WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■Caution while driving
●Keep the back door closed while driving. If the back door is left open, it may hit near-by objects while driv-
ing or luggage may be unexpect- edly thrown out, causing an accident.
In addition, exhaust gases may enter the vehicle, causing death or a serious health hazard. Make sure
to close the back door before driv- ing.
●Before driving the vehicle, make sure that the back door is fully closed. If the back door is not fully
closed, it may open unexpectedly while driving, causing an accident.
●Never let anyone sit in the luggage compartment. In the event of sud-den braking or a collision, they are
susceptible to death or serious injury.
■When children are in the vehicle
●Do not allow children to play in the luggage compartment.
If a child is accidentally locked in the luggage compartment, they could have heat exhaustion or other
injuries.

WARNING
●Do not allow a child to open or close the back door.
Doing so may cause the back door to move unexpectedly, or cause the child’s hands, head, or neck to be
caught by the closing back door.
■Operating the back door
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Remove any heavy loads, such as
snow and ice, from the back door before opening it. Failure to do so may cause the back door to sud-
denly shut again after it is opened.
●When opening or closing the back
door, thoroughly check to make sure the surrounding area is safe.
●If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that the back door is about to
open or close.
●Use caution when opening or clos-
ing the back door in windy weather as it may move abruptly in strong wind.
●The back door may suddenly shut if it is not opened fully. It is more diffi-
cult to open or close the back door on an incline than on a level sur-face, so beware of the back door
unexpectedly opening or closing by itself. Make sure that the back door is fully open and secure before
using the luggage compartment.
●When closing the back door, take extra care to prevent your fingers, etc., from being caught.
●Do not pull on the back door damper stay ( P.101) to close the
back door, and do not hang on the back door damper stay. Doing so may cause hands to be caught or
the back door damper stay to break, causing an accident.
●If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy object is attached to the back door, it may suddenly shut again after
being opened, causing someone’s hands, head or neck to be caught and injured. When installing an
accessory part to the back door, using a genuine Toyota part is rec-ommended.

●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 vehicle battery from being discharged while the vehicle is not
operated for a long time.
●If the smart entry & start system has
not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors cannot be unlocked from any door except the driver’s door. In
this case, press the button on the driver’s door handle, or use the wire-less remote control or mechanical key
to unlock the doors.
■Electronic key battery-saving func- tion
●When battery-saving mode is set, bat-tery depletion is minimized by stop-ping the electronic key from receiving
radio waves.
Press twice while pressing and
holding . Confirm that the electronic
key indicator flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set,
the smart entry & start system cannot be
used. To cancel the function, press any
of the electronic key buttons.
●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 engine immobilizer system from
operating properly. (Ways of coping: P.334)
●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

If the doors cannot be locked/unlocked using the smart entry & start system,
lock/unlock the doors by performing any of the following:
●Bring the electronic key close to either front door handle and operate the entry function.
●Operate the wireless remote control.
If the doors cannot be locked/unlocked
using the above methods, use the mechanical key. ( P.334)
If the engine cannot be started using the
smart entry & start system refer to P.334.
■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas), the system may not operate properly
in the following cases: • The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or unlocked.• The electronic key is on the instru-
ment panel, luggage cover or floor, or glove box when the engine is started or engine switch modes are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel when exiting
the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the
cabin and the door will become lock- able from the outside, possibly trap-
ping the electronic 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 engine if the electronic key is near
the window.
●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.)
●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: • Place the electronic key in a location 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.103)
■Note for the unlocking function
●There are cases when pulling the door handle while pressing the Lock/Unlock button that the door will
not unlock. In those cases, after returning the door handle to the origi-nal position, press the Lock/Unlock
button once again and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle.
●If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly lon-
ger for the doors to unlock after the Lock/Unlock button is pressed.
