Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of key.
1. Master key—This key works in every
lock.
2. Sub key—This key will not work in the
glove box.
To protect things locked in the glove box
when you have your vehicle parked, leave
the sub key with the attendant.
Since the doors can be locked without a
key, you should always carry a spare
master key in case you accidentally lock
your keys inside the vehicle.KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you
need additional keys, duplicates can be
made by a Toyota dealer using the key
number.
We recommend you to write down the key
number and keep it in safe place.Your vehicle is supplied with the two
kinds of key.
1. Master key (black)—This key works in
every lock. Your Toyota dealer will
need it to make you a new key with
built−in transponder chip.
2. Sub key (gray)—This key will not work
in the glove box.
A transponder chip for engine immobiliser
system has been filled in the head of the
master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the system
or start the engine.

To protect things locked in the glove box
when you have your vehicle parked, leave
the sub key with the attendant.
Since the side door can be locked without
a key, you should always carry a spare
master key in case you accidentally lock
your keys inside the vehicle.
NOTICE
When using a key containing a trans-
ponder chip, observe the following
precautions:
When starting the engine, do not
use the key with a key ring resting
on the key grip and do not press
the key ring against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts.
When starting the engine, do not
use the key with other transponder
keys around (including keys of oth-
er vehicles) and do not press other
key plates against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts. If
this happens, remove the key once
and then insert it again after taking
off other transponder keys (includ-
ing keys of other vehicles) from the
ring or while gripping or covering
them with your hand to start the
engine.

Engine immobiliser system
The engine immobiliser system is a
theft prevention system. When you in-
sert the key in the ignition switch, the
transponder chip in the key’s head
transmits an electronic code to the ve-
hicle. The engine will start, only when
the electronic code in the chip corre-
sponds to the registered ID code for
the vehicle.The system is automatically set when the
key is removed from the ignition switch.
The indicator light will start flashing every
1 second to show the system is set.
If either of the following indicator condi-
tions occurs, contact your Toyota dealer.
The indicator light stays on except
when the theft deterrent system is set-
ting or activating. (See “Theft deterrent
system”.)
The indicator light does not start flash-
ing when the key is removed from the
ignition switch.
The indicator light flashes unsteady.Inserting the registered key in the ignition
switch automatically cancels the system,
which enables the engine to start. The
indicator light will go off.
For your Toyota dealer to make you a
new key with built−in transponder chip,
your dealer will need your key number
and master key. However, there is a limit
to the number of additional keys your
Toyota dealer can make for you.
If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the sys-
tem or start the engine.

SETTING THE SYSTEM
1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK”
position and remove it.
The indicator light will start flashing every
1 second when the key is removed from
the ignition switch. (See “Engine
immobiliser system” for details.)
2. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle.
3. Close the front, sliding and back doors
and hood. Then lock all the doors with
the key or wireless remote control
transmitter.
The indicator light will come on when the
front, sliding and back doors and hood are
closed and locked.As the doors are locked, the system will
give you a preparation time of 30 seconds
before the setting, during which the front,
sliding or back doors and hood may be
opened.
Be careful not to unlock any door with the
key or wireless remote control transmitter
during setting. This will cancel the system.
4. After making sure the indicator light
starts flashing, you may leave the ve-
hicle.
The system will automatically be set after
the preparation time passes. The indicator
light will flash to show the system is set.
If any of the front, sliding or back doors
or hood is open at that time, the setting
is interrupted until it is closed and locked.
Never leave anyone in the vehicle when
you set the system, because unlocking
from the inside will activate the system.WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET
Activating the system
The system will give the alarm under the
following conditions:
If any of the front, sliding or back
doors is unlocked or if the hood is
forcibly opened without the key or wire-
less remote control transmitter
If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected
The indicator light will come on when the
system is activating.
If any of the doors is unlocked without the
key or wireless remote control transmitter
and the key is not in the ignition switch,
all the doors will be automatically locked
again.
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop and the indicator light will starts
flashing again.
Reactivating the alarm
Once set, the system cannot be cancelled
without the key or wireless remote control
transmitter. If the front, sliding and back
doors and hood are closed after the alarm
