●The key must be carried because the key carries an immobilizer chip that
must communicate with the engine controls at short range.
● The engine can be started when the push button start is pressed from off,
ACC, or ON.
● The push button start system functions (function which can star t the engine
by only carrying the key) can be deactivated to prevent any pos sible
adverse effect on a user wearing a pacemaker or other medical d evice. If
the system is deactivated, you will be unable to start the engi ne by carrying
the key. Consult your Toyota dealer for details. If the push bu tton start sys-
tem functions have been deactivated, you can start the engine b y following
the procedure indicated when the key battery goes dead.
Refer to Engine Start Function When Key Battery is Dead on P. 161.
● After starting a cold engine, the engine speed increases and a whining
sound from the engine compartment can be heard.
This is for improved exhaust gas purification and does not indicate defect of
the parts.
● Engine-starting is controlled by the spark ignition system.
This system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Standard
requirements regulating the impul se electrical field strength of radio noise.
● Under the following conditions, the KEY warning light (red) fla shes after the
push button start is pressed to inform the driver that the push button start
will not switch to ACC even if it is pressed from off.
• The key battery is dead.
• The key is out of operational range.
• The key is placed in areas where it is difficult for the syste m to detect the
signal ( P. 98).
• A key from another manufacturer similar to the key is in the o perational
range.

however, this does not indicate a malfunction.
● Whether the engine is cold or warm, it should be started without the use of
the accelerator.
● If the engine does not start the first time, refer to Starting a Flooded Engine
under Emergency Starting. If the engine still does not start, have your vehi-

3-2. Combination Meter and Display
■Current fuel economy mode
Current fuel economy will be calculated and displayed every 2 sec-
onds.
When you’ve slowed to about 3 mph (5 km/h), - - - mpg (- - - L/ 100
km) will be displayed.
■Average vehicle speed mode
Average vehicle speed will be cal culated and displayed every 10
seconds.
To clear the data being displayed, press the INFO button for mo re
than 1.5 seconds.
After pressing the IN FO button, - - - mph (- - - km/h) will be dis-
played for about 1 minute before the vehicle speed is recalculated
and displayed.
■ Distance-to-empty mode
●Even though the distance-to-empty display may indicate a suffic ient amount
of remaining driving distance before refueling is required, refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or the low fuel warning light illuminates.
● The display may not change unless you add more than approximate ly 2.3
gal. (9 L, 1.9 Imp.gal.) of fuel.
● The distance-to-empty is the approximate remaining distance the vehicle
can be driven until all the graduation marks in the fuel gauge (indicating the
remaining fuel supply) disappear.
● If there is no past fuel economy information such as after firs t purchasing
your vehicle or the information is deleted when the battery cab les are dis-
connected, the actual distance-to empty/range may differ from t he amount
indicated.
■ Average fuel economy mode
If TRIP A is reset using the trip meter when the function which synchronizes
(resets) the fuel economy monitor and the trip meter (TRIP A) i s on, the dis-
played past data is reset.
This mode displays the current fuel economy
by calculating the amount of fuel consumption
and the distance traveled.
This mode displays the average vehicle speed
by calculating the distance and the time trav-
eled since connecting the battery or resetting
the data.
