The key consists of an electronic key
and a mechanical key. The mechanical
key is for emergency use. If the elec-
tronic key does not operate, you can
open the driver ’s door using the me-
chanical key.1. Electronic keys—These keys can lock or unlock all the doors and can open
the trunk by using the wireless remote
control function or entry function of the
smart key system.
2. Mechanical keys—These keys can lock or unlock the driver’s door and the
glove box. Spare keys should not be left in the
cabin. In the event that a spare key is
left in the cabin, the smart key system
will remain actuated even after the
doors have been locked. Under these
circumstances, the trunk can be opened
even after the driver has exited and
locked the vehicle, increasing the dan-
ger of theft. (Refer to “—Opening trunk
lid with smart key system” on page 47
in this Section.)
To protect items locked in the trunk or the
glove box when using valet parking, leave
the electronic key with the attendant. Keep
the mechanical key with you. For details
about locking the trunk opener switch, see
“—Luggage security system” on page 49
in this Section.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed in the electronic
keys. These chips are needed to enable
the system to function correctly, so be
careful not to lose these keys.
CAUTION
People with implanted pacemakers
or cardiac defibrillators s
hould
maintain a reasonable distance be-
tween themselves and the smart
key system antennas, because the
radio waves may affect the opera-
tion of such devices. For the anten-
na locations see “ANTENNA LOCA-
TION” on page 34 in this Section.
Users of any electrical medical de-
vice other than implanted pacemak-
ers and implanted cardiac defibrilla-
tors should consult the manufactur-
er of the device for information
about its operation under the influ-
ence of radio waves. Radio waves
could have unexpected effects on
the operation of such medical de-
vices.
If necessary, the entry function can
be disabled. See “DISABLING THE
SMART KEY SYSTEM” on page 38
in this Section.

The engine immobilizer system is a
theft prevention system. The transpond-
er chip in the key transmits an elec-
tronic code to the vehicle. The hybrid
system will start only when the elec-
tronic code in the chip corresponds to
the registered ID code for the vehicle.
The engine immobilizer system is automat-
ically set when the “POWER” switch is
turned off.
The indicator light will start flashing to
show that the system is set.
If any of the following indicator conditions
occur, contact your Toyota dealer.
The indicator light remains on.
The indicator light does not start flash-
ing when the “POWER” switch is
turned off.
The indicator light flashes inconsistent-
ly.The engine immobilizer system is automat-
ically canceled when you enter the vehicle
carrying an electronic key and press the
“POWER” switch.
Even if the key battery is discharged, the
hybrid system can be turned on. See
“Smart key system” on page 32 in this
Section.
When the system is canceled, the indica-
tor 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 electronic key. However, there is a
limit to the number of additional keys your
Toyota dealer can make for you.
NOTICE
Do not modify, remove or disas-
semble the engine immobilizer sys-
tem. If any unauthorized changes or
modifications are made, proper opera-
tion of the system cannot be guaran-
teed.

(J) The “POWER” switch flashes greenonce every second.
This indicates that the steering lock is
stuck. The message “S/T IS NOT
UNLOCKED” will also appear on the
multi −information display.
To free it, rotate the steering wheel slight-
ly while pressing the “POWER” switch.
(K) The “POWER” switch flashes amber once every 2 seconds.
When the message “CHECK S/T LOCK”
appears on the multi −information display—
This indicates a problem with the steering
lock function. Have your vehicle checked
at your Toyota dealer.
When no message appears on the multi −
information display—
This indicates a problem with the push
button start function. Have your vehicle
checked at your Toyota dealer. THEFT PREVENTION FUNCTION
When the hybrid system is turned off,
the engine immobilizer system is auto-
matically set. (See “Engine immobilizer
system” on page 24 in Section 1
−2.)
When the driver ’s door is opened after
turning off the hybrid system, the steer-
ing wheel will lock.
When the 12 volt battery is discharged,
the steering lock function may not op-
erate properly.
Always slow down in gusty crosswinds.
This will allow you much better control.
Drive slowly onto curbs and, if pos-
sible, at a right angle. Avoid driving
onto high, sharp− edged objects and
other road hazards. Failure to do so
can lead to severe tire damage such
as a tire burst.
Drive slowly when passing over bumps
or travelling on a bumpy road. Other-
wise, the impact could cause severe
damage to the tires and/or wheels.
When parking on a hill, turn the front
wheels until they touch the curb so
that the vehicle will not roll. Apply the
parking brake, and place the transmis-
sion in “P”. If necessary, block the
wheels.

Before making these checks, make sure
you have sufficient fuel and that you have
followed the correct starting procedure giv-
en in “How to start the hybrid system” on
page 301 in Section 3. If your vehicle is
equipped with the engine immobilizer sys-
tem, also check whether the other keys
will start the hybrid system. If they work,
your key may be broken. Have the key
checked at your Toyota dealer. If none of
your keys work, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the immobilizer system. Call your
Toyota dealer. (See “Keys” on page 22 in
Section 1−2.) If the instrument cluster displays with
normal brightness levels with the
“POWER” switch set at ON...
You may try emergency start. See “(b)
Emergency start” for further instructions.
If the instrument cluster dims or the
instrument cluster display turns off
with the “POWER” switch set at ON...
1. Check that the 12 volt battery terminals are tight and clean.
2. If the 12 volt battery terminals are O.K., the 12 volt battery is discharged.
You may try jump starting. See “(c)
Jump starting” that follows for further
instructions.
NOTICE
Hybrid vehicles cannot be push
started.
When the hybrid system cannot be
started, the following procedure can be
used if the hybrid system and “POWER”
switch function normally.
1. Put the transmission in “P”.
2. Set the mode to ACC by pushing the “POWER” switch once.
3. Push and hold the “POWER” switch for about 15 seconds while depressing the
brake pedal firmly.
Even if the hybrid system can be started
using the above procedure, the system
may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle
checked by your Toyota dealer.
If the hybrid system cannot be started
using the above procedure, immediately
contact your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Do not place any objects close to the
“POWER” switch. If the object pushes
on the switch, the hybrid system may
be started unexpectedly.
If your vehicle will not start—
