8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When the engine does not start, the
following steps can be used as an
interim measure to start the engine
if the engine switch is functioning
normally:
1 Set the parking brake. (P.293)
Parking brake indicator will come on.
2 Shift the shift lever to P.
3 Turn the engine switch to ACC.
4 Press and hold the engine
switch for about 15 seconds
while depressing the brake
pedal firmly.
Even if the engine can be started
using the above steps, the system
may be malfunctioning. Have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.

(vehicles with smart entry &
start system)
If you lose your keys
New genuine keys can be
made by your Toyota dealer
using a master key (vehicles
without smart entry & start
system) or the other key (vehi-
cles with smart entry & start
system) and the key number
stamped on your key number
plate. Keep the plate in a safe
place such as your wallet, not
in the vehicle.
■ When an electronic key is lost
(vehicles with smart entry & start
system)
If the electronic key remains lost, the
risk of vehicle theft increases signifi-
cantly. Visit your Toyota dealer imme-
diately with all remaining electronic
keys that were provided with your
vehicle.
