●When the vehicle is parked in a pay parking spot where radio waves are
emitted
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.

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.102) 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.
