Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master keys— These keys work in every lock.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be
locked without a key, you should al-
ways carry a spare master key in case
you accidentally lock your keys inside
the vehicle.
2. Sub key— This key will not work in the glove box
and trunk.
To protect items locked in the trunk or
glove box when using valet parking,
leave the sub key with the attendant.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 writing down the key num-
ber and storing it in a safe place.Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.
1. Master keys (black)— These keys work in every lock. Your
Toyota dealer will need one of them to
make a new key with a builtin trans-
ponder chip.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be
locked without a key, you should al-
ways carry a spare master key in case
you accidentally lock your keys inside
the vehicle.

2. Sub key (gray)—This key will not work in the glove box
and trunk.
To protect items locked in the trunk or
glove box when using valet parking,
leave the sub key with the attendant.
A transponder chip for engine immobiliser
system has been placed 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.
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 remov-
ing 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.

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.With manual air conditioning controls
With automatic air conditioning controls
The system is automatically set when the
key is removed from the ignition switch.
The indicator light will start flashing to
show the system is set.
If any of the following indicator conditions
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” on page 30 in this section.)
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 builtin 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.

“START”—Starter motor on. The key
will return to the “ON” position when
released.

3.
“ON”—Engine on and all accessories
on.
This is the normal driving position.
“ACC”—Accessories such as the radio
operate, but the engine is off.
If you leave the key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position and open the driver’s
door, a buzzer will remind you to remove
the key.“LOCK”—Engine is off and the steering
wheel is locked. The key can be re-
moved only at this position.
You must push in the key to turn the key
from “ACC” to the “LOCK” position. On
vehicles with an automatic transmission,
the selector lever must be put in the “P”
position before pushing the key.
Vehicles with engine immobiliser system—
Once you remove the key, the engine im-
mobiliser system is automatically set. (See
“Engine immobiliser system” on page 15
in Section 12.)
When starting the engine, the key may
seem stuck at the “LOCK” position. To
free it, first be sure the key is pushed all
the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key gently.
If the automatic unlocking operation linked
with the ignition switch is set, all doors
are automatically unlocked when the igni-
tion switch is turned from the “ON” posi-
tion to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. For
details, see “—Automatic door locking and
unlocking functions” on page 19 in Section
12.

Never remove the key when the ve-
hicle is moving, as this will lock the
steering wheel and result in loss of
steering control.

position if the engine is not running.
The battery will discharge and the
ignition could be damaged.

Before making these checks, make sure
you have followed the correct starting
procedure given in “How to start the
engine” on page 208 in Section 3 and that
you have sufficient fuel. If your vehicle is
equipped with the engine immobiliser
system, also check whether the other
keys will start the engine. If they work,
your key may be broken. Have the key
checked at your Toyota dealer. If none of
your keys work, the system is possibly
broken. Call your Toyota dealer. (See
“Keys (with engine immobiliser system)”
on page 12 in Section 12.)
If the engine is not turning over or is
turning over too slowly—1. Check that the battery terminals are tight and clean.
2. If the battery terminals are O.K., switch on the interior light.
3. If the light is out, dim or goes out when the starter is cranked, the battery
is discharged. You may try jump start-
ing. See “(c) Jump starting” on page
223 for further instructions.
If the light is O.K., but the engine still will
not start, it needs adjustment or repair.
Call a Toyota dealer or qualified repair
shop.NOTICE
Do not pull or pushstart the ve-
hicle. It may damage the vehicle or
cause a collision when the engine
starts. Also the threeway catalytic
converter may overheat and become a
fire hazard.
If the engine turns over at its normal
speed but will not start— 1. The engine may be flooded because of repeated cranking. See “(b) Starting a
flooded engine” on page 222 for further
instructions.
2. If the engine still will not start, it needs adjustment or repair. Call a Toyota
dealer or qualified repair shop. If the engine will not start, your engine
may be flooded because of repeated
cranking.
If this happens, turn the key to “START”
with the accelerator pedal held down.
Keep the key and accelerator pedal in
these positions for 15 seconds and re-
lease them. Then try starting the engine
with your foot off the accelerator pedal.
If the engine does not start after 15 se-
conds of cranking, release the key, wait
a few minutes and try again.
If the engine still will not start, it needs
adjustment or repair. Call a Toyota dealer
or qualified repair shop for assistance.
NOTICE
Do not crank for more than 30 se-
conds at a time. This may overheat
the starter and wiring systems.
