3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
Before driving
• The electronic key is on the instru- 
ment panel, luggage cover or floor, or  in the door pockets 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 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 engine 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.
●Some models: When the lock opera-
tion is performed using the lock sen- sor, recognition signals will be shown  
up to two consecutive 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: • 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.138)
●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  
longer 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.577)
●Setting the electronic key to bat- tery-saving mode helps to reduce key  
battery depletion. ( P.138)
■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

●Do not shift the shift lever to a driv- 
ing position while the vehicle is 
moving backward. Doing so can damage the transmis- 
sion and may result in a loss of 
vehicle control.
●Moving the shift lever to N while the 
vehicle is moving will disengage the 
engine from the transmission.  Engine braking is not available  
when N is selected.
●Vehicles with a Multidrive: Be care-
ful not to shift the shift lever with the 
accelerator pedal depressed. Shift- ing the shift lever to any positions  
other than P or N may lead to unex-
pected rapid acceleration of the  vehicle that may cause an accident  
and result in death or serious injury.
■If you hear a squealing or scrap-
ing noise (brake pad wear indica-
tors) 
Have the front and rear brake pads  
checked at the same time and 
replaced by any authorized Toyota  retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,  
or any reliable repairer as soon as 
possible. 
Rotor damage may result if the pads  
are not replaced when needed. 
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle  
when the wear limits of the brake  pads and/or those of the brake discs  
are exceeded.
■When the vehicle is stopped
●Do not race the engine.
If the vehicle is in any gear other  than P (Multidrive) or N, the vehicle  
may accelerate suddenly and unex-
pectedly, causing an accident.
●Vehicles with a Multidrive: In order  to prevent accidents due to the  
vehicle rolling away, always keep 
depressing the brake pedal while  the engine is running, and apply the  
parking brake as necessary.
●If the vehicle is stopped on an 
incline, in order to prevent acci-
dents caused by the vehicle rolling  forward or backward, always  
depress the brake pedal and 
securely apply the parking brake as  needed.
●Avoid revving or racing the engine.Running the engine at high speed  
while the vehicle is stopped may 
cause the exhaust system to over- heat, which could result in a fire if  
combustible material is nearby.
■When the vehicle is parked
●Do not leave glasses, cigarette 
lighters, spray cans, or soft drink  cans in the vehicle when it is in the  
sun.
Doing so may result in the follow- ing: 
• Gas may leak from a cigarette  
lighter or spray can, and may lead  to a fire. 
• The temperature inside the vehicle  may cause the plastic lenses and  
plastic material of glasses to 
deform or crack. 
• Soft drink cans may fracture, caus- 
ing the contents to spray over the  interior of the vehicle, and may also  
cause a short circuit in the vehicle’s 
electrical components.
●Do not leave cigarette lighters in the 
vehicle. If a cigarette lighter is in a 
place such as the glove box or on  the floor, it may be lit accidentally  
when luggage is loaded or the seat 
is adjusted, causing a fire.

■Items that should not be left in  
the storage spaces 
Do not leave glasses, lighters or  spray cans in the storage spaces, as  
this may cause the following when 
cabin temperature becomes high:
●Glasses may be deformed by heat  or cracked if they come into contact  
with other stored items.
●Lighters or spray cans may 
explode. If they come into contact

Maintenance and care
When replacing wheels, care  
should be taken to ensure that they 
are equivalent to those removed in 
load capacity, diameter, rim width  
and inset*. 
Replacement wheels are available  
at any authorized Toyota retailer or 
Toyota authorized repairer, or any 
reliable repairer.
*: Conventionally referred to as offset.
Toyota does not recommend using 
the following: 
 Wheels of different sizes or types 
 Used wheels 
 Bent wheels that have been  
straightened
■When replacing wheels (vehicles  
with a tire pressure warning sys- tem) 
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped  
with tire pressure warning valves and  transmitters that allow the tire pressure  
warning system to provide advance 
warning in the event of a loss in tire  inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are  
replaced, the tire pressure warning 
valves and transmitters must be  installed. ( P.482)
■When removing the wheel orna- 
ment (vehicles with a wheel cap  clip) 
Remove the wheel ornament using the  
wheel cap clip*.*: The wheel cap clip is installed in the  
glove box. ( P.440)
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or  
heavily corroded, it should be 
replaced. Otherwise, the tire 
may separate from the wheel 
or cause a loss of handling 
control.
Wheel selection
WA R N I N G
■When replacing wheels
●Do not use wheels that are a differ- 
ent size from those recommended 
in the Owner’s Manual, as this may  result in a loss of handling control.
●Never use an inner tube in a leak-ing wheel which is designed for a  
tubeless tire.
Doing so may result in an accident,  causing death or serious injury.
■When installing the wheel nuts
●Be sure to install the wheel nuts  
with the tapered ends facing 
inward. ( P.547) Installing the nuts  with the tapered ends facing out- 
ward can cause the wheel to break 
and eventually cause the wheel to  come off while driving, which could  
lead to an accident resulting in 
death or serious injury.
