■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any
buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carry-ing an electronic key in your bag etc.,
ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a but-ton may cause the electronic key to emit
radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
■Electronic key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin and a message will be displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display when the hybrid system stops.
●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 battery-saving mode.
( P.225)
●As the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the battery will become depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms
indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery 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 electronic key may be dam-
aged, it is recommended that
replacement is carried out by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 1 m (3
ft.) of the following 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 & start system is not oper-
ated, the key battery may become depleted faster than normal.
■If a message regarding the state of the electronic key or power switch
mode, etc. is shown

■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within
the effective range (detection areas), the system may not operate properly in the following cases:

2264-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
• 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.
●Do 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.
●As 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.
●Even 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.
●The 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.)
●If 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
unlocked by the entry function. (Use
the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)
●Touching the door lock sensor while
wearing gloves may delay or prevent
lock operation. Remove the gloves
and touch the lock sensor again.
●When 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.
●If 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.225)
●If 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.
●The 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.
●A 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.
●If 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.
■When the vehicle is not driven for
extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not
leave the electronic key within 2 m (6
ft.) of the vehicle.
●The smart entry & start system can be
deactivated in advance. (P.633)
●Battery-saving mode can reduce the
power consumption of electronic keys.
