lock cylinder, turn it over and re-  
attempt to insert it.  
After using the mechanical key, store it in the electronic key. Carry the  
mechanical key together with the electronic key. If the electronic key bat-  
tery is depleted or the entry function does not operate properly, you will  
need the mechanical key. (P. 422)

If you lose your mechanical keys  
New genuine mechanical keys can be made by your Toyota dealer using the  
other mechanical key and the key number stamped on your key number  
plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.  
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  
carrying an electronic key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons are not  
likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the electronic  
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.

3-1. Key information  
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 when the hybrid  
system stops.  
As the electronic key always receives radio waves, the battery will become  
depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indi-  
cate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery  
when necessary. (P. 373)  
• The smart key system or the wireless remote control does not operate.  
• The detection area becomes smaller.  
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.  
To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 3 ft. (1  
m) of the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:  
• TVs  
• Personal computers  
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers  
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones  
Table lamps  
• Induction cookers  
Replacing the battery  
P. 424  
Confirmation of the registered key number  
The number of keys already registered to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask  
your Toyota dealer for details.  
If a wrong key is used  
The key cylinder rotates freely to isolate inside mechanism.

ances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances  
within 3.9 in. (10 cm) of the electronic key may interfere with the key, caus-  
ing the key to not function properly.  
In case of a smart key system malfunction or other key-related prob-  
lems  
Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle to  
your Toyota dealer.  
When an electronic key is lost  
If the electronic key remains lost, the risk of vehicle theft increases signifi-  
cantly. Visit your Toyota dealer immediately with all remaining electronic

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 near-by 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 colli-  
sion, they are susceptible to death or serious injury.  
120  
3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk  
WARNING  
Using the trunk  
Observe the following precautions.  
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in seri-  
ous injury.  
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.  
When opening or closing the trunk lid, thoroughly check to make sure the  
surrounding area is safe.  
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that  
the trunk is about to open or close.  
Use caution when opening or closing the trunk lid in windy weather as it  
may move abruptly in strong wind.  
The trunk lid may suddenly shut if it is  
not opened fully. It is more difficult to  
open or close the trunk lid on an incline  
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.  
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. If the  
trunk handle is used to fully close the  
trunk lid, it may result in hands or arms  
being caught.  
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.

127  
3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk  
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 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 electronic  
key inside the vehicle.  
3
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 elec-  
tronic 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 hybrid system 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.)
