WARNING
■When the Emergency Call may not be made
● It may not be possible to make Emergency Calls in any of the following sit-
uations. In such cases, report to emergency services provider (112 system
etc.) by other means such as nearby public phones.
• Even when the vehicle is in the cellular phone service area, it may be
difficult to connect to the eCall control center if the reception is poor or
the line is busy. In such cases, even though the system attempts to con-
nect to the eCall control center, you may not be able to connect to the
eCall control center to make Emergency Calls and contact emergency
services.
• When the vehicle is out of the cellular phone service area, the Emer-
gency Calls cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such as the “SOS” button panel, indicator
lights, microphone, speaker, DCM, antenna, or any wires connecting
the equipment) is malfunctioning, damaged or broken, the Emergency
Call cannot be made.
• During an Emergency Call, the system makes repeated attempts to
connect to the eCall control center. However, if it cannot connect to the
eCall control center due to poor radio wave reception, the system may
not be able to connect to the cellular network and the call may finish
without connecting. The red indicator light will blink for approximately 30
seconds to indicate this disconnection.
● If the battery’s voltage decreases or there is a disconnection, the system
may not be able to connect to the eCall control center.
● The Emergency Call system might not work outside of EU area, depend-
ing on the available infrastructure in the country.
■ When the Emergency Call system is replaced with a new one
The Emergency Call system should be registered. Contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

Operation of each component
HILUX_OM_OM0K789E_(EE)
■ If you lose your keys
New genuine keys can be made by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer using a master key (vehicles with-
out smart entry & start system) or the other key of the same type (vehicles
with smart entry & start system), and the key number stamped on your key
number plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the
vehicle.
■ When riding in an aircraft (type B and C)
When bringing a key with wireless remote control function onto an aircraft,
make sure you do not press any buttons on the key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying the key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons are
not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the key to
emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
■ Key battery depletion
Vehicles without smart entry & start system
If the wireless remote control function does not operate, the battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery when necessary. ( P. 516)
Vehicles with smart entry & start system
 P. 166
■ If a message regarding the state of the electronic key or engine switch
mode, etc. is shown

without turning off the engine switch or other passengers from unintentionally
taking the key out of the vehicle, etc., a message that prompts the user to
confirm the state of the electronic key or engine switch mode may be shown
on the multi-information display. In those cases, follow the instructions on the
display immediately.
■ If “Key battery low” is shown on the multi-information display

NOTICE
■To prevent key damage
● Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.

● Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer etc.
● Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys
close to such materials.

problems (vehicles with smart entry & start system)
Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle to
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.

cantly. Visit any authorized Toyota reta iler or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer imm ediately with all remaining electronic keys that
were provided with your vehicle.
