designed to sound an alarm if any of
the side doors, back door or hood is
forcibly unlocked or opened or the bat-

and flashes the headlights, tail lights and
turn signal lights, and turns on the interior
and luggage compartment lights.SETTING THE SYSTEM

The indicator light will remain on when all
the side doors, back door and hood are
closed and locked. The system will automatically be set after
30 seconds. When the system is set, the
indicator light will start flashing again.
4. After making sure the indicator light starts flashing, you may leave the ve-
hicle.

mote control transmitter, or if the back
door or hood is forcibly opened.
If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected.
If the ignition is hotwired.
The indicator light will come on when the

tomatically.
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop and the indicator light will starts
flashing again.

The alarm will be stopped by the following
these ways:
Unlock any of the side doors or the
back door with the key or wireless re-
mote control transmitter.
Turn the ignition key from the “LOCK”
to “ON” position.
These ways cancel the system at the
same time.
If the battery becomes discharged due
to the vehicle being unused for a long
time, etc., when the battery is recharged
or replaced, the system will give the
alarm. If this happens, immediately unlock
any of the side doors or the back door
with the key or the wireless remote con-
trol transmitter, and the alarm will stop. TESTING THE SYSTEM

Key off operation: If both front doors are
closed, it works for 43 seconds even after
the ignition switch is turned off. It stops
working when either front door is opened.
Jam protection function:
If something gets caught between the
moon roof and frame during slide clos-
ing operation, the moon roof stops and
opens half way, and the deflector stops
and raises fully.
If something gets caught between the
moon roof and frame during tilting
down operation, the moon roof stops
and opens fully.
If the moon roof receives a strong impact,
this function may work even if nothing is
caught.
If the battery is disconnected or run
down, the moon roof may not operate
automatically and the jam protection func-
tion will not function correctly after you
reconnect, replace or recharge the battery.
In any of these cases, you should normal-
ize the moon roof.
To normalize the moon roof, push and
hold the switch on the “TILT UP” side until
the moon roof tilts all the way up and
then tilts down a little automatically. Make sure that the moon roof opens and
closes automatically. If the moon roof can-
not be operated properly, have it checked
by your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, always
keep the heads, hands and other
parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Other-
wise, they could be seriously in-
jured if the vehicle stops suddenly
or if the vehicle is involved in an
accident.
Before you close the moon roof,
always make sure there is nobody
around the moon roof. You must
also make sure nobody places his
or her head, hands and other parts
of the body in the roof opening. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in the closing roof, it could
result in death or serious injury.
When anyone closes the moon roof,
first make sure it is safe to do so.
Be sure to remove the ignition key
when you leave your vehicle.
Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could
use the moon roof switch and get
trapped in the roof opening. Unat-
tended person (particularly a small
child) can be involved in a serious
accident.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.
Never try jamming any part of your
body to activate the jam protection
function intentionally, as it could re-
sult in a serious injury.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the moon roof is fully
closed.

CAUTION
Do not allow passengers to ride on
the flattened seat while driving; use
the seat in the normal position.
After putting back the seat, try
pushing the seat and seatback for-
ward and rearward to make sure it
is secured in place. Be certain to
replace the head restraint.
This system can memorize the position
of the driver ’s seat and recall it at the
touch of a button.
Buttons “1” and “2” can memorize two
separate positions.
SETTING THE DRIVING POSITION
The ignition key must be in the “ON” posi-
tion and the selector lever is in the “P”
position.
1. Adjust the driver’s seat to the de- sired position.
2. While pushing the “SET” button, push button “1” or “2” until a beep
is heard.
The system can memorize up to 2 posi-
tions by repeating the above steps. If step
2 is performed when both buttons “1” and
“2” are memorized, the previous position
will be erased and a new position will be
set.

To make only slight changes to an already
memorized position, the easiest way is to
first activate the memorized position, then
make the desired changes and perform
step 2 above.
RECALLING THE MEMORIZED POSITION
When you push button “1” or “2”, a
beep will sound and the driving posi-
tion will be automatically adjusted to
the position recorded for that button.
The memorized position can be recalled
under the following conditions:
The ignition key is in the “ON” position
and the selector lever is in the “P”
position.
The ignition key is turned to the
“LOCK” position or the key is not in
the ignition switch, and less than 30
seconds have passed since opening
the driver ’s door. To stop the operation, push any driving
position memory button.
To reactivate the system, push the button
“1” or “2” again.
If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected,
the memory will be erased and the posi-
tions will have to be set again.
CAUTION
Do not start the vehicle while the
adjustments are being made.
Take care not to select the wrong
button, or the seat could strike the
rear passenger or hit your body
against the steering wheel. If this
happens, you can stop the move-
ment by pressing another driving
position memory switch.

Move the dial forward or backward to ad-
just to the desired temperature. When the
