Installation of a mobile two-way radio system
The installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as:
●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
● Cruise control system
● Anti-lock brake system
● SRS airbag system
● Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary measures or spe-
cial instructions regarding installation of a mobile two-way radio system.
Scrapping your Toyota
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota
dealer before you scrap your vehicle.
Perchlorate Material
Special handling may apply,
See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These compo-
nents may include airbag, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote con-
trol batteries.

Wireless remote control battery depletion
The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years. (The battery becomes depleted
even if the wireless remote control is not used.) If the wireless remot\
e control
function does not operate, the battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary. ( P. 575)
■ If the wireless remote control does not operate
Locking and unlocking the doors: Use the key. ( P. 49)

If a door is not opened within approximately 60 seconds after the vehicle is
unlocked, the security feature automatically locks the vehicle again.
■ Alarm (if equipped)
Using the wireless remote control to lock the door will set the alarm sy\
stem. 
(P. 117)
■ Conditions affecting operation
The wireless remote control function may not operate normally in the follow-
ing situations.
●Near a TV tower, radio station, electr ic power plant, airport or other facil-
ity that generates strong radio waves
● When carrying a portable radio, cell ular phone or other wireless commu-
nication device
● When multiple wireless keys are in the vicinity
● When the wireless key has come into contact with, or is covered by a
metallic object

● When the wireless key has been left near an electrical appliance such as
a personal computer
■ When riding in an aircraft
When bringing a wireless remote control onto an aircraft, make sure you do
not press any buttons on the wireless remote control while inside the aircraft
