The smart access system with push-button start uses weak radio waves. In the fol-
lowing situations, the communication betw een the electronic key and the vehicle
may be affected, preventing the smart access system with push-button start, wire-
less remote control and immobilize r system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping: P. 7 9 3 )●
When the electronic key battery is depleted●
Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio st ation, 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 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 multiple electronic keys are in the vicinity●
When another wireless key (that emits radio waves) is being used nearby●
When carrying the electronic key togeth er with the following devices that emit
radio waves

Notes for locking the doors ●
Touching the door lock sensor while we aring gloves may delay or prevent lock
operation. Remove the gloves and touch the lock sensor again.●
When the lock operation is performed using the lock sensor, recognition signals
will be shown up to two consecutive times. After this, no recognition signals will
be given. ●
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective
range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key in a position 6 ft.
(2 m) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehicle is being washed. (Take
care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)●
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 atte mpt to operate it again, or use the lock
sensor on the lower part of the door handle.●
Fingernails may scrape against the door during operation of the door handle.
Be careful not to injure fingernails or damage the surface of the door. ■
Notes for the unlocking function ●
Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.●
A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the original
position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle again.●
If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly longer
to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped. ■
When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods ●
To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not le ave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2 m)
of the vehicle.
●
The smart access system with push-butto n start can be deactivated in advance.
