• BCM receives the sleep-ready signal (ready) from IPDM E/R and combination meter via CAN communica-
tion.
• BCM transmits the sleep wake up signal (sleep) to each unit when all of the CAN sleep conditions are ful-
filled.
• Each unit stops the transmission of CAN communication with the sleep wakeup signal. BCM is in CAN com- munication sleep mode.
• BCM is in the low power consumption mode and performs the low power consumption control when all of the
BCM sleep conditions are fulfilled with CAN sleep condition.
Sleep condition
Wake-up operation
• BCM changes from the low power consumption m ode to the CAN communication sleep mode when the any
of the BCM wake-up conditions are fulfilled. Only the control with BCM is activated.
• BCM transmits the sleep wake up signal (wake up) to each unit when any of the CAN wake-up conditions are fulfilled. It changes from the low power consum ption mode or the CAN communication sleep mode to the
normal mode.
• Each unit starts the transmission of CAN communicati on with the sleep wake up signal. In addition, the com-
bination meter transmits the wake up signal to BCM via CAN communication to report the CAN communica-
tion start.

WARNING METHOD
The following table shows the alarm or warning methods with chime.
Warning/Information functions Operation procedure
Intelligent Key system malfunction When a malfun ction is detected on BCM, “KEY” warning lamp illuminates.
OFF position warning For internalWhen condition A, B or condition C is satisfied
• Condition A
- Ignition switch: ACC position
- Door switch (driver side ): ON (Door is open)
• Condition B
- Turn ignition switch from ON to OFF while door is open
• Condition C
- Intelligent Key backside is contacted to ignition switch while brake pedal is depressed and ignition switch is LOCK or OFF (When the Intelligent
Key battery is discharged)
- Door switch (driver side ): ON (Door is open)
For external OFF position warning (For internal) is in active mode, driver side door is
closed.
NOTE:
OFF position (For external) active only when each of the sequence occurs
as below: P position warning → ACC warning → OFF position warning (For
internal) → OFF position warning (For internal)
P position warning For internal
• Shift position: Except P (Park) position
• Engine is running to stopped (ignition switch is ON to OFF)
For external Warning is activated when driver door is closed from the open position
while the P (Park) position warning (for inside vehicle) is ON.
ACC warning • When P (Park) position warning is in active mode, shift position changes
P (Park) position
• Ignition switch: ACC position
Ta k e a w a y w a r n i n g Door is open to close
• Ignition switch: Except Lock position
• Door switch: ON to OFF (Door is open to close)
• Intelligent Key cannot be detected inside the vehicle
Door is open • Ignition switch: Except Lock position
• Door switch: ON (Door is open)
• Key ID verification every 5 seconds when registered Intelligent Key can-
not be detected inside the vehicle
Push-button ignition
switch operation • Ignition switch: Except Lock position
• Press push-button ignition switch
• Intelligent Key cannot be detected inside the vehicle
Door lock operation warning When door lock operation is requested while door lock operating condition
of door request switch (if equipped) or Intelligent Key are not satisfied
Engine start information Ignition switch is ON po-
sition • Ignition switch: ON position
• Shift position: P (Park) position*
• Engine is stopped
Ignition switch is except
ON position • Ignition switch: Except ON position
• Shift position: P (Park) position*
• Intelligent Key is inserted in key slot or Intelligent Key can be detected inside the vehicle
Intelligent Key low battery warning When Intelligent Key is low battery, BCM is detected after ignition switch is
turned ON
Key ID warning When registered Intelligent Key cannot be detected inside the vehicle after
ignition switch is turned ON
Key ID verification information • When registered Intelligent Key cannot be detected inside the vehicle
• Intelligent Key battery is discharged
• When NATS antenna amp cannot be detected NATS ID
