INTRODUCTION
The REMOTE ENGINE STARTER allows you to start your engine from outside the
vehicle. It utilizes your vehicle’s keyless entry remote, so there is no need to carry
around an extra remote. The REMOTE ENGINE STARTER is operated the same
way for vehicles equipped with or without the Smart Entry / Push Start s\
ystem; simply
push the remote’s LOCK button in a quick, two-step sequence. In addition, the RE-
MOTE ENGINE STARTER can activate the heater or air conditioner according to your
preset temperature controls, providing you with a comfortable cabin upon\
entry. As an
added convenience, the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER can also activate the defroster
(when preset) to clear up the windshield during cold weather.
To ensure your safety, and the safety of anyone near the vehicle, the REMOTE
ENGINE STARTER is designed to shut the engine off when it detects any attempt
to enter or move the vehicle after a remote engine start. Please consult\
your Toyota
dealer for more details.
NOTE: To utilize the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, your vehicle must have an au-
tomatic transmission; it cannot be used for manual transmission models. \
The trans-
mission range for remote start may be shorter than the remote’s basic keyless entry
operation. Range can also be affected by the surrounding environment. Laws in some
communities require that the vehicle be within view of anyone using the \
REMOTE
ENGINE STARTER. In some states, use of the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER may
violate state or local laws. Before using the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, check your
state and local laws.
For any questions or concerns about the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, please call
Toyota Customer Experience at (800) 331-4331.
