passengers seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the
additional seat cushion could cause
sensor interference.
If a small child is seated on the
passengers seat, the warning beep
may not operate.
Mexico
If the vehicle speed exceeds about
12 MPH (20 km/h) with the driver or
passengers seat belt unfastened, a
warning beep sounds continuously. If
the seat belt remains unfastened, the
beep sound stops once and then
continues for about 90 seconds. The
beep stops after the driver or
passengers seat belt is fastened.
Until a seat belt is fastened or a given
period of time has elapsed, the beep
sound will not stop even if the vehicle
speed falls below 12 MPH (20 km/h).
Warning!
Placing heavy items on the front
passenger seat may cause the front
passenger seat belt warning function to
operate depending on the weight of the
item.
To allow the front passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion on the
front passenger seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional
seat cushion could cause sensor
interference.
When a small child sits on the front
passenger seat, it is possible that the
warning beep will not operate.
Ignition Not Switched OFF
If the driver's door is opened while the
ignition is placed in the ACC position, a
continuous beep sound will be heard to
notify the driver that the ignition has not
been placed in the OFF position.
Left in this condition, the keyless entry
system will not operate, the car cannot
be locked, and the battery power will
be depleted.
Key Removed From Vehicle
Warning Beep
A beep sound will be heard 6 times
and the
warning light (red) will flash
continuously if the ignition has not been
placed in the OFF position, all the doors
are closed, and the key fob is removed
from the vehicle.
This is to notify the driver that the key
fob has been removed from the vehicle
and the ignition has not been placed in
the OFF position. Note:
Because the key fob uses
low-intensity radio waves, the
warning may activate if the key fob
is carried together with a metal object
or it is placed in a poor signal reception
area.
Request Switch Inoperable Warning
Beep — If Equipped With Advanced
Keyless Function
If the request switch on the exterior
door handle is pushed with a door
open, or the ignition has not been
placed in the OFF position, a beep will
be heard for about 2 seconds to
indicate that the doors, and trunk lid
cannot be locked.
Key Left-In-Trunk Compartment
Warning Beep — If Equipped With
Advanced Keyless Function
If the key fob is left in the trunk with all
doors locked and the trunk lid closed, a
beep sound is heard for about
10 seconds to remind the driver the key
fob has been left in the trunk.
If this happens, open the trunk lid by
pushing the electric trunk lid opener
and remove the key fob.
A key fob removed from the trunk may
not function because its functions may
have been temporarily suspended. To
restore the key fob function, perform
the applicable procedure (see
paragraph “Keys” in “Getting to know
your vehicle” chapter).

correctly.
Warning!
When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key fob from the vehicle and lock your

or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle
unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the transmission gear
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children, and do not leave the ignition of a
vehicle equipped with Advanced Keyless
Entry in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.

parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat
build-up may cause serious injury or death.

4. Place the start button in the ON
mode, push and release it as soon as
the engine starts. If the engine does not
start within 10 seconds, push the start
button to OFF mode and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure.

Cold Weather Operation
Regarding Cold Start Disable
When the ambient temperature is
extremely low, the engine may not
crank even when the engine starting
procedure is performed. At this time,
the Cold Start Disable Indicator light in
the instrument cluster flashes. However,
this does not indicate a problem.
Perform the necessary procedures (see
“Warning lights And Messages”
paragraph in “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” chapter).
Regarding Ice Breaker
When the ambient temperature is low,
the start of cranking may be delayed
after engine starting procedure is
performed. At this time, the Cold Start
Disable Indicator light in the instrument
cluster illumintes. However, this does
not indicate a problem.
Refer to your authorized dealer
regarding other related parts which are
to be input such as function name,
operating scenario (condition) of each
function, indicator operation, and user
operation/procedure information.
