Conditions affecting operation
The smart access system with push-button start uses weak radio waves. In the fol-
lowing situations, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle
may be affected, preventing the smart access system with push-button start, wire-
less remote control and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.

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 devices ●
When the electronic key is in contact wi th, or is covered by the following metal-
lic object
• Card 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 ●

(The card key battery life is about a year and a half.) ●
If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the engine

ton start or the wireless remote control function does not operate, or the detec-
tion area becomes smaller, the battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary. (  P. 7 8 0 )●
