when the ignition is switched off. The system does not operate if the ignition
is switched to any position other than off.
● If the key does not operate when pressing a button or the operational range
becomes too small, the battery may be dead. To install a new battery, refer
to Key Battery Replacement ( →P. 436).

Before Driving
■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.

When Driving
After starting the engine, let it idle for about ten seconds.
●The key must be carried because the key carries an immobilizer chip that
must communicate with the engine controls at short range.
● The engine can be started when the push button start is pressed from off,
ACC, or ON.
● The push button start system functions (function which can start the engine
by only carrying the key) can be deactivated to prevent any possible
adverse effect on a user wearing a pacemaker or other medical device. If
the system is deactivated, you will be unable to start the engine by carrying
the key. Consult your Toyota dealer for details. If the push button start sys-
tem functions have been deactivated, you can start the engine by following
the procedure indicated when the key battery goes dead.
Refer to Engine Start Function When Key Battery is Dead on P. 145.
● After starting a cold engine, the engine speed increases and a whining
sound from the engine compartment can be heard.
This is for improved exhaust gas purification and does not indicate defect of
the parts.
● Engine-starting is controlled by the spark ignition system.
This system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Standard
requirements regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio noise.
● Under the following conditions, the KEY warning light (red) flashes after the
push button start is pressed to inform the driver that the push button start
will not switch to ACC even if it is pressed from off.
• The key battery is dead.
• The key is out of operational range.
• The key is placed in areas where it is difficult for the system to detect the
signal ( →P. 93).
• A key from another manufacturer similar to the key is in the operational
range.

3-1. Start/Stop Engine
●Forced engine starting method:
If the KEY warning light (red) illuminates, or the push button start indicator
light (amber) flashes, this could indicate that the engine may not start using
the usual starting method. Have your vehicle inspected at your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. If this occurs, the engine can be force-started.
Press and hold the push button start until the engine starts. Other proce-
dures necessary for starting the engine such as having the key in the cabin,
and depressing the clutch pedal (manual transaxle) or the brake pedal
(automatic transaxle) are required.
● When the engine is force-started, the KEY warning light (red) remains illumi-
nated and the push button start indicator light (amber) remains flashing.
● Automatic transaxle:
When the selector lever is in the neutral (N) position, the KEY indicator light
(green) and the push button start indicator light (green) do not illuminate.
● After pressing the push button start and before the engine starts, the opera-
tion sound of the fuel pump motor from near the fuel tank can be heard,
however, this does not indicate a malfunction.
● Whether the engine is cold or warm, it should be started without the use of
the accelerator.
● If the engine does not start the first time, refer to Starting a Flooded Engine
under Emergency Starting. If the engine still does not start, have your vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota dealer ( →P. 494).
WARNING
■Radio waves from the key may affect medical devices such as pace-
makers
Before using the key near people who use medical devices, ask the medical
device manufacturer or your physician if radio waves from the key will affect
the device.
NOTICE
If the KEY warning light (red) illuminates, or the push button start indicator
light (amber) flashes, this could indicate a problem with the engine starting
system and the inability to start the engine or switch the ignition to ACC or
ON. Have your vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

Interior Features
Operating Tips for Audio System
Do not spill any liquid on the audio
system.
Do not insert any objects, other
than CDs, into the slot.
●To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the audio system
on for a long period of time when the engine is not running.
● If a cellular phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause
noise to occur from the audio system, however, this does not indicate that
the system has been damaged.
WARNING
■Always adjust the audio wh ile the vehicle is stopped
Do not adjust the audio control switches while driving the vehicle. Adjusting
the audio while driving the vehicle is dangerous as it could distract your
attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a serious accident.
Even if the audio control switches are equipped on the steering wheel, learn
to use the switches without looking down at them so that you can keep your
maximum attention on the road while driving the vehicle.
NOTICE
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the audio volume to a level that
allows you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle including car horns and
particularly emergency vehicle sirens.

4-2. Audio System
■AM characteristics
AM signals bend around such things as buildings or mountains and
bounce off the ionosphere.
Therefore, they can reach longer distances than FM signals.
Because of this, two stations may sometimes be picked up on the
same frequency at the same time.
Ionosphere
Station 1
Station 2
■FM characteristics
An FM broadcast range is usually about 25 - 30 miles (40 - 50 km)
from the source. Because of extra coding needed to break the
sound into two channels, stereo FM has even less range than mon-
aural (non-stereo) FM.FM Station
