Safety Connect is available begin-

ning Fall 2009 on select Toyota 

models (in the contiguous United 

States only). Contact with the 

Safety Connect response center 

is dependent upon the telematics 

device being in operative condi-

tion, cellular connection availabil-

ity, and GPS satellite signal 

reception, which can limit the abil-

ity to reach the response center or 

receive emergency service sup-

port. Enrollment and Telematics 

Subscription Service Agreement 

are required. A variety of subscrip-

tion terms are available; charges 

vary by subscription term selected

When the engine switch is 
turned to ON, the red indicator 
light comes on for 2 seconds 
then turns off. Afterward, the 
green indicator light comes on, 
indicating that the service is 
active.
The following indicator light pat-
terns indicate specific system 
usage conditions:

Green indicator light on = 
Active service

Green indicator light flashing 
= Safety Connect call in pro-
cess

Red indicator light (except at 
vehicle start-up) = System 
malfunction (contact your 
Toyota dealer)

No indicator light (off) = 
Safety Connect service not 
active

Automatic Collision Notifi-
cation

In case of either airbag deploy-
ment or severe rear-end colli-
sion, the system is designed to 
automatically call the response 
center. The responding agent 
receives the vehicle’s location 
and attempts to speak with the 
vehicle occupants to assess the 

level of emergency. If the occu-
pants are unable to communi-
cate, the agent automatically 
treats the call as an emergency, 
contacts the nearest emer-
gency services provider to 
describe the situation, and 
requests that assistance be sent 
to the location.

Stolen Vehicle Location

If your vehicle is stolen, Safety 
Connect can work with local 
authorities to assist them in 
locating and recovering the 
vehicle. After filing a police 
report, call the Customer Experi-
ence Center at 1-800-331-4331 
in the United States, 1-877-855-
8377 in Puerto Rico or 1-888-
869-6828 in Canada, and follow 
the prompts for Safety Connect 
to initiate this service.
In addition to assisting law 
enforcement with recovery of a 
stolen vehicle, Safety-Connect-
equipped vehicle location data 
may, under certain circum-
stances, be shared with third 
parties to locate your vehicle. 
Further information is available 
at Toyota.com in the United 
States, Toyotapr.com in Puerto 
Rico and Toyota.ca in Canada.

Exposure to radio fre-
quency signals

The Safety Connect system 
installed in your vehicle is a low-

power radio transmitter and 
receiver. It receives and also 
sends out radio frequency (RF) 
signals.
In August 1996, the Federal 
Communications Commission 
(FCC) adopted RF exposure 
guidelines with safety levels for 
mobile wireless phones. Those 
guidelines are consistent with 
the safety standards previously 
set by the following U.S. and 
international standards bodies.

ANSI (American National 
Standards Institute) C95.1 
[1992]

NCRP (National Council on 
Radiation Protection and 
Measurement) Report 86 
[1986]

ICNIRP (International Com-
mission on Non-Ionizing Radi-
ation Protection) [1996]

Those standards were based on 
comprehensive and periodic 
evaluations of the relevant sci-
entific literature. Over 120 scien-
tists, engineers, and physicians 
from universities, and govern-
ment health agencies and 
industries reviewed the avail-
able body of research to 
develop the ANSI Standard 
(C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect 
complies with the FCC guide-
lines in addition to those stan-
dards.

Vehicles without smart key 
system

The indicator light flashes after 
the key has been removed from 
the engine switch to indicate 
that the system is operating.
The indicator light goes off after 
the registered key has been 
inserted into the engine switch 
to indicate that the system has 
been canceled.

Vehicles with smart key sys-
tem

The indicator light flashes after

turned to ACC or ON to indicate 
that the system has been can-
celed.

System maintenance

The vehicle has a maintenance-free 

type engine immobilizer system.

Conditions that may cause the 

system to malfunction

If the grip portion of the key is in 

contact with a metallic object

If the key is in close proximity to or 

touching a key to the security sys-

tem (key with a built-in transpon-

der chip) of another vehicle

Engine immobilizer 

system

The vehicle’s keys have 
built-in transponder chips 
that prevent the engine from 
starting if a key has not 
been previously registered 
in the vehicle’s on-board 
computer.
Never leave the keys inside 
the vehicle when you leave 
the vehicle.

This system is designed to 
help prevent vehicle theft but 
does not guarantee absolute 
security against all vehicle 
thefts.
