QWhen riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any
buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carry-ing an electronic key in your bag etc.,
ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a but-ton may cause the electronic key to emit
radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
QElectronic key battery depletion
OThe standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
OIf the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin and a message will be displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display when the hybrid system
stops.
OTo reduce key battery depletion when
the electronic key is to not be used for long periods of time, set the electronic key to the battery-saving mode.
( P.222)
OAs the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the battery will become depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms
indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when necessary.
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper-ate.
• The detection area becomes smaller. • The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself
( P.486). However, as there is a dan-
ger that the electronic key may be dam-
aged, it is recommended that
replacement is carried out by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
OTo avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 1 m (3
ft.) of the following electrical appli- ances that produce a magnetic field:•TVs
• Personal computers • Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
•Table lamps • Induction cookers
OIf the electronic key is near the vehicle for longer than necessary, even if the smart entry & start system is not oper-
ated, the key battery may become depleted faster than normal.
QIf a message regarding the state of the electronic key or power switch
mode, etc. is shown
To prevent trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle, leaving the vehicle
carrying the electronic key on your per- son without turning the power switch to

The number of keys already registered
to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for details.
QIf “A New Key has been Registered Contact Your Dealer for Details” is displayed on the multi-information
display
This message will be displayed each time the driver’s door is opened when
the doors are unlocked from the outside for approximately 10 days after a new electronic key has been registered.
If this message is displayed but you have not had a new electronic key regis-tered, ask any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer to check if an unknown electronic key (other than those in your
possession) has been registered.

NOTICE
QTo prevent key damage
ODo not drop the keys, subject them
to strong shocks or bend them.
ODo not expose the keys to high
temperatures for long periods of time.
ODo not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer, etc.
ODo not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys close to such materials.
ODo not disassemble the keys.
ODo not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic key.
ODo not place the keys near objects that produce magnetic fields, such
as TVs, audio systems and induc- tion cookers.

microwave therapy equipment, and do not receive medical attention with the keys on your person.
QCarrying the electronic key on your person
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appli-ances that are turned on. Radio
