Keys
’04 4Runner_U (L/O 0409)
To protect items locked in the glove box
when using valet parking, leave the sub
key with the attendant.
Since the side doors can be locked without a key, you should always carry a
spare key in case you accidentally lock
your keys inside the vehicle.
Your vehicle is supplied with the two
kinds of keys.
1. Master keys (black)—These keys work
in every lock. Your Toyota dealer will
need one of them to make a new key
with a built- in transponder chip.
2. Sub key (gray)—This key does not
work in the glove box.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed 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.
12
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.
2004 4RUNNER from Sep. ’04 Prod. (OM35847U)
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 removing other transponder keys (including keys of other vehicles) from the
ring or while gripping or covering
them with your hand to start the
engine.
’04 4Runner_U (L/O 0409)
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 direct sunlight.
Do not put the key in water or
wash it in an ultrasonic washer.
Do not use the key with electromagnetic materials.

’04 4Runner_U (L/O 0409)
Engine immobilizer system
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 writing down the key number and storing it in a safe place.
14
The engine immobilizer 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 to
show the system is set.
If any 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” on page 33 in this Section.)
The indicator light does not start flash-
ing when the key is removed from the
ignition switch.
The indicator light flashes inconsistent-
ly.
2004 4RUNNER from Sep. ’04 Prod. (OM35847U)
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 immobilizer system. If any unauthorized changes or
modifications are made, proper operation of the system cannot be guaranteed.

REAR DOOR CHILD- PROTECTORS
Move the lock lever to the “LOCK”
position as shown on the label.
When the child-protector is locked, you
cannot open the rear door by the inside
door handle. We recommend using this
feature whenever small children are in the
vehicle.
’04 4Runner_U (L/O 0409)
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors
are closed and locked, especially
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 vehicle during an accident. It also helps
prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.
—Automatic door locking and
unlocking functions
You can set the following automatic
door locking and unlocking functions.
(a) Locking linked with the shift posi-
tion
All the side doors and back door are
locked automatically when the automatic
transmission selector lever is moved out
of the “P” position with the engine running
and all the side doors and back door are
closed. This function is the default setting
for new vehicles.
(b) Unlocking linked with the shift posi-
tion
All the side doors and back door are unlocked automatically when the automatic
transmission selector lever is moved to
the “P” position with the ignition switch in
the “ON” position.
(c) Locking linked with the vehicle
speed
All the side doors and back door are
locked automatically when the vehicle
speed reaches 20 km/h (12 mph) or higher. However, if any of the side doors and
back door is unlocked during driving, this
auto locking function will not operate until
the unlocked door is opened once.
18
2004 4RUNNER from Sep. ’04 Prod. (OM35847U)
(d) Unlocking linked with opening the
driver’s door
All the side doors and back door are unlocked automatically when the driver’s

the ignition switch is turned from “ON” to
the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.
SETTING THE FUNCTIONS
1. Close all the side doors and back door.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON”
position.
