■Caution regarding interference
with electro nic devices
●People with implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchroni -
zation therapy-pacemakers or
implantable cardioverter defi - brillators should maintain a reason -
able distance between themselves
and the smart entry & start system
antennas. ( →P.223) The radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices. If neces -
sary, the entry func tion can be dis- abled. Ask any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer for details, such as t he frequency of
radio waves and ti ming of the emit-
ted radio waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if y ou should disable

●User of any electrical medical
device other than implantable car -
diac pacemakers, cardiac resyn - chronization therapy-pacemakers
or implantable cardioverter defi -
brillators should consult the manu - facturer of th e device for
information about its operation
under the influence of radio waves. Radio waves could have unex -
pected effects on the operation of
such medical devices.

• When a detectabl e object is not
directly in front of your vehicle
• When a detectable object is near a
wall, fence, guardrail, manhole cover, vehicle, steel plate on the road, etc.
