Operation of each component
IS300h_EE(OM53B95E)
Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses weak radio waves. In the following situa-
tions, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control and
immobilizer system from operating properly. (Ways of coping: P. 548)
When the electronic key battery is depleted
Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large display,
airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical noise
When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wire-
less communication device
When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
•Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that emit
radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the rear
window

1523-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
IS300h_EE(OM53B95E)
Note for the entry function (if equipped)
Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas), the
system may not operate properly in the following cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to the
rear bumper center when the trunk is opened.
Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the door
pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave reception con-
ditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the doors will
become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic key inside
the vehicle.
As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting the electronic
key can be used to unlock the vehicle.
The doors may unlock or lock if a large amount of water splashes on the door
handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash, when the electronic key is within the
effective range. (The doors will automatically be locked after approximately 30
seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic key
is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be unlocked by
the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock the doors.)
Touching the door lock or unlock sensor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation.
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective
range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this case, follow the follow-
ing correction procedures to wash the vehicle:
• Place the electronic key in a location 2 m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi-
cle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart entry &
start system. (P. 150)
If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet during
a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information display and a
buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors.
The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice, snow,
mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again, or use the lock
sensor on the lower part of the door handle.
A sudden handle operation or a handle operation immediately after entering the
effective range may prevent the doors from being unlocked. Touch the door
unlock sensor and check that the doors are unlocked before pulling the door
handle again.
Unlocking the vehicle may take more time if another electronic key is within
the effective range.

Operation of each component
IS300h_EE(OM53B95E)
Note for the push-start function
Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas), the
system may not operate properly when the electronic key is on the instrument
panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the door pockets or glove box when the
hybrid system is started or power switch modes are changed.
Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the hybrid system if the electronic key is near the window.
When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
Vehicles with entry function: To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the
electronic key within 2 m (6 ft.) of the vehicle.
The smart entry & start system can be deactivated in advance. (P. 575)
To operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. Do not get the
electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the system from the out-
side of the vehicle.
Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The
alarm may go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention function may not
operate.)
Do not leave the electronic key inside the luggage compartment.
The key confinement prevention function may not operate, depending on the
location of the key (close to a spare tire [if equipped], the inside edge of the lug-
gage compartment), conditions (inside a metal bag, close to metallic objects)
and the radio waves in the surrounding area. (P. 146)
If the smart entry & start system does not operate properly
Locking and unlocking the doors and opening the trunk: Use the mechanical
key.
(P. 548)
Starting the hybrid system: P. 5 4 9
Customization
Settings (e. g. smart entry & start system) can be changed.
(Customizable features: P. 575)
If the smart entry & start system has been deactivated in a customized setting
Locking and unlocking the doors and opening the trunk:
Use the wireless remote control or mechanical key. (P. 136, 144, 548)

Stopping the hybrid system: P. 210

1823-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors
IS300h_EE(OM53B95E)
Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The power switch is in ACCESSORY or ON mode.
Linked mirror function when reversing (if equipped)
When either “L” or “R” of the mirror select switch is selected, the outside rear
view mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing
in order to give a better view of the ground. To disable this function, select nei-
ther “L” nor “R”.
If the mirror angle adjustment switch is operated while the linked mirror func-
tion is in operation, the angle and position of the mirrors can be remembered,
and the mirrors will operate at the angle adjusted to the last time the linked mir-
ror function was operated.
However, because the mirrors move based on the angle they are in when the
linked mirror function is not operating, the mirror angle when the linked mirror
function is operating will also be changed if the mirrors are adjusted while the
function is not operating.
When the mirrors are fogged up
The outside rear view mirrors can be cleared using the mirror defoggers. Turn on
the rear window defogger to turn on the outside rear view mirror defoggers. (P.
404)
Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle (if equipped)
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recalled automatically
by the driving position memory. (P. 168)
Auto anti-glare function (if equipped)
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the outside
rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view
mirror to reduce reflected light. (P. 179)
Using automatic mode in cold weather
When automatic mode is used in cold weather, the door mirror could freeze up
and automatic stowing and return may not be possible. In this case, remove any
ice and snow from the door mirror, then either operate the mirror using manual
mode or move the mirror by hand.
Customization
The automatic mirror folding and extending operation can be changed.
