Inserting the registered key in the ignition
switch automatically cancels the system,
which enables the hybrid system 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.
If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the sys-
tem or start the hybrid system.
