Operation of each component
AVENSIS_OM_OM20C20E_(EE)■
Note for the entry function
●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 w hen 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 tr unk or back door is locked/unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, package tray (sedan), lug-
gage cover (wagon), floor or in the glove box when the engine is started
or engine 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 recep-
tion 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 displayed.
In this event, locking all doors will cause the message to extinguish and the
buzzer to stop sounding.
● It may not be possible to lock the doors if the sensor area is covered by
mud, ice, snow etc. In this event, try locking again after cleaning the area, or
lock by touching the sensor area on the underside of the door handle.
● Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock or lock the
door.
● If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the smart entry & start system. (Use the wireless remote control
to unlock the doors.)
● A sudden approach to the effective ra nge or door handle operation may pre-
vent the doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to
the original position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door
handle again.

Steering lock motor overheating prevention
To prevent the steering lock motor from overheating, the motor may be sus-
pended if the engine is turned on and off repeatedly in a short period of time.
In this case, refrain from running the engine. After about 10 seconds, the
steering lock motor will resume functioning.
■ When the engine switch in dicator flashes in amber
The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional, immediately.
■ When the electronic key battery is depleted
→ P. 582
WARNING
■ When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Caution while driving
If engine failure occurs while the vehicle is moving, do not lock or open the
doors until the vehicle reaches a safe and complete stop. Activation of the
steering lock in this circumstance may lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
■ Stopping the engine in an emergency
If you want to stop the engine in an emergency while driving the vehicle,
press and hold the engine switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly
3 times or more in succession. ( →P. 509)
However, do not touch the engine switch while driving except in an emer-
gency. Turning the engine off while driving will not cause loss of steering or
braking control, but the power assist to these systems will be lost. This will
make it more difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop
the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
