WARNING
■ General precautions while driving
Driving under the  influence:  Never drive  your vehicle when  unde r  the  influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-
cle.  Alcohol  and  certain  drugs  delay  reaction  time,  impair  judg ment  and
reduce  coordination,  which  could  lead  to  an  accident  that  could   result  in
death or serious injury.
Defensive  driving: Always  drive  defensively. Anticipate  mistake s  that  other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid acciden ts.
Driver  distraction:  Always  give  your  full  attention  to  driving.  Anything  that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a  cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serio us injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regar ding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow  children to
have or use the key.
Children  may  be  able  to  start  the  vehicle  or  shift  the  vehicle  into  neutral.
There is also a  danger that  children  may  injure  themselves  by p laying with
the  windows,  the  moon  roof,  or  other  features  of  the  vehicle.  In  addition,
heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal
to children.

Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (det ection 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 unl ocked.
• The  electronic  key  is  near  the  ground  or  in  a  high  place,  or  t oo  close  to
the rear bumper center when the trunk is opened.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, rear package tr ay or floor,
or in the door pockets or 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 w ave recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the  cabin and the
doors 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, th e doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting  the elec-
tronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.
● 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  splashe s  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  lo cked  after
approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
● If  the  wireless  remote  control  is  used  to  lock  the  doors  when  t he  electronic
key  is  near  the  vehicle,  there  is  a  possibility  that  the  door  m ay  not  be
unlocked  by  the  entry  function.  (Use  the  wireless  remote  contro l  to  unlock
the doors.)
● Touching  the  door  lock  or  unlock  sensor  while wearing  gloves  ma y  prevent
lock or unlock operation.
● When the lock operation is performed using the lock sensor, rec ognition sig-
nals  will  be  shown  up  to  two  consecutive  times. After  this,  no  recognition
signals will be given.
● If the  door  handle becomes  wet while the  electronic  key  is with in the  effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this ca se, follow the
following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:
• Place  the  electronic  key  in  a  location  6  ft.  (2  m)  or  more  awa y  from  the
vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
• Set  the  electronic  key  to  battery-saving  mode  to  disable  the  s mart  key
system. ( P. 124)

Operation of each component
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U●
If  the  electronic  key  is  inside  the  vehicle  and  a  door  handle  b ecomes  wet
during  a  car  wash,  a  message  may  be  shown  on  the  multi-informat ion  dis-
play and a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off t he alarm, lock
all the doors.
● The  lock  sensor  may  not  work  properly  if  it  comes  into  contact  with  ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again.
● If  there  is  another  electronic  key  in  the  detection  area,  it  ma y  take  slightly
longer to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped.
● Fingernails  may  scrape  against  the  door  during  operation  of  the   door  han-
dle. Be careful not to injure fingernails or damage the surface  of the door.
● A sudden handle operation or a handle operation immediately aft er entering
the  effective  range  may  prevent  the  doors  from  being  unlocked.  Touch  the
door unlock sensor and check that the doors are unlocked before pulling the
door handle again.
● Unlocking the vehicle may take more time if another electronic  key is within
the effective range.
■ When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic ke y within 6 ft. (2
m) of the vehicle.
● The smart key system can be deactivated in advance. ( P. 564)
■ To operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. Do not get
the electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the  system from the

Maintenance and care
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U
Check the battery as follows.
■Battery exterior
Make  sure  that  the  battery  terminals  are  not  corroded  and  that
there are no loose connections, cracks, or loose clamps.
Terminals
Hold-down clamp
■ Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Therefore, observe the following before recharging:
●If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sur e to disconnect
the ground cable.
● Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connectin g and dis-
connecting the charger cables to the battery.
■ After recharging/reconnecting the battery (vehicles with a smar t key sys-
tem)
● Unlocking the doors using the smart key system may not be possi ble imme-
diately  after  reconnecting  the  battery.  If  this  happens,  use  the  wireless
remote control or the mechanical key to lock/unlock the doors.
● Start the engine with the engine switch  in ACCESSORY mode. The  engine
may  not  start  with  the  engine  switch  turned  off.  However,  the  e ngine  will
operate normally from the second attempt.
● The  engine  switch  mode  is  recorded  by  the  vehicle.  If  the  batte ry  is  recon-
nected, the vehicle will return the engine switch mode to the s tatus it was in
before  the  battery  was  disconnected.  Make  sure  to  turn  off  the  engine
before  disconnect the  battery. Take extra care  when connecting  the  battery
if the engine switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
If  the  system  will  not  start  even  after  multiple  attempts,  contact  your  Toyota
dealer.

When trouble arises
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U
■Starting the engine when t he battery is discharged 
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle  is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic .
■ Charging the battery
The  electricity  stored  in  the  battery  will  discharge  gradually  even  when  the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-
tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long t ime, the battery may
discharge,  and  the  engine  may  be  unable  to  start.  (The  battery  recharges
automatically during driving.)
■ When recharging or replacing the battery
●Vehicles with a smart key system: In some cases, it may not be  possible to
unlock  the  doors  using  the  smart  key  system  when  the  battery  is dis-
charged.  Use  the  wireless  remote  control  or  the  mechanical  key  to  lock  or
unlock the doors.
● The engine may not start on the first attempt after the battery  has recharged
but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a  malfunction.
● Vehicles with a smart key system: The engine switch mode is memorized by
the  vehicle.  When  the  battery  is  reconnected,  the  system  will  r eturn  to  the
mode it was in before the battery was discharged. Before disconnecting the
battery, turn the engine switch off. 
If you are unsure what mode the engine switch was in before the  battery dis-
charged, be especially careful when reconnecting the battery.
