lock/unlock the doors by performing any of the following (vehicles with entry func-
tion):
●Bring the electronic key close to either
front door handle and operate the
entry function.
●Operate the wireless remote control.
If the doors cannot be locked/unlocked
using the above methods, use the mechanical key. ( P.512)
If the engine cannot be started using the
smart entry & start system refer to P.512.
■Note for the entr y function (if
equipped)
●Even when the electronic key is within
the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the
window or outside door handle, 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 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.)
Page 126 of 678
1243-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
●Touching the door lock or unlock sen-
sor while wearing gloves may prevent lock or unlock operation.
●On some models: When the lock operation is performed using the lock
sensor, 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.122)
●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.538)
●Setting the electronic key to bat-
tery-saving mode helps to reduce key battery depletion. ( P.122)
■To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating th e system. Do not
get the electronic key too close to the
vehicle when operating the system from the outside of the vehicle.
Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the
system may not operate properly. (The alarm may go off accidentally, or the
door lock prevention function may not
operate.)
●Do not leave the electronic key inside
the trunk. The key confinement prevention func-
tion may not operate, depending on
the location of the key (the inside edge of the trunk), conditions (inside a
metal bag, close to metallic objects)
and the radio waves in the surround- ing area. ( P.120)

■Caution regarding interference
with electronic devices
●People with implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac
resynchronization therapy-pace-
makers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators should maintain a rea-
sonable distance between them-
selves and the smart entry & start
system antennas. ( P.121) The radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices. If neces-
sary, the entry function can be disa- bled. Ask any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer for details, such as the frequency of
radio waves and timing of the emit-
ted radio waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if you should disable
the entry function.
●Users of any electrical medical
device other than implantable car-
diac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy-pace-
makers or implantable cardioverter
defibrillators should consult the manufacturer of the device for infor-
mation about its operation under
the influence of radio waves. Radio waves could have unex-
pected effects on the operation of
such medical devices.
Ask any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer for details on disabling
the entry function.

■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other pas-
sengers are not injured by the mov-
ing seat.
●Do not put your hands under the
seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become
jammed in the seat mechanism.

stuck.
■Seat adjustment
●Be careful that the seat does not hit
passengers or luggage.
●To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than neces- sary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap
belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen, or your neck may contact
the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the
event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unex-
pectedly move and cause the driver
to lose control of the vehicle.
●After adjusting the seat, make sure
that the seat is locked in position.
