WARNING

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

■

Before driving

●

Make sure that the trunk lid is

fully closed. If the trunk lid is not

fully closed, it may open unex-

pectedly while driving and hit

near-by objects or luggage in

the trunk may be thrown out,

causing an accident.

●

Do not allow children to play in

the trunk.

If a child is accidentally locked

in the trunk, they could suffer

from heat exhaustion, suffoca-

tion or other injuries.

●

Do not allow a child to open or

close the trunk lid.

Doing so may cause the trunk

lid to open unexpectedly, or

cause the child’s hands, head,

or neck to be caught by the

closing trunk lid.

■

Important points while driving

Never let anyone sit in the trunk.

In the event of sudden braking or

a collision, they are susceptible to

death or serious injury.

■

Using the trunk

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may cause parts

of the body to be caught, resulting

in serious injury.

●

Remove any heavy loads, such

as snow and ice, from the trunk

lid before opening it. Failure to

do so may cause the trunk lid to

suddenly shut again after it is

opened.

●

When opening or closing the

trunk lid, thoroughly check to

make sure the surrounding area

is safe.

●

If anyone is in the vicinity, make

sure they are safe and let them

know that the trunk is about to

open or close.

●

Use caution when opening or

closing the trunk lid in windy

weather as it may move

abruptly in strong wind.

●

The trunk lid may suddenly shut

if it is not opened fully. It is more

difficult to open or close the

trunk lid on an incline than on a

level surface, so beware of the

trunk lid unexpectedly opening

or closing by itself. Make sure

that the trunk lid is fully open

and secure before using the

trunk.

●

When closing the trunk lid, take

extra care to prevent your fin-

gers etc. from being caught.

radio waves. In the following situa-
tions, the communication between
the electronic key and the vehicle
may be affected, preventing the
smart key system, wireless remote
control and engine immobilizer sys-
tem from operating properly.

Note for the entry function

●

Even when the electronic key is
within the effective range (detec-
tion areas), the system may not
operate properly in the following
cases:

• The electronic key is too close to

the window or outside door han-
dle, near the ground, or in a high
place when the doors are locked
or unlocked.

• The electronic key is near the

ground or in a high place, or too
close to the center of the rear
bumper when the trunk is opened.

• The electronic key is on the instru-

ment panel, rear package tray 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 reception conditions, it may
be detected by the antenna out-
side the cabin and the door will
become lockable from the outside,
possibly trapping 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. However, 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 possi-
ble to start the engine if the elec-
tronic key is near the window.

●

The doors may unlock or lock if a
large amount of water splashes on

117

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors

Before driving

the door handle, such as in the
rain or in a car wash when the
electronic key is within the effec-
tive range. (The doors will auto-
matically be locked after
approximately 60 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 possibility that the door
may not be unlocked by the entry
function. (Use the wireless remote
control to unlock the doors.)

●

If the doors have been locked
from outside of the vehicle and are
then not unlocked using the wire-
less remote control or smart key
system, the engine cannot be
started using the smart key sys-
tem. (However, if the doors have
been locked from inside the vehi-
cle, the engine can be started
using the smart key system.)
If it is necessary to start the
engine, it can be started using the
procedure in “If the electronic key
dose not operate properly”
(

P.376).

●

Touching the door lock or unlock
sensor while wearing gloves may
prevent lock or unlock operation.

●

When the lock operation is per-
formed using the lock sensor, rec-
ognition 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 effective range, the door may
lock and unlock repeatedly. In that
case, follow the following correc-
tion procedures to wash the vehi-
cle:

• Place the electronic key in a loca-

tion 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from
the vehicle. (Take care to ensure
that the key is not stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to bat-

tery-saving mode to disable the
smart key system. (



P.115)

●

If the electronic key is inside the
vehicle and a door handle
becomes wet during a car wash, a
message may be shown on the
multi-information display and a
buzzer will sound outside the vehi-
cle. To turn off the alarm, lock all
the doors.

●

The lock sensor may not work
properly 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
handle operation immediately
after entering 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
6 ft. (2 m) of the vehicle.

●

The smart key system can be
deactivated in advance. (

●

Setting the electronic key to bat-
tery-saving mode helps to reduce
key battery depletion. (

P.115)

■

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 vehicle when operat-
ing the system from the outside of
the vehicle.

Depending on the position and hold-
ing condition of the electronic key,
the key may not be detected cor-
rectly and the system may not oper-
ate properly. (The alarm may go off
accidentally, or the door lock pre-
vention function may not operate.)

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors

●

Do not leave the electronic key

inside the trunk.

The key confinement prevention

function may not operate, depend-

ing on the location of the key (the

inside edge of the trunk), condi-

tions (inside a metal bag, close to

metallic objects) and the radio

waves in the surrounding area.

The radio waves may affect the

operation of such devices. If

necessary, the entry function

can be disabled. Ask your Toy-

ota dealer for details, such as

the frequency of radio waves

and timing of the emitted radio

waves. Then, consult your doc-

tor to see if you should disable

the entry function.

●

Users of any electrical medical

device other than implantable

cardiac pacemakers, cardiac

resynchronization ther-

apy-pacemakers or implantable

cardioverter defibrillators should

consult the manufacturer of the

device for information about its

operation under the influence of

radio waves.
