Keys - Toyota Land Cruiser 2016 Owner's Manual

Keys

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 built−in transponder chip.
Since the side doors and back door
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 (gray)—This key will not work
in the glove box.
To protect things locked in the glove
box when you have
parked, leave the sub key with the at-
tendant.
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.

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.
