THE NEW WORLD OF   
ANTI-THEFT TECHNOLOGY
This Toyota 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 Toyota dealer   
or certain bonded/registered independent 
locksmiths can generate replacement keys.

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 Toyota 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 Toyota dealer is not available,   
please refer to www.aloa.org   to find  
a bonded/registered locksmith who   
performs high-security key service.
KEEPING THE KEY SAFE
Replacing an immobilizer key may be   
costly. 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   
identified 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 Toyota dealer or a 
qualified independent automotive locksmith 
make a duplicate key before you need it.

IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE 
INFORMATION
It is especially important to both   
routinely check your vehicle’s engine   
oil level (once a month) and regularly 
replace the engine oil and oil filter   
(see the Maintenance Log section of   
this booklet to determine how often   
you should change your vehicle’s oil   
and filter). Failure to do so can cause   
oil starvation and/or oil gelling, which   
can result in severe damage to your 
vehicle and require costly repairs that   
are not covered by the New Vehicle 
Limited Warranty.
Maintenance Records
Maintaining your vehicle according to   
the recommendations in this booklet is 
required to ensure that your warranty 
coverage remains intact. You should keep 
detailed records of vehicle maintenance, 
including date of service, mileage at time   
of service and a description of service   
and/or parts installation performed. The 
scheduled maintenance log in this booklet   
can help you document this information. If 
you sell your vehicle, be sure to give your 
maintenance records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim   
solely because you do not have records 
to show that you maintained your vehicle. 
However, damage or failure caused by lack   
of proper maintenance is not covered   
under warranty.
 
 
Maintenance Providers 
Maintenance and repair services may be 
performed by you or by any automotive 
service provider you choose. Toyota will   
not deny a warranty claim solely because   
you used a service provider other than a 
Toyota dealership for maintenance and 
repairs. However, damage or failure   
caused by improper maintenance or   
repairs is not covered under warranty.
Dealer-Recommended 
Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more   
frequent maintenance intervals or more 
maintenance services than those listed in   
the scheduled maintenance log. These 
additional services are not required to 
maintain your warranty coverage. Ask 
your dealer to explain any recommended 
maintenance not included in the scheduled 
maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota 
warranty coverages, see the Warranty 
Information portion of this booklet.

MAINTAINING YOUR WARRANTY

Engine Oil and Filter 
Maintenance
Your vehicle is equipped with 0W-20   
synthetic oil, which allows for extended oil 
change intervals and optimum fuel economy. 
It is recommended that Toyota Genuine 
0W-20 Motor Oil be used during scheduled 
oil changes. For normal operating conditions, 
Toyota recommends changing your oil 
and filter every 7,500 miles or six months, 
whichever occurs first.  However, if your 
vehicle is primarily driven under any of the 
following Special Operating Conditions, it 
is recommended that you change your oil 
and filter every 5,000 miles or four months, 
whichever occurs first:
•  Driving on dirt roads or dusty roads
•  Driving while towing, using a car-top carrier, 
or heavy vehicle loading
•  Repeated trips of less than five miles in 
temperatures below 32°F /0°C
•  Extensive idling and/or low speed driving 
for a long distance, such as police, taxi or 
door-to-door delivery use
Additional Maintenance
In addition to scheduled maintenance,   
your Toyota requires ongoing general 
maintenance, such as fluid checks and   
visual inspections. These procedures are 
explained in the “Maintenance and Care” 
section of the Owner’s Manual.  Be sure  
to perform these procedures regularly to 
ensure the most trouble-free operation   
of your vehicle.
SuperChrome and  
Alloy Wheel Care
If you purchased genuine Toyota accessory 
SuperChrome or Aluminum Alloy Wheels, 
follow these cleaning guidelines to maintain 
the appearance of your wheels:
•   
If wheels are hot, wait for them to cool 
before washing.
•   
Use a soft sponge or cotton cloth to   
apply the same mild car-wash soap as   
used for the vehicle body. Quickly rinse   
off with water. Use a soft cloth to apply   
the same car wax as used for the   
vehicle body.
•   
DO NOT USE: Any kind of chemical-  
based cleaners, alcohol, solvents,   
gasoline, steam cleaners, scouring   
pads, wire brushes or coarse abrasives   
to clean your wheels.
