These keys work in every lock.
Since the side doors can be locked with-
out a key, you should always carry a
spare key in case you accidentally lock
your keys inside the vehicle.
For information on use of the wireless
remote control key, see “Wireless remote
control” on page 12.KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you
need additional keys, duplicates can be
made by a Scion dealer using the key
number.
We recommend writing down the key num-
ber and storing it in a safe place.
12T052
Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master keys—These keys work in ev- ery lock. Your Scion dealer will need
one of them to make a new key with
a built–in transponder chip.
2. Sub key—This key will not work in the glove box.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed in the head of
the master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the system
or start the engine.
