Cars without a system of increased security access to the trunk
The key fits all locks.
Always keep a spare key with you in case your main set of keys accidentally become locked inside the vehicle when the doors and trunk lid are slammed.
Keep the key serial number tag in a safe place (for example, in a wallet), it is not allowed to keep the tag in the car.
If you suddenly lose your keys or need a duplicate, they can be made at the Toyota car service center using the number on the tag.

Car keys (equipped with an immobilizer)
The car comes with two keys.
Master Key (black color) - fits all locks. This key is required by the Toyota service center to make a new key with a built-in radio beacon chip (transponder).
Spare key (gray color) – fits all locks except the trunk lid lock.
The heads of the main and spare keys have a built-in radio beacon chip (transponder), from which the lock is triggered. Therefore, do not lose the keys under any circumstances. If you make your own duplicate, you will not be able to trigger the security system or start the engine.
