CAUTION
People with implanted pacemakers

maintain a reasonable distance be-
tween themselves and the smart
key system antennas, because the
radio waves may affect the opera-
tion of such devices. For the anten-
na locations see “ANTENNA LOCA-
TION” on page 34 in this Section.
Users of any electrical medical de-
vice other than implanted pacemak-
ers and implanted cardiac defibrilla-
tors should consult the manufactur-
er of the device for information
about its operation under the influ-
ence of radio waves. Radio waves
could have unexpected effects on
the operation of such medical de-
vices.
If necessary, the entry function can
be disabled. See “DISABLING THE
SMART KEY SYSTEM” on page 38

You can purchase a new electronic key
at your Toyota dealer if you can give
them the key number and master key.
If you lose any of your keys, contact your
Toyota dealer to have new keys made.
Lost keys increase the danger of vehicle
theft. Bring all of the remaining vehicle
keys when you visit your Toyota dealer.
See the suggestion given in “Keys” on
page 22 in Section 1−2.
You can use the wireless remote control
function and smart entry and start function
by new key. Contact your Toyota dealer
for detailed information.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and
you cannot get a duplicate, many Toyota
dealers can still open the door for you,
using their special tools. If you must
break a window to get in, we suggest
breaking the smallest side window be-
cause it is the least expensive to replace.
Be extremely cautious to avoid cuts from
the glass.
