38 1-1. Key information
AVENSIS_EE (OM20B44E)
When required to leave a key to the vehicle with a parking attendant
(for right-hand drive vehicles with smart entry & start system)
Lock the glove box. (P. 482)
Remove the mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant with
the electronic key only.
Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. In the
event that a key is lost, a new key can be made by any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional, using
the key number plate. (P. 699)
When riding in an aircraft
When bringing a key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any but-
tons on the key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying a key in
your bag etc., ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed acciden-
tally. Pressing a button may cause the key to emit radio waves that could
interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
NOTICE
To prevent key damage
Do not subject the keys to strong shocks, expose them to high tempera-
tures by placing them in direct sunlight, or get them wet.
Do not expose the keys to electromagnetic materials or attach any mate-
rial that blocks electromagnetic waves to the key surface.
Do not disassemble the key.

44 1-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
AVENSIS_EE (OM20B44E)
Operation signals

have been locked/unlocked. (Locked: Once; Unlocked: Twice)
When the door cannot be locked using the topside sensor area
Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses weak radio waves. In the following situ-
ations, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may
be affected, preventing the smart entry & start system and wireless remote
control from operating properly. (Ways of coping: P. 702)
When the electronic key battery is depleted
Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electri-
cal noise
When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication devices
When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
If the door will not lock even when the
topside sensor area is touched, try touch-
ing both the topside and underside sen-
sor areas at the same time.

AVENSIS_EE (OM20B44E)
Note for the smart entry & start system
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 rear bumper center when the trunk or back door is locked/
unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, package tray (sedan),
luggage cover (wagon), floor or in the glove box when the engine is
started or “ENGINE START STOP” 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
reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin
and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the
electronic key inside the vehicle.
As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may
be locked or unlocked by anyone.
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 key is kept near the vehicle while it is being washed, water applied
to a door handle may cause the door to lock and unlock repeatedly. In
this event, place the key in a location 2 m (6 ft.) or more from the vehicle,
taking care not to lose the key.
If the key is inside the vehicle while it is being washed, water applied to a
door handle may cause a buzzer to sound and a message to be dis-
played. In this event, locking all doors will cause the message to extin-
guish and the buzzer to stop sounding.

CAUTION
Caution regarding interference with electronic devices
People with implanted pacemakers or cardiac defibrillators should main-
tain a reasonable distance between themselves and the smart entry &
start system antennas. (P. 41)
The radio waves may affect the operation of such devices. If necessary,
the entry function can be disabled. Ask any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional for details,
such as the frequency of radio waves and timing of emitting the radio
waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if you should disable the entry
function.
Users of any electrical medical device other than implanted pacemakers
and implanted cardiac defibrillators should consult the manufacturer of the
device for information about its operation under the influence of radio
waves.
Radio waves could have unexpected effects on the operation of such
medical devices.
Ask any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional for details for disabling the entry function.

306 2-4. Using other driving systems
AVENSIS_EE (OM20B44E)
The Toyota parking assist-sensor can be operated when
Vehicles with smart entry & start system
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode, and the
shift lever is in the “R” position.
Vehicles without smart entry & start system
The engine switch is in the “ON” position, and the shift lever is in the “R”
position.
Sensor detection information
Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect
the ability of the sensor to correctly detect obstacles. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed below.
• There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor. (Wiping the sensor will resolve
this problem.)
• The sensor is frozen. (Thawing the sensor will resolve this problem.)
• The sensor is covered in any way.
• In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
• When driving on bumpy, sloped or gravel roads, or over grass.
• If there is something producing ultrasonic waves nearby, such as
another vehicle’s horn, motorcycle engine noise, air braking sound
from heavy-duty vehicles, or another vehicle using the park assist sys-
tem.
• In heavy rain, or if water is splashed on the sensors.
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
• If a commercial fender pole or radio antenna is installed.
• If moving towards a high curb or a curb corner.
• If towing eyelet is installed on your vehicle.
• The bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
• A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension etc.) is
installed.
In addition to the examples above, there are instances in which, because of
their shapes, signs and other objects may be judged by the sensor to be
closer than they are.
