function are both on, the door lock operates as follows.
• When shifting the shift lever to any position other than P, all the doors will be

• If the vehicle is started with all the d oors locked, the speed linked door locking
function would not operate.
• If the vehicle is started with any door unlocked, the speed linked door locking
function will operate.

lock function (time elapsed before the automatic door lock function is activated if a
door is not opened after being unlocked) ac tivates, the signals will be generated in
accordance with the operation signal (buzzers) and the operation signal (emer-
gency flashers) settings.
■When customizing using the Remote Touch
Stop the vehicle in a safe place, apply the parking brake, and shift the shift lever to P.
Also, to prevent battery discharge, leave the engine running while customizing the
features.

As the engine needs to be running during customization, ensure that the vehicle is
parked in a place with adequate ventilatio n. In a closed area such as a garage,
exhaust gases including harmful carbon mo noxide (CO) may collect and enter the
vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
