Emergency key
E00307200340
The emergency key is built into the keyless opera-
tion key. If the keyless operation function cannot
be used, for example because the keyless operation
key battery has worn out or the vehicle battery is
flat, you can lock and unlock the driver's door
(RHD vehicles) or all the doors (LHD vehicles)
and start the engine with the emergency key. To
use the emergency key (1), unlock the lock knob
(2) and remove it from the keyless operation key (3).
NOTE
l Only use the emergency key for emergen-
cies. If the keyless operation key battery
wears out, replace it as quickly as possible so
that you can use the keyless operation key.
l After using the emergency key, always re-
turn it into the keyless operation key.

Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)
E00307300396
The electronic immobilizer is designed to signifi-
cantly reduce the possibility of vehicle theft. The
purpose of the system is to immobilize the vehicle
if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt
can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions)
using a keyless operation system "registered" to
the immobilizer system.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle
have been programmed to the vehicle's electronics.
Refer to "Keyless operation system: Ignition
switch" on pages 1-11 and 1-16.
