If You Cannot Shift Transmission Selector Lever; If You Lose Your Keys - Toyota HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2007 Manual

If you cannot shift
transmission selector lever
If you cannot shift the selector lever
out of the "P" position to other posi-
tions even though the brake pedal is
depressed, use the shift lock override
button as follows:
1. Turn the ignition key to the "LOCK"
position. Make sure the
brake is applied.
2. Pry up the cover with a flathead
screwdriver or equivalent.
3. Start the hybrid system. For your
safety, keep the brake pedal de-
pressed.

4. With pushing down the shift lock
override button, shift out of the "P"
position while depressing the brake
pedal.
As the hybrid system starts only with the
transmission in the "P" position, put the
selector lever in "P" whenever starting the
parking
system.
Be sure to have the system checked by
your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

If you lose your keys

You can purchase a new key at your
Toyota dealer if you can give them the
key number. If your vehicle is equipped
with the engine immobilizer system, the
dealer will also need your master key.
Vehicles with engine immobilizer system—
Even if you lose only one key, contact
your Toyota dealer to make a new key. If
you lose all your master keys, you cannot
make new keys; the whole engine immobi-
lizer system must be replaced.
See the suggestion given in "Keys" on
page 22 in Section 1−2.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and
you cannot get a duplicate, many Toyota
dealers can still open the door for you,
using their special tools. If you must
break a window to get in, we suggest
breaking the smallest side window be-
cause it is the least expensive to replace.
Be extremely cautious to avoid cuts from
the glass.
