changed to a single switch operation. For
details, contact your Toyota dealer.

less remote control transmitter, the center
interior light, personal lights and ignition
switch light come on for about 15 seconds
before fading out, even if the door is not
opened. (For details, see “Interior lights”
on page 122, “Personal lights” on page
123 and “Ignition switch light” on page
124 in Section 1−5.)

cally locked again. At this time, one beep
will be heard, and the turn signal lights
flash once.
The timing for the automatic door lock
function can be changed. For details, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
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 wireless door locking or unlocking
function can be erased. For details, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.

beep is on initially and after battery re-
placement.)

2. Within 5 seconds, insert the ignition key again and turn it to the “ON” posi-
tion.
3. After 10 seconds, push the same “LOCK”, “UNLOCK” or “PANIC” switch

program has been switched on or off.
If this procedure is not followed exactly,
the beep will not operate as expected.

ing the transmitter switch after you finish
this procedure. If the beep does not oper-
ate as expected, repeat this procedure
from step 1.
