unlock the driver ’s door alone. Pushing
the switch twice within 3 seconds unlocks
all the side doors and back door simulta-
neously. Each time the unlock switch is
pushed, two beeps will be heard, and the

This double switch operation to unlock all
the side doors and back door can be

wireless remote control, the illuminated
entry function will be activated. (For fur-
ther information, see “Illuminated entry
system” on page 119 in Section 1−5.)
You have 30 seconds to open a door after
using the wireless remote unlock feature.
If a door is not opened by then, all the
side doors and back door will be automati-
cally locked again.
The time before automatic door lock func-
tion can be changed. For details, contact
your Toyota dealer.
If the lock or unlock switch is kept
pressed in, the locking or unlocking opera-
tion is not repeated. Release the switch
and then push again.
Pushing the alarm switch blows the
horn intermittently and flashes the

lights and turns on the interior and per-
sonal lights.

The alarm will last for one minute. To stop
alarm midway, push any of the switch on
the key. You can also stop the alarm by
turning the ignition key from the “LOCK”

CAUTION
To avoid death or serious personal
injury, you must do the following.
Before you close the power win-
dows, always make sure there is
nobody around the power windows.
You must also make sure the
heads, hands and other parts of the
bodies of all occupants are kept
completely inside the vehicle. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in a closing window, it
could result in death or serious in-
jury. When anyone closes the power
windows, make sure he or she op-
erates the windows safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
window switches without supervi-
sion. Use the window lock switch to
prevent them from making unex-
pected use of the switches.
Be sure to remove the ignition key
when you leave your vehicle.
Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could
use the power window switches and
get trapped in a window. Unat-
tended person (particularly a small
child) can be involved in a serious
accident.
