SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Your Venza has both high-voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12-vo l t system.
Both DC and AC high voltage are very dangerous and can cause personal injury, severe burns,

To avoid personal injury, please follow all caution labels attached to high-voltage parts. Do not
touch or attempt to remove or replace any high-voltage (orange-colored) wiring and connectors.

If an accident occurs, do not touch any high-voltage wiring, connectors or parts such as the
inverter unit or hybrid vehicle battery as sembly.
Do not touch the potassium hydroxide electrolyte that might spill or leak from the hybrid vehicle
battery as the result of an accident. If potassium hydroxide electrolyte gets on your skin or in
your eyes, neutralize it immediately with a saturated boric acid solution (ratio: 80 grams boric
acid to two liters water). Seek immediate medical attention.
If a vehicle re occurs, extinguish it with a Class D powder-type re extinguisher.

INTRODUCTION
THE IMMOBILIZER KEY

THE NEW WORLD OF
ANTI-THEFT TECHNOLOGY
This Toyo t a vehicle may be equipped
with an electronic “immobilizer” anti-theft
system. When the key is inserted into the
ignition switch, it transmits an electronic
code to an immobilizer computer. The
engine will only start if the code in the
key matches the code in the immobilizer.
If the code does not match, the immobilizer
disables the ignition and fuel systems.
While an exact physical copy of the key
will open the door and allow retrieval of
items locked in the vehicle, it won’t start
the vehicle unless the key has the same
code as the immobilizer.


SECURITY
For security purposes, access to key
codes and service procedures for
electronically registering replacement
keys is restricted. Only a Toyo t a dealer
or certain bonded/registered independent
locksmiths can generate replacement keys.

8Introduction
INTRODUCTION


REPLACING THE KEY
Upon purchase, each vehicle should have
two master keys and an aluminum tag
with a key code imprinted on it.
To generate a fully functional replacement
key (one that will both open the doors and
start the engine), one of the master keys
is required. To make a key that will open
the door for retrieval of items locked
inside the vehicle, the aluminum key-code
tag can be used. If a master key or the
aluminum key-code tag is not available,
a Toyo t a dealer or certain registered
locksmiths can obtain the key code from
a restricted-access database. These
businesses can also access a service
utility to reprogram the immobilizer if
all registered master keys have been
lost. If a Toyo t a dealer is not available,
please refer to www.aloa.org to nd
a bonded/registered locksmith who
performs high-security key service.


KEEPING THE KEY SAFE
Replacing an immobilizer key may be
cos tly. It is advisable to keep a spare
master key and the aluminum key-code
tag in a safe place. If you record the
key code in more than one place, do not
record it in a way that can be easily
identied and associated with the vehicle.
It is wise to keep a copy of the key code
outside of the vehicle.
If the vehicle was delivered with less than
two keys and the aluminum key-code tag,
consider having the Toyo t a dealer or a
qualied independent automotive locksmith
make a duplicate key before you need it.

extensive diagnosis.
• The parts needed for the warranty
repairs are not readily available and
your vehicle is inoperative or unsafe
to drive. The
policy does not apply when warranty
repairs can be completed in one day but
the vehicle must be kept overnight due to
dealer or owner scheduling conicts.

Limited Warranty. The policy applies to all
2021 model-year Toyo t a s sold and
