multaneously. At this time, one beep will

once.
Check to see that all the side doors and

If any of the side doors or back door is
not securely closed, locking cannot be
performed by the “LOCK” switch and a

onds. However, if the key is in the igni-
tion, a beep will not sound.

This double switch operation to unlock all
the side doors and back door can be
changed to a single switch operation. For
details, contact your Toyota dealer.
When all the side doors and back door
are unlocked simultaneously with a wire-
less remote control transmitter, the center
interior light, personal lights and ignition
switch light come on for about 15 seconds
before fading out, even if the door is not
opened. (For details, see “Interior lights”
on page 122, “Personal lights” on page
123 and “Ignition switch light” on page
124 in Section 1−5.)
You have 30 seconds to open a door after
using the wireless remote unlock feature.
If a door is not opened by then, all the
side doors and back door will be automati-
cally locked again. At this time, one beep
will be heard, and the turn signal lights
flash once.
The timing for the automatic door lock
function can be changed. For details, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
If the “LOCK” or “UNLOCK” switch is kept
pressed in, the locking or unlocking opera-
tion is not repeated. Release the switch
and then push again. The wireless door locking or unlocking
function can be erased. For details, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
You can switch the beep on and off. (The
beep is on initially and after battery re-
placement.)

2. Within 5 seconds, insert the ignition key again and turn it to the “ON” posi-
tion.

ing the transmitter switch after you finish
this procedure. If the beep does not oper-
ate as expected, repeat this procedure

3. Hold the hood open by inserting the
support rod into the slot.

you have not forgotten any tools, rags,
etc. and return the support rod to its

front edge to lock it.

the slot, make sure the rod supports
the hood securely from falling down

designed to sound an alarm if any of
the side doors, back door or hood is
forcibly unlocked or the battery termi-
nal is disconnected and then recon-
nected when the system is set.
The alarm blows the horn intermittently
and flashes the headlights, tail lights and
turn signal lights, and turns on the interior
light.SETTING THE SYSTEM 1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position and remove it.
The indicator light will start flashing when
the key is removed from the ignition
switch. (See “Engine immobilizer system”
on page 17 in this Section for details.)

3. Close and lock all the side doors, back door and hood.
