This vehicle comes with the following keys:
Use the keys to turn  on and off the power 
system, and to lock and unlock the doors and 
to open the trunk.  You can also use the 
remote transmitter to lock and unlock the 
doors and trunk, and open the charge lid.
The built-in key can be us ed to lock/unlock the 
doors when the smart entry remote battery 
becomes weak and the power door lock/
unlock operation is disabled.
To remove the built-in key, slide the release 
knob and then pull out the key. To reinstall 
the built-in key, push th e built-in key into the 
smart entry remote until it clicks.1 Key Types and Functions

theft. 2 Immobilizer System  P. 144
Follow the advice below to  prevent damage to the 
keys:
•Do not leave the keys in  direct sunlight, or in 
locations with high temperature or high humidity.
•Do not drop the keys or set heavy objects on them.•Keep the keys away from liquids, dust and sand.
•Do not take the keys apart except for replacing the

Security System
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system prevents a key that has not been pre-registered from 
starting the power system. Each key cont ains electronic transmitters that use 
electronic signals to verify the key.
Pay attention to the follo wing when pressing the POWER button:
• Do not allow objects that emit strong radio waves near the  POWER button.
• Make sure the key is not covered by or touching a metal object.
• Do not bring a key from another vehi cle’s immobilizer system near the POWER 
button.
• Do not put the key near magnetic items.  Electronic devices, such as televisions 
and audio systems emit strong magnetic  fields. Note that even a key chain can 
become magnetic.
Security System Alarm
The security system alarm activates when  the trunk, hood or doors are forcibly 
opened. The alarm does not activate if th e trunk or doors are opened with the key, 
remote transmitter or smart entry system.
However, the alarm activates if a door is opened with the key and then the hood is 
opened before the power mode is set to ON.
■When the security sy stem alarm activates
The horn sounds intermittently and some exterior lights flash.
■To deactivate the security system alarm
Unlock the vehicle using the key, remote  transmitter or smart entry system. The 
system, along with the horn and flashing lights, is deactivated.
