●To reduce key battery depletion
when the electronic key is to not
be used for long periods of time,
set the electronic key to the bat-
tery-saving mode. ( P.121)
●As the electronic key always
receives radio waves, the battery

battery consumption. The function
will be restored automatically when
the electronic key is moved, such as
it is picked up.
■If “A New Key has been Regis-
tered Contact Your Dealer for
Details” is shown on the
multi-information display (vehi-
cles with a smart key system)
This message will be displayed
each time the driver’s door is
opened when the doors are
unlocked from the outside for
approximately 10 days after a new
electronic key has been registered.
If this message is displayed but you
have not had a new electronic key
registered, ask your Toyota dealer to
check if an unknown electronic key
(other than those in your posses-
sion) has been registered.

wireless remote control func-
tion)
The key cylinder rotates freely, iso-
lated from the internal mechanism.
