Driving And Parking Using Smart Key System - Toyota 2007 Avalon Owner's Manual

Driving and parking using
smart key system
TIPS FOR USING SMART KEY SYSTEM
When using the smart key system, it is
possible to start or stop the engine as
long as the key is on your person.
For this reason, it is possible that a pas-
senger may remove the key from the ve-
hicle without the driver being aware of the
fact. In such a case, it is not possible to
restart the engine after having turned it
off. In addition, it is possible that one may
get out of the vehicle without being aware
that the ignition switch has not been
turned off completely.
When driving or getting in or out of the
vehicle, drivers should make sure that
they are carrying the key.
CAUTION
Do not touch the "ENGINE START
STOP" switch (engine switch) while
driving.
If you have to make an emergency stop,
press and hold the "ENGINE
STOP" switch for more than 3 seconds.

the ignition switch indicator light has gone
off.
