Keys (without engine immobilizer system)
Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds of keys.
1. Master keys—
These keys work in every lock.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key, you should al­ways carry a spare master key in case you accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
2. Sub key—
This key will not work in the glove box and trunk.
To protect items locked in the trunk or glove box when using valet parking, leave the sub key with the attendant.
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.
Keys (with engine immobilizer system)
Your vehicle is supplied with 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 builtin trans­ponder chip.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key, you should al­ways carry a spare master key in case you accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
12
2004 CAMRY from Jul. ’03 Prod. (OM33616U)
2. Sub key (gray)—
This key will not work in the glove box and trunk.
To protect items locked in the trunk or glove box when using valet parking, leave the sub key with the attendant.
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.
’04Camry_U (L/O 0307)
NOTICE
When using a key containing a trans­ponder chip, observe the following precautions:
z 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.
z 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.
13
2004 CAMRY from Jul. ’03 Prod. (OM33616U)
z Do not bend the key grip.
’04Camry_U (L/O 0307)
z Do not cover the key grip with any
material that cuts off electromagnet­ic waves.
z Do not knock the key hard against
other objects.
z Do not leave the key exposed to
high temperatures for a long period, such as on the dashboard and hood under the direct sunlight.
z Do not put the key in water or
wash it in an ultrasonic washer.
z Do not use the key with electromag-
netic 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 writing down the key num­ber and storing it in a safe place.
14
2004 CAMRY from Jul. ’03 Prod. (OM33616U)
Engine immobilizer system
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.
’04Camry_U (L/O 0307)
With manual air conditioning controls
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.
D The indicator light stays on except
when the theft deterrent system is set­ting or activating. (See “Theft deterrent system” on page 30 in this Section.)
D The indicator light does not start flash-
ing when the key is removed from the ignition switch.
D 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 builtin 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.
With automatic air conditioning controls

18
2004 CAMRY from Jul. ’03 Prod. (OM33616U)
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.

To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the following.
D Before you close the power win-
dows, always make sure there is nobody around the power windows. You must also make sure the heads, hands and other parts of the bodies of all occupants are kept completely inside the vehicle. If someone’s neck, head or hands get caught in a closing window, it could result in a serious injury. When anyone closes the power win­dows, make sure he or she oper­ates the windows safely.
D When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power window switches without supervi­sion. Use the window lock switch to prevent them from making unex­pected use of the switches.
