you
cannot open the rear door by the inside
door handle. We recommend using this
feature whenever small children are in the
vehicle.

232005 TACOMA from Mar. ’05 Prod. (OM35862U)
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 in an accident. It also helps pre-
vent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.
