Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master keys—These keys work in ev- ery lock. Your Scion dealer will need
one of them to make a new key with
a built–in transponder chip.
2. Sub key—This key will not work in the glove box.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed in the head of
the master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the system
or start the engine. To protect items locked in the glove box
when using valet parking, leave the sub
key with the attendant.
Since the side doors can be locked with-
out a key, you should always carry a
spare master key in case you accidentally
lock your keys inside the vehicle.
For information on use of the wireless
remote control key, see “Wireless remote
control” on page 11.
When bringing a wireless remote control
key onto an aircraft, make sure you do
not press any buttons on the wireless re-
mote control key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying a wireless re-
mote control key in your bag etc., ensure
that the buttons are not likely to be
pressed accidentally. Pressing a button
may cause the wireless remote control
key to emit radio waves that could inter-
fere with the operation of the aircraft.
12T002
NOTICE
When using a key containing a trans-
ponder chip, observe the following
precautions:
When starting the engine, do not
use the key with a key ring resting
on the key grip and do not press
the key ring against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts.

12T003
When starting the engine, do not
use the key with other transponder
keys around (including keys of oth-
er vehicles) and do not press other
key plates against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts. If
this happens, remove the key once
and then insert it again after remov-
ing other transponder keys (includ-
ing keys of other vehicles) from the
ring or while gripping or covering
them with your hand to start the
engine.
12T004
Do not bend the key grip.
Do not cover the key grip with any
material that cuts off electromagnet-
ic waves.
Do not knock the key hard against
other objects.
Do not leave the key exposed to
high temperatures for a long period,
such as on the dashboard and hood
under direct sunlight.
Do not put the key in water or
wash it in an ultrasonic washer.
Do not use the key with electromag-
netic materials.

KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you
need additional keys, duplicates can be
made by a Scion dealer using the key
number.
We recommend writing down the key num-
ber and storing it in a safe place.
12T006
The engine immobilizer system is a
theft prevention system. When you in-
sert the key in the engine switch, the
transponder chip in the key’s head
transmits an electronic code to the ve-
hicle. The engine will start only when
the electronic code in the chip corre-
sponds to the registered ID code for
the vehicle.
Never leave the keys inside the vehicle
when you leave the vehicle.The system is automatically set when the
key is removed from the engine switch.
The indicator light will start flashing to
show the system is set.
If any of the following indicator conditions
occurs, contact your Scion dealer.
The indicator light stays on.
The indicator light does not start flash-
ing when the key is removed from the
engine switch.
The indicator light flashes inconsistent-
ly.

Inserting the registered key in the engine
switch automatically cancels the system,
which enables the engine to start. The
indicator light will go off.
The system is maintenance−free.
For your Scion dealer to make you a new
key with a built–in transponder chip, your
dealer will need your key number and
master key. However, there is a limit to
the number of additional keys your Scion
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 engine.
NOTICE
Do not modify, remove or disas-
semble the engine immobilizer sys-
tem. If any unauthorized changes or
modifications are made, proper opera-
tion of the system cannot be guaran-
teed.
