Operation of each component
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
Q If you lose your keys
New genuine keys can be made by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer using a master key (vehicles with-
out smart entry & start system) or the other key of the same type (vehicles
with smart entry & start system), and the key number stamped on your key
number plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the
vehicle.
Q When riding in an aircraft (type B and C)
When bringing a key with wireless remote control function onto an aircraft,
make sure you do not press any buttons on the key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying the key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons are
not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the key to
emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
Q Key battery depletion
Vehicles without smart entry & start system
If the wireless remote control function does not operate, the battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery when necessary. ( P. 516)
Vehicles with smart entry & start system
 P. 168
Q If a message regarding the state of the electronic key or engine switch
mode, etc. is shown
To prevent trapping the electronic key in side the vehicle, leaving the vehicle
without turning off the engine switch or other passengers from unintentionally
taking the key out of the vehicle, etc., a message that prompts the user to
confirm the state of the electronic key or engine switch mode may be shown
on the multi-information display. In those cases, follow the instructions on the
display immediately.
Q If “Key battery low” is shown on the multi-information display
The electronic key has a low battery. Replace the electronic key battery.
Q Replacing the electronic key battery
 P. 516
Q Confirmation of the registered key number
The number of keys already registered to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for details.

1643-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
Q Effective range (areas within which the electronic key is detected)
When starting the engine or changing engine switch modes
The system can be operated when the electronic key is inside the vehicle.
(The electronic key is not detected when it is on the floor or on the instru-
ment panel.)
Q Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be acti vated in order to prevent the battery
from being discharged while the vehicle is not in operation for a long time.
Q Electronic Key Battery-Saving Function
When battery-saving mode is set, battery depletion is minimized by stopping
the electronic key from receiving radio waves.
When locking or unlocking the doors
The system can be operated when the
electronic key is within about 0.7 m (2.3
ft.) of either of the lock/unlock button on
the outside door handle. (Only the
doors detecting the key can be oper-
ated.)
Press twice while pressing and
holding . Confirm that the electronic
key indicator flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set, the
smart entry & start system cannot be
used. To cancel the function, press any of
the electronic key buttons.

1663-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
Q Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses weak radio waves. In the following situa-
tions, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control
and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping: P. 600)
O When the electronic key battery is depleted
O Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
O When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication device
O When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
O When multiple electronic keys are in the vicinity
O When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
O When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that
emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or pers onal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
O If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the
rear window
O When the electronic key is placed near a battery charger or electronic devices

depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indi-
cate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary. ( P. 516)

•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers
Q If “Key left inside vehicle” is shown on the multi-information display

into the lock position, then closing the door by pulling on the outside door
handle with the electronic key still inside the vehicle.
