HILUX_OM_OM0K321E_(EE)
When the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles with-
out smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with
smart entry & start system), the red indicator light will illuminate for 10
seconds and then the green indicator light will illuminate, indicating
that the system is enabled. The indicator lights indicate the following:
● If the green indicator light illuminates and stays on, the system is
enabled.
● If the green indicator light flashes twice per second, an automatic or
manual Emergency Call is being made.
● If no indicator lights illuminate, the system is not enabled.
● If the red indicator light illuminates at any time other than immedi-
ately after the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles
without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehi-
cles with smart entry & start system), the system may be malfunc-
tioning or the backup battery may be depleted.
● If the red indicator light blinks for approximately 30 seconds during
an Emergency Call, the call has been disconnected or the cellular
network signal is weak.
The service life of the backup battery does not exceed 3 years.
A test mode is provided for to check the performance of the Emer-
gency Call system. To test the device, contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

For safety and security
WARNING
■When the Emergency Call may not be made
● It may not be possible to make Emergency Calls in any of the following sit-
uations. In such cases, report to emergency services provider (112 system
etc.) by other means such as nearby public phones.
• Even when the vehicle is in the cellular phone service area, it may be
difficult to connect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control center if the
reception is poor or the line is busy. In such cases, even though the sys-
tem attempts to connect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control center,
you may not be able to connect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control
center to make Emergency Calls and contact emergency services.
• When the vehicle is out of the cellular phone service area, the Emer-
gency Calls cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such as the “SOS” button panel, indicator
lights, microphone, speaker, DCM, antenna, or any wires connecting
the equipment) is malfunctioning, damaged or broken, the Emergency
Call cannot be made.
• During an Emergency Call, the system makes repeated attempts to
connect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control center. However, if it can-
not connect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control center due to poor
radio wave reception, the system may not be able to connect to the cel-
lular network and the call may finish without connecting. The red indica-
tor light will blink for approximately 30 seconds to indicate this
disconnection.
• This device may not function if a shock is applied to it.
● If the battery’s voltage decreases or there is a disconnection, the system
may not be able to connect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control center.
■ When the Emergency Call system is replaced with a new one
The Emergency Call system should be registered. Contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

1683-1. Key information
HILUX_OM_OM0K321E_(EE)
■ If you lose your keys
New genuine keys can be made by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer using a master key (vehicles with-
out smart entry & start system) or the other key of the same type (vehicles
with smart entry & start system), and the key number stamped on your key
number plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the
vehicle.
■ When riding in an aircraft (type C, D, E and F)
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.
■ Key battery depletion
Vehicles without smart entry & start system
If the wireless remote control function does not operate, the battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery when necessary. ( P. 599)
