Keys
Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.
1. Master key—This key works in every
lock.
2. Sub key—This key will not work in the
back door and glove box.
To protect things locked in the glove box
or luggage compartment when you have
your vehicle parked, leave the sub key
with the attendant.
Since the side doors and back door can
be locked without a key, you should al-
ways carry a spare master key in case
you accidentally lock your keys inside the
vehicle.
KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you
need additional keys, duplicates can be
made by a Toyota dealer using the key
number.
We recommend to write down the key
number and keep it in safe place.
Side doors—
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY
Insert the key into the keyhole and turn
it.
To lock: Turn the key forward.
To unlock: Turn the key backward.
Vehicles with a power door lock system—
Both side doors and back door lock and
unlock simultaneously with either side
door. In the driver’s door lock, turning the
key once will unlock the driver’s door and
twice in succession will unlock both side
doors and back door simultaneously.

To unlock: Pull the knob backward.
Closing the side door with the lock knob
in the lock position will also lock the side
door. Be careful not to lock your keys in
the vehicle.
Vehicles with a power door lock sys-
tem—The side doors cannot be locked if
you leave the key in the ignition switch.
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH
POWER DOOR LOCK SWITCH

CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the side
doors are closed and locked, espe-
cially when small children are in the
vehicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the side doors
helps prevent the driver and passen-
gers from being thrown out from the
vehicle during an accident. It also
helps prevent the side doors from be-
ing opened unintentionally.
—Wireless remote control
Locking operation
Unlocking operation
Your vehicle has a wireless remote
control system that can lock or unlock
both side doors and back door, or
activate the theft deterrent system from
a distance within approximately 1 m (3
ft.) of the vehicle.
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE SIDE
DOORS AND BACK DOOR
To lock and unlock both side doors and
back door, push the switches of the
transmitter slowly and securely.
To lock: Push the “LOCK” switch. Both
side doors and back door are locked si-
multaneously. At this time, parking lights,
side marker lights and tail lights flash.
Check to see that both side doors and
back door are securely locked.
If either side doors or back door is not
securely closed, or if the key is in the
ignition switch, locking cannot be per-
formed by the “LOCK” switch.
To unlock: Push the “UNLOCK” switch
once to unlock the driver’s door alone.
Pushing the switch twice within 3 seconds
unlocks both side doors and back door
simultaneously. At this time, parking lights,
side marker lights and tail lights flash
twice.

When both side doors and back door are
unlocked simultaneously with a wireless
remote control transmitter, the interior light
comes on for about 15 seconds and then
fades out, even if the door is not opened.
(For further information, see “Interior light”
in Section 1-4.)
You have 30 seconds to open a door after
using the wireless remote unlock feature.
If a door is not opened by then, both side
doors and back door will be automatically

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
Always make sure the head, hands
and other parts of the body of all
occupants are kept completely in-
side the vehicle before you close
the power windows. If someone’s
neck, head or hands gets caught in
a closing window, it could result in
a serious injury. When anyone
closes the power windows, be sure
that they operate the windows safe-
ly.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
window switches without supervi-
sion. Use the window lock switch to
prevent them from making unex-
pected use of the switches.
Never leave small children alone in

Electric moon roof
Tilting operation
Sliding operation
To operate the moon roof, use the
switch beside the interior light.
The moon roof works when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.
Key off operation: If both side doors are
closed, it works for 43 seconds even after
the ignition switch is turned off. It stops
working when either side door is opened.
Tilting operation—
To tilt up: Push the switch briefly on the
“OPEN” side. The roof will tilt up com-
pletely.
To stop the roof partway, push the switch
either the “OPEN” or “CLOSE” side briefly.
The sun shade will open lightly with the
moon roof. To open the sun shade com-
pletely, pull it back by hand.
To lower: Push the switch briefly on the
“CLOSE” side. The roof will lower com-
pletely.
Sliding operation—
To open (with the roof tilting up): Push the
switch on the “OPEN” side briefly. The
roof will open completely.
To open (with the roof tilting down): Push
the switch on the “OPEN” side for more
than 2 seconds. The roof will open com-
pletely after tilting up.

WWW.MANUALS.WS
WWW.MANUALS.WS
Celica_U
20 2000 CELICA (OM20735U)
To stop the roof partway, push the switch
either the “OPEN” or “CLOSE” side briefly.
The sun shade will be opened together
with the roof.
To close: Push the switch briefly on the
“CLOSE” side. The roof will close com-
pletely.
Sun shade operation—
The sun shade can be closed by hand.
Jam protection function: During closing
operation, the moon roof stops and opens
half way if something gets caught between
the moon roof and frame.
If the moon roof receives a strong impact,
this function may work even if nothing is
caught.
When the battery is disconnected, the
moon roof can not operate automatically
and the jam protection function will not
function correctly. Therefore, you need to
normalize the moon roof as follows.
To normalize: Close the moon roof, and
continue to hold the switch up briefly after
the moon roof reaches the completely
closed position and the motor is blocked.
If the moon roof cannot be operated prop-
erly, have it checked by your Toyota deal-
er.
There are cases where malfunctions may
activate the jam protection function, which
will prevent the roof from closing com-
pletely. In this case, pushing and holding
the switch on the “CLOSE” side will close
the roof completely.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, always
keep the head, hands and other
parts of the body of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Other-
wise, you could be seriously injured
if the vehicle stops suddenly or if
the vehicle is involved in an acci-
dent.
Always make sure nobody places
his/her head, hands and other parts
of the body in the roof opening be-
fore you close the roof. If some-
one’s neck, head or hands gets
caught in the closing roof, it could
result in a serious injury. When
anyone closes the roof, first make
sure it is safe to do so.
Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the moon roof switches and get
trapped in the roof opening. Unat-
tended children can become in-
volved in serious accidents.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.
Never try jamming any part of your
body to make the jam protection
function work intentionally.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the moon roof is fully
closed.
