Operation of each component
4RUNNER (U)_(OM35B37U)■
Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the electronic
key battery and the vehicle battery from being discharged while the vehicle is
not in operation for a long time.
●In the following situations, the smart key system may take some time to
unlock the doors.
• The electronic key has been left in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of
the outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.
• The smart key system has not been used for 5 days or longer.
● If the smart key system has not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors
cannot be unlocked at any doors except the driver’s door. In this case, take
hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote control or the
mechanical key, to unlock the doors.
The system will resume operation when
● The vehicle is locked using the door handle lock switch when carrying the
electronic key on your person.
● The vehicle is locked/unlocked using the wireless remote control.
(→P. 97)
● The vehicle is locked/unlocked using the mechanical key. ( →P. 451)
■ Conditions affecting operation
The smart key system uses weak radio waves. In the following situations, the
communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be affected,
preventing the smart key system, wireless remote control and engine immobi-
lizer system from operating properly. (Ways of coping: →P. 451)
● When the electronic key battery is depleted
● Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-

Operation of each component
4RUNNER (U)_(OM35B37U)■
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.
● Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the
key may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly.
(The alarm may go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention function may
not operate.)

Operation of each component
4RUNNER (U)_(OM35B37U)
■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 nothing is caught between
the board and the vehicle.
Additionally, if the engine is started immediately after a door has been closed,
the automatic running board may not retract completely and the automatic
running boards indicator may illuminate. In this case, open and close the door
to retract the running board and turn off the indicator.
■ If the Automatic running boa rds 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.
■ After recharging/reco nnecting the battery
If the Automatic running boards have not completely extended or retracted,
the boards may not move in the intended direction the first time they are oper-
ated. However, from the second time onwards, the boards will resume normal
operation.
■ When getting in and out of the vehicle
Take care because clothes and shoes may become dirty due to contact with
the lower part of the vehicle body.
