If the system is functioning correctly, the BSM outside rear view mirror indi-
cators will turn off after a few seconds.
If the BSM outside rear view mirror indicators do not illuminate or do not

If a safety system warning light does not come on

Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning lights not
come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are
not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in death
or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immedi-
ately if this occurs.

Liquid crystal display

WARNING

■

The information display at low temperatures

Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the display monitor may
respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed. 
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift  again,  causing  rapid  and  excessive  engine  braking  and  possibly  an
accident resulting in death or injury.

■

Cautions during setting up the display

As the engine needs to be running during setting up the display, ensure that
the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area
such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO)
may  collect  and  enter  the  vehicle.  This  may  lead  to  death  or  a  serious
health hazard.

NOTICE

■

During setting up the display

To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while setting
up the display features.

■

If you lose your keys

New genuine keys can be made by your Toyota dealer using a master key
(vehicles without a smart key system) or the other key (vehicles with a smart
key system) and the key number stamped on your key number plate. Keep

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.



●

If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the engine
stops. (



P. 436, 481)

●

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. (



• 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

■

To prevent key damage

●

Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.

●

Do not expose the keys to high temperatures for long periods of time.

●

Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer etc.

●

Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys
close to such materials.

●

Do not disassemble the keys.

●

Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic key.

●

Do not place the keys near objects that produce magnetic fields, such as
TVs,  audio  systems  and  induction  cookers,  or  medical  electrical  equip-

Carry  the  electronic  key  3.9 in.  (10 cm)  or  more  away  from  electric  appli-
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-

Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle to
your Toyota dealer.

■

When a vehicle key is lost (vehicles with a smart key system)

If the key remains lost, the risk of vehicle theft increases significantly. Visit

the sliding door is about to open or close.

●

Do not leave the sliding door at half-opened position because the sliding
door is not latched at this position. The sliding door may move unexpect-
edly on an incline.

●

When the vehicle is stopped on a slope,

Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

●

When  using  the  door  handle  to  open  or  close  the  power  sliding  door,
remove your hand from the door handle immediately after starting power
sliding door operation. If you leave your hand on the door handle during

amount of force.

●

Check the safety of the surrounding area to make sure there are no obsta-
cles or anything that could cause any of your belongings to get caught. 

●

In the event that the sliding door is left

WARNING

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

■

Before driving

●

Make sure that the back door is fully closed. If the back door is not fully
closed, it may open unexpectedly while driving and hit near-by objects or
luggage in the luggage compartment may be thrown out, causing an acci-
dent.

●

Do not allow children to play in the luggage compartment. 
If  a  child  is  accidentally  locked  in  the  luggage  compartment,  they  could
have heat exhaustion or other injuries.

●

Do not allow a child to open or close the back door. 
Doing so may cause the back door to operate unexpectedly, or cause the
child’s hands, head, or neck to be caught by the closing back door.

■

Important points while driving

Never  let  anyone  sit  in  the  luggage  compartment.  In  the  event  of  sudden
braking,  sudden  swerving  or  a  collision,  they  are  susceptible  to  death  or
serious injury.

■

Operating the back door

Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in death
or serious injury.

●

Remove  any  heavy  loads,  such  as  snow  and  ice,  from  the  back  door
before opening it. Failure to do so may cause the back door to suddenly
shut again after it is opened.

●

When  opening  or  closing  the  back  door,  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 back door is about to open or close.

●

Use caution when opening or closing the back door in windy weather as it
may move abruptly in strong wind.

●

The back door may suddenly shut if it is
not  opened  fully.  It  is  more  difficult  to
open  or  close  the  back  door  on  an
incline  than  on  a  level  surface,  so
beware  of  the  back  door  unexpectedly
opening or closing by itself. Make sure
that  the  back  door  is  fully  open  and
secure  before  using  the  luggage  com-
partment.

head or neck to be caught and injured. When installing an accessory part
to the back door, using a genuine Toyota part is recommended.

■

power back door system is canceled.

■

Power back door (vehicles with power back door)

Observe the following precautions when operating the power back door.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

●

Check the safety of the surrounding area to make sure there are no obsta-
cles or anything that could cause any of your belongings to get caught. 

●

If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that
the back door is about to open or close.

●

If  the  operating  conditions  of  the  power  back  door  are  no  longer  met,  a
buzzer may sound and the back door may stop opening or closing. The
back door then has to be operated manually. Take extra care when on an
incline, as the back door may open or close abruptly.

●

On an incline, the back door may suddenly shut after it opens. Make sure
the back door is fully open and secure.

●

care  to  prevent  your  fingers  etc.  from
being caught.

●

to press it lightly on its outer surface. If
the  back  door  handle  is  used  to  fully
close  the  back  door,  it  may  result  in
hands or arms being caught. 

●

In  the  event  that  the  back  door  is  left
slightly  open,  the  back  door  closer  will
automatically close it to the fully closed
position.  It  takes  several  seconds
before  the  back  door  closer  begins  to
operate. Be careful not to catch fingers
or anything else in the back door, as this
may cause bone fractures or other seri-
ous injuries.
