Operation of each component
4RUNNER (U)_(OM35A83U)●
When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
● When multiple electronic keys are in the vicinity
● When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
● When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that
emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
● If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the
back window
■ Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel or floor, in the glove box, or in the auxiliary box of the instrument panel.
● Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the
door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic
key inside the vehicle.
● As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting the elec-
tronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.
● The doors may lock or unlock if the electronic key is within the effective
range and a large amount of water splashes on the door handle, such as in
the rain or in a car wash. The doors will automatically be locked after
approximately 60 seconds if a door is not opened and closed.
● If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)

1123-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
4RUNNER (U)_(OM35A83U)■
Note for locking the doors
●Touching the door lock sensor while wearing gloves may delay or prevent
lock operation. Remove the gloves and touch the lock sensor again.
● When the lock operation is performed using the lock sensor, recognition sig-
nals will be shown up to two consecutive times. After this, no recognition
signals will be given.
● If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the electronic
key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the vehicle while the vehicle
is being washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
● If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the
alarm, lock all the doors.
● The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again, or
use the lock sensor on the lower part of the door handle.
● Fingernails may scrape against the door during operation of the door han-
dle. Be careful not to injure fingernails or damage the surface of the door.
■ Note for the unlocking function
●Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
● A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the origi-
nal position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle
again.
● If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly
longer to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped.
■ When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2 m)
of the vehicle.
■ To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. Do not get
the electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the system from
the outside of the vehicle.

■Jam protection function
During Automatic running boards operation:
If a board contacts an obstacle when extending, it will retract. If an obstacle
gets caught between a board and the vehicle when retracting, the board will
extend.
If an obstacle is detected 3 times in a row during Automatic running boards
operation, the board will stop at the position it contacts the obstacle. When a
side door on the same side as the board is opened and closed one more
time, the board will extend and retract, or retract and extend. After this, the
board will resume normal operation.
■ Automatic retraction function
The boards will be automatically retracted, for safety, under the following con-
ditions:
●A board is not completely retracted
● Vehicle speed is approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or higher
The boards will not automatically extend again when vehicle speed returns to
less than 5 mph (8 km/h).
■ If the Automatic running boards indicator comes on when driving first
commences
A board has not completely retracted. Check that no obstacles are caught
between a board and the vehicle.
■ If the Automatic running boards indicator light flashes
There may be a malfunction in the Automatic running boards system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
■ When snow or mud is attached to the board or the board is frozen
The Automatic running boards may not operate correctly. Before stepping on
a board, check that it is completely extended. If the Automatic running boards
are not operating correctly, turn the Automatic running boards switch off and
refrain from use.
When removing snow or mud, turn the Automatic running boards switch off.
