FUNCTION
Start Function
The start function has different power source modes to suit the brake pedal condition and shift lever position*1*2 or clutch pedal condition*3.
When a driver who is carrying a key enters the vehicle while the power source mode is off, and presses the engine switch (push start switch) without depressing the brake pedal*1*2 or the clutch pedal*3, the power source mode turns to the ACC status, causing the key operation/warning light in the combination meter assembly to flash. With each pressing of the engine switch (push start switch), the power source mode switches as follows: OFF → ACC → IG ON → OFF.
When a driver who is carrying a key enters the vehicle while the power source mode is off, and depresses the brake pedal*1*2 or the clutch pedal*3 while the shift lever is in the "P"*1 or "N"*2*4 position, the key operation/warning light in the combination meter assembly will illuminate. Pressing the engine switch (push start switch) with the key operation/warning light in the combination meter assembly illuminated will cause the engine to start.
When starting the engine with the vehicle stopped, pressing the engine switch (push start switch) while the shift lever is in P will cause the power source mode to turn to off. Pressing the engine switch (push start switch) when the shift lever is in any position other than P will cause the mode to turn to on (ACC).*1
When starting the engine with the vehicle stopped, pressing the engine switch (push start switch) will cause the power source mode to turn to off.*2*3
*1: Models with CVT
*2: Models with multi-mode manual transaxle
*3: Models with manual transaxle
*4: Models with CVT (While steering lock is unlocked)
Transition of the power source mode when the key battery is low or the key is not operating normally due to an electromagnetic interference:
The driver uses the mechanical key (which is built into the key) to unlock the door, and enters the vehicle while carrying the key.
The driver places the TOYOTA mark of the key in contact with the front of the engine switch (push start switch) while depressing the brake pedal*1*2 or clutch pedal*3 to turn to on (IG or ACC*4).
With each pressing of the engine switch (push start switch), the power source mode switches as follows: on (ACC)*4 → on (IG) → off.
Starting the engine when the key battery is low or the key is not operating normally due to an electromagnetic interference:
The driver uses the mechanical key (which is built into the key) to unlock the door, and enters the vehicle while carrying the key.

*4: Only when the entry and start system has been canceled using a customizable function.
Note
Normally, the operation of the engine switch (push start switch) is disabled while the vehicle is being driven. However, if the engine must be stopped in an emergency while the vehicle is in motion, the driver can press the engine switch (push start switch) for approximately 3 seconds or more, or press it briefly for 3 times or more in succession to stop the engine.
If no signals are transmitted to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) due to a malfunction in the stop light switch assembly, the engine will not start even if the driver presses the engine switch (push start switch) while depressing the brake pedal.*1 In this case, the driver can start the engine by the following operations. Press the engine switch (push start switch) to turn the power source mode from off to on (ACC), and press the engine switch (push start switch) again and hold it for 15 seconds or more.
The above 2 operations must be applied only in emergency situations. Under normal conditions, the engine must not be stopped by pressing the engine switch (push start switch) during driving or started without depressing the clutch pedal*2 or brake pedal when the shift lever is in any position other than P*3 or N*4.

Key Code Registration Function
The table below shows the 4 special ID code registration function modes through which up to 4 different codes can be registered. The codes are electronically registered (written and stored) in the EEPROM. For details of the recognition code registration procedure, refer to the Service Bulletin.
| Mode | Function |
|---|---|
| Registration | Registers newly received codes. This mode is used whenever the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is replaced. |
| Addition | Adds a newly received code while preserving previously registered codes. This mode is used when adding a new transmitter. If the number of codes exceeds 4, the oldest registered code is cleared first. |
| Confirmation | Confirms how many codes are currently registered. When adding a new code, this mode is used to check how many codes already exist. |
| Deletion | Clears all registered codes except one. This mode is used when keys are lost except one. The keys that are deleted cannot be re-registered. |
CONSTRUCTION
Electrical Key Transmitter
The electrical key transmitter consists of a mechanical key, a transmitter for the wireless door lock control and a transceiver for the entry and start system.
The transceiver for the entry and start system receives the signals from the oscillators and returns the ID code to the door control receiver.
The transmitter for the wireless door lock control has a lock button and unlock button.
When the key battery is low, the radio wave response received from the engine switch (push start switch) is returned to the engine switch (push start switch) by the electrical key transmitter.
This mechanical key works for the driver's door, but cannot start the engine.

Door Control Receiver
The door control receiver and electrical key transmitter can operate on 2 different Radio Frequency (RF) channels. Therefore, stable signal transmission and reception will be delivered even if wave interference occurs.
When an electrical key transmitter is brought within an exterior actuation area, key verification begins. If key verification fails due to wave interference, the channel will be switched and key verification will be performed again. The multi channel system begins verification using the channel on which the last verification was successfully performed. When verification fails, the system switches to the other channel.
| Step | System Operation |
|---|---|
| *a | Exterior actuation areas are created using Low Frequency (LF) waves (emitted from the vehicle at intervals of 0.25 seconds) to receive a response from the electrical key transmitter. |
| *b | When the electrical key transmitter is brought into an exterior actuation area, it receives LF waves from the vehicle. Using RF waves, the electrical key transmitter responds to the vehicle. |
| *c | Upon receiving the response from the electrical key transmitter, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) activates the electrical key antennas (outside) one by one. Using LF waves, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) determines which exterior actuation area the electrical key transmitter is in. |
| *d | The electrical key transmitter receives the LF waves from the vehicle and responds using RF waves. (The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) recognizes which exterior actuation area the electrical key transmitter is in.) |
| *e | The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends registered key ID information to the electrical key transmitter using LF waves. (Up to 4 key IDs can be registered.) |
| *f | The electrical key transmitter sends the key ID information using RF waves on both channels. When the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) receives it, verification completes. |
| *g | Wave interference (Channel switching) |
