2-7. Security System
■Arming
The system is armed when the
ignition is switched from ON to
off.
The security indicator light in
the combination meter flashes
every 2 seconds until the sys-
tem is disarmed.
■Disarming
The system is disarmed when the ignition is switched ON with the
correct programmed key. The security indicator light illuminates for
about 3 seconds and then turns of f. If the engine does not start with
the correct key, and th e security indicator light remains illuminated
or flashing, try the following:
Make sure the key is within the operational range for signal trans-
mission. Switch the ignition off, and then restart the engine. If the
engine does not start after 3 or more tries, contact your Toyota
dealer.
● The engine may not start and security indicator light may illuminate or flash
if the key is placed in an area where it is difficult for the system to detect the
signal, such as on the dashboard or in the glove compartment. Move the
key to a location within the signal range, switch the ignition off, and then
restart the engine.
● Signals from a TV or radio station, or from a transceiver or mobile telephone
could interfere with your immobilizer system. If you are using the proper key
and the engine fails to start, check the security indicator light.
● If the security indicator light flashes continuously while you are driving, do
not shut off the engine. Go to your Toyota dealer and have it checked. If the
engine is shut off while the indicator light is flashing, you will not be able to
restart it.
● Because the electronic codes are reset when the immobilizer system is
repaired, the keys are needed. Make sure to bring all the keys to your Toy-
ota dealer so that they can be programmed.

These lights turn on or flash to notify the user of the system operation
status or a system malfunction.

k, and turns off a few seconds later or when the engine is started. If the light

3-3. Transaxle
■Recommendations for shifting
●Upshifting
For normal acceleration and cruisi ng, Toyota recommends these
shift points:
*1: Always observe local speed limit regulations.
● Downshifting
When you must slow down in heavy traffic or on a steep upgrade,
downshift before the engine starts to overwork. This gives better
acceleration when you need more speed.
On a steep downgrade, downshifting helps maintain safe speed
and prolongs brake life.
■ Manual Shift Mode
●Changing to manual shift mode while driving will not damage the transaxle.
● If you change to manual shift mode when the vehicle is stopped, the gear
will shift to M1.
● If you change to manual shift mode without depressing the accelerator
pedal when driving in D range, 5th gear/6th gear, the gear will shift to M4/
M5.
■ Indicators
●If the gears cannot be shifted down when driving at higher speeds, the gear
position indication will flash twice to signal that the gears cannot be shifted
down (to protect the transaxle).
● If the automatic transaxle fluid (ATF) temperature becomes too high, there is
the possibility that the transaxle will switch to automatic shift mode, cancel-
ing manual shift mode and turning off the gear position indication illumina-
tion. This is a normal function to protect the AT. After the ATF temperature
has decreased, the gear position indication illumination turns back on a\
nd
driving in manual shift mode is restored.

3-4. Switches and Controls
■To turn on the lights
When the ignition switch and the headlight switch are in the follow-
ing conditions, the headlights will illuminate when the smart key
unlock button is pressed and the vehicle receives the smart key sig-
nal. The headlights turn off after a certain period of time has
elapsed (30 seconds).• Ignition switch: off
• Headlight switch: or
Lock button
Unlock button
● Operation of the leaving home light can be turned on or off.
Refer to Customizable Features on P. 560.
● When the smart key lock button is pressed and the vehicle receives the
smart key signal, the headlights turn off.
● When the headlight switch is in a position other than or , the head-
lights turn off.
Some countries require moving vehicles to have their lights on (day-
time running lights) during the daytime.
The daytime running lights turn on automatically when the vehicle
starts moving.
They turn off when the parking brake is operated or the shift lever is
shifted to the P position (automatic transaxle vehicle).
Except Canada:
The daytime running lights can be deactivated.
Refer to Customizable Features on P. 560.

3-4. Switches and Controls
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The ignition must be switched ON to use the turn and lane-change
signals.
Move the signal lever down (for a
left turn) or up (for a right turn) to
the stop position. The signal will
self-cancel after the turn is com-
pleted.
If the indicator light continues to
flash after a turn, manually return
the lever to its original position.
The turn signal indicators (green)
in the combination meter flash
according to the operation of the
turn signal lever to show which
signal is working.
●If an indicator light stays on without flashing or if it flashes abnormally, one
of the turn signal bulbs may be burned out.
● A customized function is available to change the turn indicator sound vol-
ume. ( →P. 560)
Move the lever halfway toward the direction of the lane change—until
the indicator flashes—and hold it ther e. It will return to the off position
when released.
