Spark ignition system of your

Toyot a

The spark ignition system in your Toyota meets all re­quirements of the Canadian Interference- Causing Equip­ment Standard.

Installation of a mobile

two- way radio system

As the installation of a mobile two- way radio system in
your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as
multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel
injection system, cruise control system, anti- lock brake
system, SRS airbag system and seat belt pretensioner
system, be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for
precautionary measures or special instructions regarding
installation.

Scrapping of your Toyota

The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in
your Toyota contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle
is scrapped with the airbags and pretensioners left as
they are, it may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat
belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified
service shop or by your Toyota dealer before you dis­pose of your vehicle.

iii 2000 4Runner (OM35762U)

On- pavement and off- road

driving tips

This vehicle belongs to the utility vehicle class. Utility
vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than
other types of vehicles. This vehicle will handle and
maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger car be­cause it is designed for off- road use also. In addition,
this vehicle has a higher ground clearance and center of
gravity than that of an ordinary passenger car. This
vehicle design feature causes this type of vehicle to be
more likely to rollover. Failure to operate this vehicle
correctly may result in loss of control, accidents or
vehicle rollover causing death or serious injury. Be sure
to read “Off- road vehicle precautions” in Section 2 and
“Off- road driving precautions” in Section 3.

Keys
(without engine immobiliser
system)

Keys
(with engine immobiliser
system)

Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.

1. Master key—This key works in every
lock.

2. Sub key—This key will not work in the
glove box.

To protect things locked in the glove box
when you have your vehicle parked, leave
the sub key 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.

10

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.

We recommend you to write down the key
number and keep it in safe place.

2000 4Runner (OM35762U)

Your vehicle is supplied with the two
kinds of keys.

1. Master key (black)—This key works in
every lock. Your Toyota dealer will
need it to make you a new key with
built- in transponder chip.

2. Sub key (gray)—This key does not
work in the glove box.

A transponder chip for engine immobiliser
system has been filled in the head of the
master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the system
or start the engine.

To protect things locked in the glove box
when you have your vehicle parked, leave
the sub key with the attendant.

Since the side 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.

For information on use of the wireless
remote control key, see “Side doors” in
this section.

NOTICE

When using a key containing a trans­ponder chip, observe the following
precautions:

!

When starting the engine, do not
use the key with a key ring resting
on the key grip and do not press
the key ring against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts.

2000 4Runner (OM35762U)

!

When starting the engine, do not
use the key with other transponder
keys around (including keys of oth­er vehicles) and do not press other
key plates against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts. If
this happens, remove the key once
and then insert it again after taking
off other transponder keys (includ­ing keys of other vehicles) from the
ring or while gripping or covering
them with your hand to start the
engine.

11

!

Do not bend the key grip.

!

Do not cover the key grip with any
material that cuts off electromagnet­ic waves.

!

Do not knock the key hard against
other objects.

!

Do not leave the key exposed to
high temperatures for a long period,
such as on the dashboard and hood
under the direct sunlight.

!

Do not put the key in water or
wash it in an ultrasonic washer.

!

Do not use the key with electromag­netic materials.

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.

We recommend you to write down the key
number and keep it in safe place.

12

2000 4Runner (OM35762U)

Engine immobiliser system

The engine immobiliser system is a
theft prevention system. When you in­sert the key in the ignition switch, the
transponder chip in the key’s head
transmits an electronic code to the ve­hicle. The engine will start, only when
the electronic code in the chip corre­sponds to the registered ID code for
the vehicle.

The system is automatically set when the
key is removed from the ignition switch.
The indicator light will start flashing every
2 seconds to show the sys tem is set.

If either of the following indicator condi­tions occurs, contact your Toyota dealer.

! The indicator light stays on except

when the theft deterrent system is set­ting or activating. (See “Theft deterrent
system”.)

! The indicator light does not start flash-

ing when the key is removed from the
ignition switch.

! The indicator light flashes unsteady.

Inserting the registered key in the ignition
switch automatically cancels the system,
which enables the engine to start. The
indicator light will go off.

For your Toyota dealer to make you a
new key with built- in transponder chip,
your dealer will need your key number
and master key. However, there is a limit
to the number of additional keys your
Toyota dealer can make for you.

If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the sys­tem or start the engine.

NOTICE

Do not modify, remove or disas­semble the engine immobiliser sys­tem. If any unauthorized changes or
modifications are made, the proper
operation of the system cannot be
guaranteed.
