Your vehicle is supplied with two

kinds of key.

1. Master key—This key works in every

lock.

2. Subkey—This key will not work in the

glovebox.

To protect things locked in the glovebox

when you have your vehicle parked, leave

the subkey with the attendant.

Since the doors can be locked without a

key, you should always carry a spare

master key in case you accidentally lock

your keys inside the vehicle.

KEY NUMBER PLATE

Your key number is shown on the

plate. Keep the plate in a safe place

such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.

If you should lose your keys or if you need

additional keys, duplicates can be made

by a Toyota dealer using the key number.

You should also put a copy of the key

number with your important papers.

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH

KEY

Insert the key into the keyhole and turn

it.

To lock: Turn the key forward.

To unlock: Turn the key backward.

Vehicles with power door lock sys-

tem—All the side doors and back door

lock and unlock simultaneously with either

door. In the driver’s door lock, turning the

key once will unlock the driver’s door and

twice in succession will unlock all side

doors simultaneously.

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH IN-

SIDE LOCK BUTTON

Move the lock button.

To lock: Push the button downward.

To unlock: Pull the button upward.

Closing the door with the lock button

pushed in will also lock the door. Be care-

ful not to lock your keys in the vehicle.

Vehicles with power door lock system—

The front doors cannot be locked if you

leave the key in the ignition switch.

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH

POWER DOOR LOCK SWITCH

Push the switch.

To lock: Push the switch on the front side.

To unlock: Push the switch on the rear

side

All the doors lock or unlock simultaneous-

ly.

REAR DOOR CHILD-PROTECTORS

Move the lock lever to the “LOCK”

position as shown on the label.

This feature allows you to lock a rear door

so it can be opened from the outside only,

not from inside. We recommend using this

feature whenever small children are in the

vehicle.

WWW.MANUALS.WS

CAUTION

Before driving, be sure that the

doors are closed and locked, espe-

cially when small children are in the

vehicle. Along with the proper use of

seat belts, locking the doors helps

prevent the driver and passengers

from being thrown out from the ve-

hicle during an accident. It also

helps prevent the doors from being

opened unintentionally. The windows can be operated with the

switch on each door.

The power windows work when the igni-

tion switch is in the “ON” position. Howev-

er, if both doors are closed, they work for

60 seconds even after the ignition switch

is turned off. They stop working when ei-

ther front side door is opened.

OPERATING THE DRIVER’S WINDOW

Use the switch on the driver’s door.

Normal operation: The window moves

as long as you hold the switch.

To open: Lightly push down the switch.

To close: Pull up the switch.

Automatic operation (to open only):

Push the switch completely down and

then release it. The window will fully open.

To stop the window partway, lightly pull the

switch up and then release it.
