WARNING

During customization

Because certain customization procedures require the engine to remain running, perform these adjustments only while the vehicle is parked in a location with adequate ventilation. Never leave the engine operating in a closed or poorly ventilated space such as a garage, where exhaust gases containing carbon monoxide (CO) can accumulate and enter the passenger compartment. Carbon monoxide exposure can cause serious health effects or death.

NOTICE

During customization

When customization requires an extended period with electrical equipment operating, keep the engine running as specified to help prevent unnecessary battery discharge.

Customizable features

Changing one customizable function may also alter another related setting at the same time. The exact relationship between linked settings depends on vehicle equipment and configuration. Contact your Toyota dealer if you need additional information about a particular customization.

 Vehicle customization

  • When the smart key system has been switched off, the entry unlock function cannot be customized because the related smart-entry operation is unavailable.

  • If the doors remain closed after they have been unlocked and the timer-controlled automatic locking function subsequently relocks them, the confirmation signals will follow the current operation buzzer volume and operational signal (emergency flasher) settings.

  • Certain settings can be changed directly with a vehicle switch as well as through the multimedia system. When a setting is altered using a switch, the new value may not immediately appear in the multimedia system. The displayed setting is updated after the engine switch is turned off and then returned to ON.
