Before driving
■Effective range (areas within which
the electronic key is detected)
When locking or unlocking the doors
The system can be operated when the
electronic key is within about 0.7 m (2.3
ft.) of an outside front door handle and
back door. (Only the doors detecting the
key can be operated.)
When starting the hybrid system or
changing power switch modes
The system can be operated when the
electronic key is inside the vehicle.
■Alarms and warning messages
A combination of exterior and interior
buzzers as well as warning messages shown on the multi-information display are used to prevent theft of the vehicle
and accidents resulting from erroneous operation. Take appropriate measures based on the displayed message.
( P.449)
When only an alarm sounds, circum-
stances and correction procedures are as follows.
●Exterior buzzer sounds once for 5 seconds
●Interior buzzer sounds continuously
■Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be acti- vated in order to prevent the electronic
key battery and the 12-volt battery from being discharged while the vehicle is not operated for a long time.
●In the following situations, the smart entry & start system may take some
time to unlock the doors. • The electronic key has been left within approximately 3.5 m (11 ft.) of the out-
side of the vehicle for 2 minutes or longer.• The smart entry & start system has
not been used for 5 days or longer.

●Electronic keys that will not be used
for long periods of time can be set to the battery-saving mode in advance.
■Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses
weak radio waves. In the following situa- tions, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control and immobilizer system from operating
properly. (Ways of coping: P.474)
●When the electronic key battery is
depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio station, large dis- play, airport or other facility that gen-erates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
●When carrying a portable radio, cellu-
lar phone, cordless phone or other wireless communication device
●When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum
foil inside • Metallic wallets or bags• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal • Media such as CDs and DVDs
●When other wireless keys (that emit
radio waves) are being used nearby
●When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices
that emit radio waves • Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digi- tal assistants (PDAs)• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
●I f w i n d o w t i n t w i t h a m e t a l l i c c o n t e n t o r
metallic objects are attached to the rear window
●When the electronic key is placed near a battery charger or electronic devices

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
Before driving
of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave recep-tion conditions, it may be detected by
the antenna outside the cabin and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the elec-
tronic key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is within
the effective range, the doors may be locked or unlocked by anyone. How-ever, only the doors detecting the
electronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.
●Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start the hybrid system if the electronic key
is near the window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a
large amount of water splashes on the door handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash when the electronic key is
within the effective range. (The doors will automatically be locked after approximately 30 seconds if the doors
are not opened and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is used
to lock the doors when the electronic key is near the vehicle, there is a pos-sibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock the doors.)
●Touching the door lock or unlock sen-sor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation.
●When the lock operation is performed
using the lock sensor, recognition sig- nals will be shown up to two consecu-tive 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. In that case, follow
the following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:• P l ac e t h e e l ec t ro n ic ke y i n a l oc at i o n 2
m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi- cle. (Take care to ensure that the key
is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-sav- ing mode to disable the smart entry & start system. ( P.153)
●If the electronic key is inside the vehi- cle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information dis-play and a buzzer will sound outside
the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors.
●The lock sensor may not work prop-erly if it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor
and attempt to operate it again.
●A sudden handle operation or a han-
dle operation immediately after enter- ing the effective range may prevent the doors from being unlocked. Touch
the door unlock sensor and check that the doors are unlocked before pulling the door handle again.
●If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly lon-
ger 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 2 m (6
ft.) of the vehicle.
●The smart entry & start system can be
deactivated in advance. ( P.498)
●Setting the electronic key to battery-
saving mode helps to reduce key bat- tery depletion. ( P.153)
■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 vehi-cle 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.)

WARNING
■Caution regarding interference with electronic devices
●People with implantable cardiac
pacemakers, cardiac resynchroni- zation therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrilla-
tors should maintain a reasonable distance between themselves and the smart entry & start system
antennas. ( P.152) The radio waves may affect the operation of such devices. If neces-
sary, the entry function can be dis- abled. Ask any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer for details, such as the frequency of radio waves and timing of the emit-
ted radio waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if you should disable the entry function.
●Users of any electrical medical device other than implantable car-diac pacemakers, cardiac resyn-
chronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibril-lators should consult the manufac-
turer of the device for information about its operation under the influ-ence of radio waves.
Radio waves could have unex- pected effects on the operation of such medical devices.
Ask any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer for details on disabling the entry function.

WARNING
■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other pas-sengers are not injured by the mov-
ing seat.
●Do not put your hands under the
seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.Fingers or hands may become
jammed in the seat mechanism.
●Make sure to leave enough space
around the feet so they do not get stuck.
■Seat adjustment
●Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
●To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than neces- sary.If the seat is too reclined, the lap
belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact
the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unex-pectedly move and cause the driver
to lose control of the vehicle.
●After adjusting the seat, make sure
that the seat is locked in position.
NOTICE
