●To reduce key battery depletion when
the electronic key is to not be used for long periods of time, set the electronic
key to the batter y-saving mode.
( →P.225)
●As the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the ba ttery will become depleted even if the electronic key is
not used. The following symptoms

when necessary.
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper -
ate.
• The detection area becomes smaller. • The LED indicator on the key surface
does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself
( →P.543). However, as there is a dan-
ger that the electro nic key may be dam-
aged, it is recomm ended that replace-
ment is carried ou t by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not
leave the electronic key within 1 m (3
ft.) of the followi ng electrical appli- ances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers • Cellular phones, cordless phones and
battery chargers
• Table lamps • Induction cookers
●If the electronic key is near the vehicle for longer than necessary, even if the
smart entry & star t system is not oper-
ated, the key battery may become depleted faster than normal.
