Before driving
VERSO-S_EE
Using the mechanical key (vehicles with a smart entry & start system)
To take out the mechanical key,
push the release button and take
the key out.
After using the mechanical key,
store it in the electronic key. Carry
the mechanical key together with
the electronic key. If the electronic
key battery is depleted or the
entry function does not operate
properly, you will need the
mechanical key. (P. 478)
Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. In the
event that a key (without a smart entry & start system) or mechanical key
(with a smart entry & start system) is lost, a new key can be made by any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional using the key number plate. (P. 477)
When riding in an aircraft
When bringing a key with wireless remote control function onto an aircraft,
make sure you do not press any buttons on the key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying the key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons
are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.

The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the elec-
tronic key battery and the vehicle battery from being discharged while the
