REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
OPERATING PROCEDURE

When the keyfob is operated, the signal from the keyfob is sent and the remote keyless entry receiver
receives the signal and sends it to the BCM. The BCM only locks/unlocks the doors if the ID number
matches. (Remote control entry functions)

Using the keyfob, the transmitter sends radio waves to the remote keyless entry receiver, which then
sends the received waves to the BCM. Only if the ID number matches does the BCM lock/unlock the
doors. (Remote control door function)

Unless the key is inserted into the ignition key cylinder or one of the doors is opened within 1 minute after
the UNLOCK switch on the keyfob is pressed, all the doors are automatically locked. (Auto lock function)

When a door is locked or unlocked, the vehicle turn signal lamps flash and the horn sounds to verify oper-
ation. (Active check function)

When the key is in the ignition key cylinder (when the key switch is ON) and one of the doors is open, the
door lock function does not work even when the door lock is operated with the keyfob.

Keyfob ID set up is available.

If a keyfob is lost, a new keyfob can be set up. A maximum of 5 IDs can be set up simultaneously.
Remote Control Entry Functions
Operation Description

When a button on the keyfob is operated, the signal is sent from the keyfob and received by the remote
keyless entry receiver.

The received signal is sent to the BCM and compared with the registered ID number.

If the ID number matches, the BCM sends the lock/unlock signal to each door lock actuator.

When the door lock actuators receive this signal, each operates to lock/unlock its door.

BCM locks all doors with input of LOCK signal from keyfob.

When an UNLOCK signal is sent from keyfob once, driver's door will be unlocked.

Then, if an UNLOCK signal is sent from keyfob again within 5 seconds, all other doors will be unlocked.
Remote control entry operation conditions
Auto Lock Function
Operation Description

Unless the key is inserted into the ignition key cylinder, one of the doors is opened, or the keyfob is oper-
ated within 1 minute after a door lock is unlocked by keyfob operation, all the doors are automatically
locked.
The 1 minute timer count is executed by the BCM and after 1 minute, the BCM sends the lock signal to all
doors.
Lock operations are the same as for the remote control entry function.
Remote Control Automatic Back Door Function
Switching from all closed to all open

When a button on the keyfob is operated, the signal is sent from the keyfob and received by the remote
keyless entry receiver.

The received signal is sent to the BCM and compared with the registered ID number.

If the ID number matches, the BCM uses power window serial link communication to send the back door
open signal to the back door control unit

When the back door control unit receives the back door open signal for 0.5 seconds, if the remote control
automatic back door operation enable conditions are met, the warning chime is sounded and the back
door unlock signal is sent to the back door latch using communication.

When the back door latch receives the back door unlock signal, it operates the release actuator and
releases to back door latch.

Revision: November 2009 2006 QX56

The back door control unit operates the back door motor to open the back door. (At this time, speed con-
trol, input reverse, and overload reverse control are executed.)

When the back door is opened to the fully open position, the full-open position is detected with the rotation
sensor, the back door motor is stopped.

The door held by the back door stays at the full open position.
Full open → full closed operation

When a button of the keyfob is operated, the signal is sent from the keyfob and received by the remote
keyless entry receiver.

The received signal is sent to the BCM and compared with the registered ID number.

If the ID number matches, the BCM uses power window serial link communication to send the back door
close request signal to the back door control unit.

When the back door control unit receives the back door close request signal for 0.5 seconds, if the remote
control automatic back door operation enable conditions are met, the warning chime is sounded and the
back door motor begins closing the back door.

The back door control unit operates the magnetic clutch and the back door motor to close the back door.
(At this time, the back door control unit executes speed control, input reverse, and overload reverse con-
trol.)

When the back door comes to the half-latch state, the back door latch detects the half-latch state through
half-latch switch operation. The back door latch latches the back door.
For the automatic back door system operation enable conditions, refer to BL-99, "
AUTOMATIC BACK DOOR
SYSTEM" .
Active Check Function
Operation Description
When a door is locked or unlocked by keyfob operation, the vehicle turn signals flash and the horn sounds to
verify operation.

When a button on the keyfob is operated, the signal is sent from the remote controller and received by the
keyless remote entry receiver.

The received signal is sent to the BCM and compared with the registered ID number.

If the ID number matches, the BCM sends the turn signal flashing and horn signal to the IPDM E/R.

The IPDM E/R flashes the turn signal lamps and sounds the horn for each keyfob operation.
Operating function of hazard and horn reminder
Hazard and Horn Reminder
BCM output to IPDM E/R for horn reminder signal as DATA LINE (CAN-H and CAN-L).
The hazard and horn reminder has C mode (horn chirp mode) and S mode (non-horn chirp mode).
How to change hazard and horn reminder mode With CONSULT-II
Hazard and horn reminder can be changed using “WORK SUPPORT” mode in “MULTI ANSWER BACK SET".
Without CONSULT-II
Refer to Owner's Manual for instructions.
Interior Lamp Operation
When the following input signals are both supplied:

all door switches are in the OFF position. (when all the doors are closed);

interior lamp switch is in DOOR position.
Remote keyless entry system turns on interior lamp and ignition keyhole illumination (for 30 seconds) with
input of UNLOCK signal from keyfob.

Panic Alarm Operation
When key switch is OFF (when ignition key is not inserted in key cylinder), remote keyless entry system turns
on and off horn and headlamp intermittently with input of PANIC ALARM signal from keyfob.
The alarm automatically turns off after 25 seconds or when BCM receives any signal from keyfob.
Keyless Power Window Down (Open) Operation
When keyfob unlock switch is turned ON with ignition switch OFF, and the switch is detected to be ON contin-
uously for more than 1 second, the driver's door and passenger's door power windows are simultaneously
opened.
Power window is operated to open and the operation continues as long as the keyfob unlock switch is
pressed.

VEHICLE SECURITY (THEFT WARNING) SYSTEM
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
System DescriptionEIS0060F
DESCRIPTION
Operation Flow

Setting the vehicle security system
Initial condition

Ignition switch is in OFF position.
Disarmed phase

When the vehicle is being driven or when doors or glass hatch is open, the vehicle security system is set
in the disarmed phase on the assumption that the owner is inside or near the vehicle.
Pre-armed phase and armed phase

The vehicle security system turns into the "pre-armed" phase when hood, glass hatch and all doors are
closed and locked by keyfob. The security indicator lamp illuminates for 30 seconds, then the system
automatically shifts into the "armed" phase.
Canceling the set vehicle security system
When one of the following operations is performed, the armed phase is canceled.
1. Unlock the doors with the key or the keyfob.
2. Open the power back door with the keyfob. When the power back door is closed after opening the power back door with the keyfob, the system returns to the armed phase.
Activating the alarm operation of the vehicle security system
Make sure the system is in the armed phase.
When one of the following operations is performed, the system sounds the horns and flashes the headlamps
for about 50 seconds.
1. Engine hood, glass hatch or any door is opened before unlocking door with key or keyfob.
