WARNING

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

Before driving
- Make sure that the trunk lid is fully closed. If the trunk lid is not fully closed, it may open unexpectedly while driving and hit nearby objects, or luggage in the trunk may be thrown out, causing an accident.
- Do not allow children to play in the trunk. If a child is accidentally locked in the trunk, they could suffer from heat exhaustion, suffocation, or other injuries.
- Do not allow a child to open or close the trunk lid. Doing so may cause the trunk lid to open unexpectedly, or cause the child’s hands, head, or neck to be caught by the closing trunk lid.
Important points while driving Never let anyone sit in the trunk. In the event of sudden braking or a collision, they are susceptible to death or serious injury.

WARNING

Using the trunk
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in serious injury.
1. Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the trunk lid before opening it. Failure to do so may cause the trunk lid to suddenly shut again after it is opened.
2. When opening or closing the trunk lid, thoroughly check to make sure the surrounding area is safe.
3. If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that the trunk is about to open or close.
4. Use caution when opening or closing the trunk lid in windy weather as it may move abruptly in strong wind.
5. On an incline it is more difficult to open or close the trunk lid than on a level surface, so beware of the trunk lid unexpectedly opening or closing by itself. Make sure that the trunk lid is fully open and secure before using the trunk.
6. When opening the trunk lid, take care so that it does not hit anyone in the face or any other part of the body.
When closing the trunk lid, take extra care to prevent your fingers, etc. from being caught.
When closing the trunk lid, make sure to press it lightly on its outer surface.
Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Toyota parts to the trunk lid. Such additional weight on the trunk lid may cause the lid to suddenly shut again after it is opened.

- In the following situations, the smart key system may take some time to unlock the doors.
  - The electronic key has been left in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of the outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.
  - The smart key system has not been used for 5 days or longer.
- If the smart key system has not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at any doors except the driver’s door. In this case, take hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote control or the mechanical key, to unlock the doors.
Electronic Key Battery-Saving Function

- Press twice while pressing and holding . Confirm that the electronic key indicator flashes 4 times.
- While the battery-saving mode is set, the smart key system cannot be used. To cancel the function, press any of the electronic key buttons.
Conditions affecting operation
- The smart key system, wireless remote control, and engine immobilizer system use weak radio waves. In the following situations, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be affected, preventing the smart key system, wireless remote control, and engine immobilizer system from operating properly. (Ways of coping: P. 559)
  - When the electronic key battery is depleted
  - Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large display, airport, or another facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical noise
  - When the electronic key is in contact with or is covered by the following metallic objects
    - Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
    - Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
    - Metallic wallets or bags
    - Coins
    - Hand warmers made of metal
    - Media such as CDs and DVDs
When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that emit radio waves
- Portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone, or other wireless communication devices
- Another vehicle’s electronic key, another electronic key of your vehicle, or a wireless key that emits radio waves
- Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
- Digital audio players
- Portable game systems
If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the rear window
When the electronic key is placed near a battery charger or electronic devices
When the vehicle is parked in a pay parking spot where radio waves are emitted.

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:
- 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 near the ground or in a high place, or too close to the rear bumper center when the trunk is opened.
- The electronic key is on the instrument panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the door pockets or glove box when the engine is started or engine 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 reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle.
As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting the electronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.
Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start the engine if the electronic key is near the window.
The doors may unlock or lock 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 approximately 60 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 possibility 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 signals will be shown up to two consecutive times. After this, no recognition signals will be given.*
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this case, follow the following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:
- Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
- Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key system.
If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet during a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information display and a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors.
The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again.
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 longer to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped.
Fingernails may scrape against the door during the operation of the door handle. Be careful not to injure fingernails or damage the surface of the door.

This setting can be customized at your Toyota dealer.

When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
- To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2 m) of the vehicle.
- The smart key system can be deactivated in advance.
