■Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses weak radio waves. In the following situations, the
communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be affected, preventing
the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control and engine immobilizer system
from operating properly. (Ways of coping: →P. 5 2 4 )
●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 wireless com-
munication 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 win-
dow

IS250_EE(OM53C51E)
■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 engine is started or
engine switch modes are changed.
●Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start the engine
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. 551)
■To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. Do not get the elec-
tronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the system from the outside 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 luggage compart-
ment), conditions (inside a metal bag, close to metallic objects) and the radio waves in
the surrounding area. (→P. 1 2 7 )
■If the smart entry & start system does not operate properly
●Locking and unlocking the doors and opening the trunk: Use the mechanical key.
(→P. 5 2 4 )
●Starting the engine: →P. 5 2 5
■Customization
Settings (e. g. smart entry & start system) can be changed.
(Customizable features: →P. 551)
■If the smart entry & start system has been deactivated in a customized setting

Use the wireless remote control or mechanical key. (→P. 118, 126, 524)
●Starting the engine and changing engine switch modes: →P. 5 2 5
●Stopping the engine: →P. 1 9 2

1483-3. Adjusting the seats
IS250_EE(OM53C51E)
■Power easy access system (if equipped)
The driver’s seat and steering wheel move in accordance with engine switch mode and
the driver’s seat belt condition. (→P. 151)
■When adjusting the seat
●Take care when adjusting the seat so that the head restraint does not touch the ceiling.
●Vehicles with folding type rear seats: When folding down a rear seatback, if it interferes
with a front seatback, adjust the front seat position so that the seats no longer interfere
with each other. However, if adjusting the front seat position causes the correct driving
posture to not be maintained, return the rear seatback to its original position. (→P. 1 4 9 )
CAUTION
■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers are not
injured by the moving seat.
●Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
●Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not get stuck.
■Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not recline the seat
more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk
of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
