Using the mechanical key (vehicles
with a smart entry & start system)
To take out the mechanical key,
slide the release lever and take
the key out.
After using the mechanical key,
store it in the electronic key. Carry
the mechanical key together with
the electronic key. If the electronic
key battery is depleted or entry
function does not operate prop-
erly, you will need the mechanical
key. (→P. 455)
■Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place, not in the vehicle. In the event that a key
(without a smart entry & start system) or mechanical key (with a smart entry
& start system) is lost, a new key can be made by any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional, using
the key number plate. ( →P. 454)
■ When riding in an aircraft
When bringing a key with wireless remote control function onto an aircraft,
make sure you do not press any buttons on the key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying the key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons
are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.

NOTICE
■
To prevent key damage
Observe the following:
●Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.
● Do not expose the keys to high temperatures for a long period of time.
● Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer etc.
● Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys
close to such materials.
● Do not disassemble the keys.
● Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the key.
● Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: Do not place the keys near
objects that produce magnetic fields, such as TVs, audio systems, induc-
tion cookers, or medical electrical equipment, such as low-frequency ther-
apy equipment.
■ Carrying the electronic key on your person (vehicles with a smart entry
& start system)
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appli-
ances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances
within 10 cm (3.9 in.) of the electronic key may interfere with the key, causing
the key to not function properly.
■ In case of a smart entry & start syst em malfunction or other key-related
problems (vehicles with a smart entry & start system)
Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle to
any authorized Toyota dealer or re pairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
■ When a vehicle key is lost
If the key remains lost, the risk of vehicle theft increases significantly. Visit
any authorized Toyota dealer or re pairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional immediately with all remaining keys that was provided
with your vehicle.
