1123-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U (OM12J84U)
nOperation signal (with a wirel ess remote control function)
A buzzer sounds to indicate that the trunk has been opened.
n Trunk light
The trunk light turns on when the trunk is opened.
n Function to prevent the tr unk being locked with the electronic key inside
(vehicles with a smart key system)
l When all doors are being locked, closing the trunk lid with the electronic key
left inside the trunk will sound an alarm.
In this case, the trunk lid can be opened by pressing the trunk release but-
ton on the trunk lid.
l Even when the spare electronic key is put in the trunk with all the doors
locked, the key confinement prevention function can be activated so the
trunk can be opened. In order to prevent theft, take all electronic keys with
you when leaving the vehicle.
l Even when the electronic key is put in the trunk with all the doors are locked,
the key may not be detected depending on the places and the surrounding
radio wave conditions. In this case, the key confinement prevention function
cannot be activated, causing the doors to lock when the trunk is closed.
Make sure to check where the key is before closing the trunk.
l The key confinement prevention function cannot be activated if any one of
the doors is unlocked. In this case, open the trunk using the trunk opener.
n Internal trunk release lever

1203-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U (OM12J84U)n
Note for the entry function
lEven 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 near the ground or in a high place, or too close to
the rear bumper center when the trunk is opened.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the door pockets or glove box when the engine is started or engine
switch modes are changed.
l 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
doors will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic
key inside the vehicle.
l 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.
l Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the electronic key is near the window.
l The doors may unlock or lock if a large amount of water splashes on the
door handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash, when the electronic key is
within the effective range. (The doors will automatically be locked after
approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
l 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.)
l Touching the door lock or unlock sensor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation.
l 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.
l If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this case, follow the
following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:
• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the
vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key
system. ( P. 118)
l Vehicles with a drive monitor display: If the electronic key is inside the vehi-
cle 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.

Operation of each component
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U (OM12J84U)l
Vehicles with a multi-information display: If the electronic key is inside the
vehicle and a door handle becomes wet during a car wash, a message may
be shown on the multi-information display and a buzzer will sound outside
the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors.
l 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.
l 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.
l 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.
l A sudden handle operation or a handle operation immediately after entering
the effective range may prevent the doors from being unlocked. Touch the
door unlock sensor and check that the doors are unlocked before pulling the
door handle again.
l Unlocking the vehicle may take more time if another electronic key is within
the effective range.
n When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
