QBattery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be acti-
vated in order to prevent the electronic key battery and the 12-volt battery from being discharged while the vehicle is not
in operation for a long time.
OIn the following situations, the smart
entry & start system may take some time to unlock the doors.• The electronic key has been left in an
area of approximately 3.5 m (11.5 ft.) of the outside of the vehicle for 2 min-utes or longer.
• The smart entry & start system has not been used for 5 days or longer.
OIf the smart entry & start system has not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at any
doors except the driver’s door. In this case, take hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote
control or the mechanical key, to unlock the doors.
QTurning an electronic key to bat-
tery-saving mode
OWhen battery-saving mode is set, bat-
tery depletion is minimized by stop- ping the electronic key from receiving radio waves.
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.
OElectronic keys that will not be used for long periods of time can be set to
the battery-saving mode in advance.
QWhen electronic key function stops
If the position of the electronic key has
not changed for a certain amount of time such as when the electronic key is left somewhere, the function of the elec-
tronic key stops to reduce depletion of the battery.In this case, function can automatically
be restored by moving the position of the key such as by lifting it up.
QConditions 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 immobilizer system from operating
properly.

If the doors cannot be locked/unlocked
using the smart entry & start system,
lock/unlock the doors by performing any
of the following:
OBring the electronic key close to either
front door handle and operate the
entry function.
OOperate the wireless remote control. If
the doors cannot be locked/unlocked
using the above methods, use the mechanical key. (P.202)
If the hybrid system cannot be started
using the smart entry & start system,
refer to P.545.
QNote for the entry function
OEven when the electronic key is within
the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly
in the following cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the
window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place when
the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instru-
ment panel, luggage cover or floor, or
in the door pockets or glove box when
the hybrid system is started or power
switch modes are changed.
ODo not leave the electronic key on top
of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle.
Depending on the radio wave recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by
the antenna outside the cabin and the
door will become lockable from the
outside, possibly trapping the elec-
tronic key inside the vehicle.
OAs long as the electronic key is within
the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. How-
ever, only the doors detecting the
electronic key can be used to lock or
unlock the vehicle.
OEven if the electronic key is not inside
the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the hybrid system if the electronic key
is near the window.
OThe doors may unlock if a large
amount of water splashes on the door
handle, such as in the rain or in a car
wash when the electronic key is within
the effective range. (The doors will
automatically be locked after approxi-
mately 30 seconds if the doors are not
opened and closed.)
OIf the wireless remote control is used
to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a pos-
sibility that the door may not be

2244-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
unlocked by the entry function. (Use
the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)
OTouching the door lock sensor while
wearing gloves may delay or prevent
lock operation. Remove the gloves
and touch the lock sensor again.
OWhen the lock operation is performed
using the lock sensor, recognition sig-
nals will be shown up to two consecu-
tive times. After this, no recognition
signals will be given.
OIf the door handle becomes wet while
the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and
unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow
the following correction procedures to
wash the vehicle:
• Place the electronic key in a location 2
m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi-
cle. (Take care to ensure that the key
is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-sav-
ing mode to disable the smart entry &
start system. (P.222)
OIf the electronic key is inside the vehi-
cle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be
shown on the multi-information dis-
play and a buzzer will sound outside
the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock
all the doors.
OThe lock sensor may not work prop-
erly if it comes into contact with ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor
and attempt to operate it again, or use
the lock sensor on the lower part of
the door handle.
OA sudden approach to the effective
range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this
case, return the door handle to the
original position and check that the
doors unlock before pulling the door
handle again.
OIf there is another electronic key in the
detection area, it may take slightly lon-
ger to unlock the doors after the door
handle is gripped.
QWhen the vehicle is not driven for
extended periods
OTo prevent theft of the vehicle, do not
leave the electronic key within 2 m (6
ft.) of the vehicle.
OThe smart entry & start system can be
deactivated in advance. (P.573)
OBattery-saving mode can reduce the
power consumption of electronic keys.
(P.222)
QTo operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key
when operating the system. For vehicles
with entry function, do not get the elec-
tronic key too close to the vehicle when
operating the system from the outside of
the vehicle.
Depending on the position and holding
condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the
system may not operate properly. (The
alarm may go off accidentally, or the
door lock prevention may not operate.)
QIf the smart entry & start system
does not operate properly
OLocking and unlocking the doors: Use
the mechanical key. (P.545)
OStarting the hybrid system: P.273
QCustomization
Settings (e.g. smart entry & start sys-
tem) can be changed.
(Customizable features: P.573)
If the smart entry & start system has
been deactivated in a customized set-
ting, refer to the explanations for the fol-
lowing operations.

WARNING
QCaution regarding interference with electronic devices
OPeople 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.221) The radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices. If neces- sary, the entry function can be dis-abled. Ask any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for details, such as the frequency of
radio waves and timing of the emit- ted radio waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if you should disable
the entry function.
OUser 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 the 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.
Ask any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for details for dis-
abling the entry function.

QSeat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary. If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdo- men, or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of an accident.Adjustments should not be made
while driving as the seat may unex- pectedly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Rear seats
Reclining adjustments and
folding the seatbacks can be
done with lever operation.
