Keys - Toyota SEQUOIA 2003 Manual

Keys

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 it to make you a new key with
a built−in transponder chip.
2. Sub key (gray)—This key also works in
every lock.
A transponder chip for engine immobiliser
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.

Since the side doors can be locked with-
out a key, you should always carry a
spare master key in case you accidentally
lock your keys inside the vehicle.
NOTICE
When using a key containing a trans-
ponder 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.
