INTRODUCTION

The REMOTE ENGINE STARTER allows you to start your engine from outside the vehicle. It utilizes your vehicles keyless entry remote, so there is no need to carry around an extra remote. The REMOTE ENGINE STARTER is operated the same way for vehicles equipped with or without the Smart Entry / Push Start system; simply push the remotes LOCK button in a quick, two-step sequence. In addition, the RE- MOTE ENGINE STARTER can activate the heater or air conditioner according to your preset temperature controls, providing you with a comfortable cabin upon entry. As an added convenience, the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER can also activate the defroster (when preset) to clear up the windshield during cold weather.

To ensure your safety, and the safety of anyone near the vehicle, the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER is designed to shut the engine off when it detects any attempt to enter or move the vehicle after a remote engine start. Please consult your Toyota dealer for more details.

NOTE: To utilize the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, your vehicle must have an au- tomatic transmission; it cannot be used for manual transmission models. The trans- mission range for remote start may be shorter than the remotes basic keyless entry operation. Range can also be affected by the surrounding environment. Laws in some communities require that the vehicle be within view of anyone using the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER. In some states, use of the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER may violate state or local laws. Before using the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, check your state and local laws.

For any questions or concerns about the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, please call Toyota Customer Experience at (800) 331-4331.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Caution

Do not start the engine in an enclosed area (such as a garage or indoor parking lot) where too much exhaust may accumulate and create a hazardous environment with potential for CO poisoning.

Caution Do not start the engine if a child or pet are present in or near the vehicle. Interior power components such as windows and seats can accidentally be switched on and lead to injury.

Caution Do not check the engine while it is still warm after being remotely started. Allow at least five minutes for the engine to cool to avoid being burned.

Caution Do not start the engine near dry foliage, paper, or other flammable substances. The exhaust tube and emissions can create a fire hazard at high temperatures.

Caution Do not use the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER from a distance where the vehicle cannot be seen. Children or small animals should not be near the vehicle.

Caution Do not start the engine with the body cover still on the vehicle. The exhaust tube and emissions are capable of starting a fire at high temperatures.
