2. Start function actuation area—Inside
of the cabin
The start function may not be acti-
vated, if the key is in the auxiliary box
of the driver ’s side instrument panel
and glove box, on the instrument pan-
el, on the package tray, on the floor,
etc.
In the following cases, the smart key
system may not operate properly.
When facilities issuing strong electro-
magnetic waves such as TV towers,
electric power stations, broad casting
stations are nearby.
In places where automated payment fa-
cilities are installed (such as gas sta-
tions).
When you are carrying a electronic key
together with a mobile communications
system such as a two−way radio or
cellular phone.
When the electronic key is in contact
with or covered by a metallic object.
When another person is operating a
wireless remote control function on
another vehicle near your vehicle.
When the battery is discharged. To re-
place the battery, see “—Replacing bat-
tery” on page 28 in this Section.
When the electronic key is near a
high−voltage or noise−emitting device.
When you are carrying an electronic
key together with a key for another
smart key system equipped vehicle or
another instrument emitting radio
waves.
Depending on the position of the key
or vehicle body shape, the key may
not work well even within the actuation
area.
When the key surface is covered by a
sticker, etc. that may cut off electro-
magnetic wave.
Even if the smart key system does not
operate properly, you can still enter and
start the engine. For further information,

BATTERY POWER SAVING
Both the vehicle and key transmitters are
always sending signals to each other. To
prevent battery drain, the smart key sys-
tem is automatically deactivated in the fol-
lowing conditions:
If the electronic key is left outside of
the vehicle and within the effective
range of the entry function actuation
area for more than 10 minutes.
If the door lock or unlock operation is
not performed more than 2 weeks.
The key and the vehicle are communicat-
ing even while the vehicle is not being
driven. Do not leave the key near the
vehicle (within 2 m [7 ft.]).
The vehicle battery may drain if the
vehicle is not used for a long period of
time. To prevent battery drain, disconnect
the battery negative (−) terminal or disable
the smart key system. (For details about

side door handle or trunk open button
while carrying the electronic key.
(b) Perform a wireless remote control op-
eration.
(c) Insert and turn the mechanical key in
the keyhole of the driver’s door.If the electronic key receives strong elec-
tromagnetic waves over a period of time,
the battery can be drastically run down.
You should always keep the following
electrical appliances at least 1 m (3 ft.)
away from the electronic key.
TV
Personal computer
Cellular phone or cordless phone re-
charger unit
Electric light stand
Fluorescent desk light

Vehicles with smart key system
To open the trunk lid from the outside,
insert the master key (vehicles with key
cylindertype ignition switch) or me-
chanical key (vehicles with smart key
system) and turn it clockwise.
See “—Stowage precautions” on page 310
in Section 2 for precautions when loading
luggage.
To close the trunk lid, lower it and press
down on it. After closing the trunk lid, try
pulling it up to make sure it is securely
closed.
The trunk lid can be opened with the wire-
less remote control transmitter, see

Keep the trunk lid closed while driv-
ing. This not only keeps the luggage
from being thrown out but also pre-
vents exhaust gases from entering
the vehicle.
OPENING TRUNK WITH SMART KEY
SYSTEM
When you carry the registered key into
the actuation area, the trunk can be
opened. For further information of actua-
tion area, see “Smart key system” on

A warning buzzer may sound when:
The key is brought into the cabin after
the trunk is opened, and the trunk is
then closed.
The key is near the trunk when the
trunk is closed.
The buzzer may sound even when the key
is not in the trunk. This does not indicate
a problem. However, under these circum-
stances, the trunk cannot be opened using
the smart key system. Open the trunk
using other methods.
If you left the key in the trunk and close
it when all side doors are locked, a beep
will sound continuously for 2 seconds. You
can open the trunk pushing the trunk
opener switch without carrying another
key. However, in some instances, the
beep may not sound when the trunk is
closed depending on the location of the
key in the trunk. In addition, when the
doors are open or unlocked, the beep may
not sound when the trunk is closed. When
closing the trunk, make sure that the key
is not left in it.
To open the trunk lid from the driver’s
seat, pull up on the lock release lever.
To deactivate this lock release lever from
opening the trunk lid, see “—Luggage se-
curity system” described below.This system helps protect things locked
in the trunk by safeguarding the trunk
lid lock release lever from unwanted
access.
1. Close the trunk lid. Insert the master
key (vehicles with key cylindertype
ignition switch) or mechanical key
(vehicles with smart key system) and
turn it counterclockwise to deacti-
vate the trunk lid lock release lever.
After the operation, try pulling up on the
trunk lid lock release lever to make sure
it is locked.

2. Vehicles with trunk storage exten-
sion—After closing the door located
behind the rear seat armrest, insert
the master key (vehicles with key
cylindertype ignition switch) or me-
chanical key (vehicles with smart key
system) and turn it clockwise to lock
the door.
NOTICE
Implement the above steps to maxi-
mize security of the luggage in the
trunk whenever the vehicle is unat-
tended.
If a person is locked in the trunk,
he/she can pull up the phosphorescent
strap on the inside of trunk lid to open
the trunk lid.
The phosphorescent (glow−in−the−dark)
strap will continue to glow for a time after
the trunk lid is closed. Exposing the strap
to stronger light will cause it to glow lon-
ger.
CAUTION
Always lock the trunk lid and all
doors, and keep away the vehicle
keys out of children’s reach.
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Unsupervised children
may lock themselves in the vehicle
or trunk and suffer serious injuries
or death.
