System DescriptionNIS001X8
The Intelligent Key system is a system that makes it possible to lock and unlock the door locks (door lock/
unlock function), open the trunk (trunk open function), and start the engine (engine start function) by carry-
ing around the Intelligent Key (without some key operation), which operates based on the results of elec-
tronic ID verification using two-way communications between the Intelligent Key and the vehicle
(Intelligent Key unit).
CAUTION:
The driver should always carry the Intelligent Key
Operation of the remote controller buttons on the Intelligent Key also provides the same functions as the
remote controller entry system. (Remote keyless entry functions)
If an action that does not meet the operating conditions of the Intelligent Key system is taken, the buzzer
goes off to inform the driver. (Warning chime functions)
When a door lock is locked, unlocked or trunk open with request switch or remote controller button opera-
tion, the hazard lamps flash and the Intelligent Key warning buzzer or horn sounds (Hazard and buzzer/
horn reminder function).
Even if the Intelligent Key battery is completely discharged, the door locks can be locked and unlocked
with the mechanical key built into the Intelligent Key, and then initiates engine by inserting Intelligent Key
into key slot.
The settings for each function can be changed with the CONSULT-II.
If an Intelligent Key is lost, a new Intelligent Key can be registered. A maximum of 4 Intelligent Keys can
be registered.
It has been made possible to diagnose the system and register an Intelligent Key with the CONSULT-II.
DOOR LOCK/UNLOCK/TRUNK OPEN FUNCTION
Only when pressing the request switch, it is possible to lock and unlock the door and open the trunk by carry-
ing around the Intelligent Key (without some key operation).
System Diagram
Operation Description/Door Lock/Unlock
When the Intelligent Key unit detects that each door request switch is pressed, it starts the outside key
antenna and inside key antenna corresponding to the pressed door request switch and sends the request
signal to the Intelligent Key. And then, make sure that the Intelligent Key is near the door.
If the Intelligent Key is within the outside key antenna detection area, it receives the request signal and
sends the key ID signal to the Intelligent Key unit via remote keyless entry receiver.
Intelligent Key unit receives the key ID signal and compares it with the registered key ID.
If the key ID check result is OK, the Intelligent Key unit sends the door lock/unlock request signal to BCM
(Body control module) via CAN communication line.
Intelligent Key unit sends the door lock/unlock signal and sounds Intelligent Key buzzer warning (lock: 1
time, unlock: 2 times) at the same time.

To prevent serious burns:
Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
Dispose of or recycle drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning
parts in an appropriate manner.
Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
Clean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.
Replace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers, cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new
ones.
Replace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and needle bearings as a set.
Arrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their assembled locations and sequence.
Do not touch the terminals of electrical components which use microcomputers (such as ECM).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
After disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indicate the proper connection.
Use only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
Use approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents when required.
Use hand tools, power tools (disassembly only) and recom-
mended special tools where specified for safe and efficient ser-
vice repairs.
When repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust systems,
check all affected lines for leaks.
Before servicing the vehicle:
Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate cov-
ers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch paint.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do not carelessly disconnect the harness
connectors which are related to the engine control system and TCM (transmission control module)
system. The connectors should be disconnected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
Precautions for Three Way CatalystNAS0009G
If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the catalyst temperature will be excessively high. To
prevent this, follow the instructions.
Use unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously damage the three way catalyst.
When checking for ignition spark or measuring engine compression, make tests quickly and only when
necessary.
