Electronic key battery depletion
The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the
engine stops. (P. 49)
Since the electronic key receives radio waves all the time, the key battery
will be depleted even when the electronic key is not being used. If any of
the following problems occurs, it is assumed that the key battery has
been depleted. Replace it with a new battery.
• The smart entry & start system or wireless remote control does not
work
• The operating range has narrowed
• The electronic key LED light does not come on
To prevent the electronic key battery from being depleted significantly, do
not place the key within 1 m (3 ft.) of the following electrical appliances,
which produce magnetism.
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Mobile and cordless phones, and their battery chargers
• Lamps
• Induction cookers
To operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system.
Note for electronic key operation
Do not get the electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the
system from the outside of the vehicle. Depending on the position and
holding conditions of the electronic key, the key may not be detected cor-
rectly and the system may not operate properly. (The alarm may go off
accidentally, or the door lock prevention may not function.)
Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection
areas), the system may not operate properly in the following cases.
• When locking or unlocking the doors, the electronic key is too close to
a door window or door handle, near the ground, or in a high place.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, interior floor, or in a door
pocket, or inside the glove box.

Alarms and warning indicators
A combination of exterior and interior alarms as well as warnings displayed
on the multi-information display are used to prevent theft of the vehicle and
unforeseeable accidents resulting from erroneous operation. Take appropri-
ate measures in response to any warning indications on the multi-informa-
tion display. (P. 479)
The following table describes circumstances and correction procedures
when only alarms are sounded.
Note for vehicle battery disconnection and reconnection
When the doors are attempted to be unlocked by means of the smart
entry & start system just after the vehicle battery has been reconnected,
it may fail. In this case, use the wireless remote control or mechanical
key to unlock and lock the doors.
The first engine start since the last time the vehicle battery was recon-
nected may fail. The engine will start from the 2nd attempt, so it is not a
malfunction.
