REPAIRING PROCEDURE
1. Wipe broken heat wire and its surrounding area clean with acloth dampened in alcohol.
2. Apply a small amount of conductive silver composition to tip of drawing pen.
Shake silver composition container before use.
3. Place ruler on glass along broken line. Deposit conductive silver composition on break with drawing pen. Slightly overlap existing
heat wire on both sides [preferably 5 mm (0.20 in)] of the break.
4. After repair has been completed, check repaired wire for conti- nuity. This check should be conducted 10 minutes after silver
composition is deposited.
Do not touch repaired area while test is being conducted.
5. Apply a constant stream of hot air directly to the repaired area for approximately 20 minutes with a heat gun. A minimum dis-
tance of 3 cm (1.2 in) should be kept between repaired area and
hot air outlet.
If a heat gun is not available, let the repaired area dry for 24

Then, if an UNLOCK signal is transmitted from Intell igent Key again within 5 seconds, all other doors will be
unlocked.
When a liftgate signal is transmitted from Intelligent Key for more than 0.5 second, the back door operates to
the full open position. After opening, another signal will cause the back door to close.
HAZARD AND HORN REMINDER FUNCTION
When doors are locked or unlocked by Intelligent Key, BCM flashes hazard warning lamps as a reminder and
sends horn chirp signal to IPDM E/R. IPDM E/R sounds horn as a reminder.
The hazard and horn reminder has a horn chirp mode (C mode) and a non-horn chirp mode (S mode).
Operating function of hazard and horn reminder
Hazard and horn reminders do not operate if any door switch is ON (any door is OPEN).

ALARM signal from Intelligent Key through the remote keyless entry receiver and the Intelligent Key unit.
BCM turns on and off headlamp intermittently and transmits theft warning horn signal to IPDM E/R. Then,
IPDM E/R turns on and off horn intermittently.
The headlamp flashes and the horn sounds intermittently.
The alarm automatically turns off:
• After 25 seconds
• When BCM receives any signal from Intelligent Key
Panic alarm function mode can be changed by PANIC ALARM SET mode in “WORK SUPPORT”. Refer to
