KEYLESS ENTRY HAZARD ANSWERBACK AND
HORN ANSWERBACK FUNCTION
.
KEYLESS ENTRY HAZARD ANSWERBACK
FUNCTION*
1
If the keyless entry transmitter is used to send a lock signal to
the ETACS-ECU, all doors are locked and the hazard warning
lamps flash once. If an unlock signal is sent, the driver's door is
unlocked first,*
2 and if a second signal is sent, all doors are
unlocked. Each time the unlock signal is sent, the hazard warn-
ing lamps flash twice.
NOTE: *
1: The hazard answerback function can be customized
using the keyless entry transmitter (Refer to Group 42 P.42-72,
Keyless Entry System) or by using the multi center display
(middle grade type). Refer to P.54B-486.
NOTE: *
2: Vehicles with a multi center display (middle grade
type) can be customized so that a single unlock operation will
unlock all doors. Refer to P.54B-486.
.
KEYLESS ENTRY HORN ANSWERBACK
FUNCTION
If the keyless entry transmitter is used to send a lock signal to
the ETACS-ECU, the first signal locks all doors while the sec-
ond signal sounds the horn once.
NOTE: : The horn answerback function can be customized by
using the keyless entry transmitter (Refer to Group 42 P.42-72,
Keyless Entry System) or by using the multi center display
(middle grade type). Refer to P.54B-486.
TIMED LOCKING MECHANISM
.After unlocking the doors with the keyless entry transmitter, if
no doors are opened, if the ignition key is not inserted or if the
locking function is not operated, the ETACS-ECU automatically
locks the doors in 30 seconds.
NOTE: The timed locking function can be customized on vehi-
cles equipped with a multi center display (middle grade type).
Refer to P.54B-486.
