Keys
Your vehicle is supplied with 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.
’01 L/C U (L/O 0008)
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.
10
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.
Do not bend the key grip.
’01 L/C U (L/O 0008)
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.
11
Engine immobiliser system
’01 L/C U (L/O 0008)
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
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 to
show the system 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.

’01 L/C U (L/O 0008)
To operate the moon roof, use the
switches beside the personal light.
The moon roof works when the ignition
switch is in the ”ON” position. However,
if both front doors are closed, it works for
45 seconds even after the ignition switch
is turned off. It stops working when any
of the side doors or back door is opened.
Sun shade operation—
The sun shade can be opened or closed
by hand.
Sliding operation—
To open: Push the switch on the rear
side.
The roof will open and stop partway 35
mm (1.4 in.) from the fully opened position. When you push the switch again, the
moon roof will open fully. To stop the roof
partway, push the same switch or tilt
switch while the roof is moving.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully
will cause wind throbs, we recommend
you to drive with the moon roof partway
35 mm (1.4 in.) from the fully opened
position.
The sun shade will be opened together
with the roof.
To close: Push the switch on the front
side.

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, al-
ways keep the heads, hands and
other parts of the bodies of all
occupants away from the roof
opening. Otherwise, they could
be seriously injured if the vehicle
stops suddenly or if the vehicle
is involved in an accident.
Always make sure nobody places
his/her head, hands and other
parts of the body in the roof
opening before you close the
roof. If someone’s neck, head or
hands gets caught in the closing
roof, it could result in a serious
injury. When anyone closes the
roof, first make sure it is safe to
do so.
Never leave small children alone
in the vehicle, especially with the
ignition key still inserted. They
could use the moon roof
switches and get trapped in the
roof opening. Unattended children can be involved in serious
accidents.
