Keys (with engine immobilizer

system)

Two types of keys are supplied with your vehicle.

NOTICE

If you use keys with a transponder chip, follow

these instructions:

1. Master keys ÿ These keys work in all locks. Your

authorized Toyota dealer or workshop, or other

properly qualified and equipped professional, will

need one of these keys to make a new key with an

embedded transponder chip.

u When starting the engine, do not leave the ring

resting on the key head and do not press it

against the key head. Otherwise, the engine may

not start or may stall soon after starting.

2. Auxiliary key ÿ This key cannot be used to unlock

the trunk and glove box

Both the master and auxiliary keys have a transponder

chip for the engine immobilizer system located in the

key head. These chips ensure the correct operation of

the system, so be careful not to lose these keys. If you

make your own duplicate key, it will not be possible to

disarm the system or start the engine.

To protect items locked in the trunk and glove box

when parking with an attendant, leave the auxiliary key

with the attendant.

As all side doors can be locked without a key, you

should always carry a spare master key with you in case

you accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
