To prevent key damage

■
● Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks, or bend them.
● Do not expose the keys to high temperatures for long periods of time.
Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer, etc.
●
● Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys
close to such materials.
Do not disassemble the keys.
●
● Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic key.
● Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: Do not place the keys near
objects that produce magnetic fields, such as TVs, audio systems and
induction cookers, or medical electrical equipment, such as low-frequency
therapy equipment.
■ Carrying the electronic key on your person (vehicles with a smart entry
& start system)
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appli-
ances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances
within 10 cm (3.9 in.) of the electronic key may interfere with the key, caus-
ing the key to not function properly.
■ In case of a smart entry & start system malfunction or other key-related
problems (vehicles with a smart entry & start system)
Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle to
your Toyota dealer.

When a key is lost

If the key remains lost, the risk of vehicle theft increases significantly. Visit
your Toyota dealer immediately with all remaining keys that were provided
with your vehicle.
