Safety Connect Services Information

●

Phone calls using the vehicle’s Bluetooth

®

technology will not be possible

when Safety Connect is active and in use.

●

Safety Connect is available beginning Fall 2009 on select Toyota models (in
the contiguous United States only). Contact with the Safety Connect
response center is dependent upon the telematics device being in operative
condition, cellular connection availability, and GPS satellite signal reception,
which can limit the ability to reach the response center or receive emer-
gency service support. Enrollment and Telematics Subscription Service
Agreement are required. A variety of subscription terms are available;
charges vary by subscription term selected and location.

●

Automatic Collision Notification, Emergency Assistance and Stolen Vehicle
Location are available in the United States, including Hawaii and Alaska,
Puerto Rico and Canada, and Enhanced Roadside Assistance are available
in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada.

●

Automatic Collision Notification, Emergency Assistance, Stolen Vehicle and
Enhanced Road Assistance are not available in the U.S. Virgin Islands. For
vehicles first sold in the U.S. Virgin Islands, no Safety Connect services will
function in or outside the U.S. Virgin Islands.

●

Safety Connect services are not subject to section 255 of the Telecommuni-
cations Act and the device is not TTY compatible.

■

Languages

The Safety Connect response center will offer support in multiple languages.
The Safety Connect system will offer voice prompts in English, Spanish, and
French. Please indicate your language of choice when enrolling.

■

When contacting the response center

You may be unable to contact the response center if the network is busy.

When the engine switch is turned to ON, the red indicator light comes

on for 2 seconds then turns off. Afterward, the green indicator light

comes on, indicating that the service is active.
The following indicator light patterns indicate specific system usage

conditions:

●

Green indicator light on = Active service

●

Green indicator light flashing = Safety Connect call in process

●

Red indicator light (except at vehicle start-up) = System malfunction
(contact your Toyota dealer)

●

No indicator light (off) = Safety Connect service not active

1-2. Emergency assistance

■

Automatic Collision Notification

In case of either airbag deployment or severe rear-end collision, the
system is designed to automatically call the response center. The
responding agent receives the vehicle’s location and attempts to
speak with the vehicle occupants to assess the level of emergency.
If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automati-
cally treats the call as an emergency, contacts the nearest emer-
gency services provider to describe the situation, and requests that
assistance be sent to the location.

■

Stolen Vehicle Location

If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect can work with local author-
ities to assist them in locating and recovering the vehicle. After filing
a police report, call the Customer Experience Center at 1-800-331-
4331 in the United States, 1-877-855-8377 in Puerto Rico or 1-888-
869-6828 in Canada, and follow the prompts for Safety Connect to
initiate this service.
In addition to assisting law enforcement with recovery of a stolen
vehicle, Safety-Connect-equipped vehicle location data may, under
certain circumstances, be shared with third parties to locate your
vehicle. Further information is available at Toyota.com in the United
States, Toyotapr.com in Puerto Rico and Toyota.ca in Canada.

■

Emergency Assistance Button (“SOS”)

In the event of an emergency on the road, push the “SOS” button to
reach the Safety Connect response center. The answering agent
will determine your vehicle’s location, assess the emergency, and
dispatch the necessary assistance required.

If you accidentally press the “SOS” button, tell the response-center
agent that you are not experiencing an emergency.

Important! Read this information before using Safety Connect.

■

Exposure to radio frequency signals

The Safety Connect system installed in your vehicle is a low-power
radio transmitter and receiver. It receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile wire-
less phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety stan-
dards previously set by the following U.S. and international
standards bodies.

●

ANSI (American National Standards Institute) C95.1 [1992]

●

NCRP (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measure-
ment) Report 86 [1986]

●

ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection) [1996]

Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic eval-
uations of the relevant scientific literature. Over 120 scientists, engi-
neers, and physicians from universities, and government health
agencies and industries reviewed the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect complies with the FCC guidelines in
addition to those standards.

■

If a safety system warning light does not come on

Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning light not
come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are
not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in death
or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immedi-
ately if this occurs.

■

Liquid crystal display

Small spots or light spots may appear on the display. This phenomenon is
characteristic of liquid crystal displays, and there is no problem continuing to
use the display.

WARNING

■

The information display at low temperatures

Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information display
monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an
accident resulting in personal death or injury.

Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the
door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic
key inside the vehicle.

●

As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting the elec-
tronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.

●

Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the electronic key is near the window.

●

The doors may unlock or lock if a large amount of water splashes on the
door handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash, when the electronic key is
within the effective range. (The doors will automatically be locked after
approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)

●

If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)

●

Touching the door lock or unlock sensor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation. Remove the gloves and touch the lock sensor
again.

●

When the lock operation is performed using the lock sensor, recognition sig-
nals will be shown up to two consecutive times. After this, no recognition
signals will be given.

●

If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this case, follow the
following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:
• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the

vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key

system. (

P. 141)

●

If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information dis-
play and a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock
all the doors.

●

The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again, or
use the lock sensor on the lower part of the door handle.
