Key number plate

The key number is stamped on the key number plate attached to the key set.

Write down the key number and keep it in another safe place, not in the vehicle. This number is needed to make a replacement key if you lose your key or lock it inside the vehicle.

For information on making replacement keys for vehicles with the immobilizer system, refer to “Security ID plate”.
