INTELLIGENT KEY OPERATING
RANGE
The Intelligent Key functions can only be
used when the Intelligent Key is within the
specified operating range from the one
touch unlock sensor/door request switch
and trunk open request switch.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or strong radio waves are present
near the operating location, the Intelligent
Key system’s operating range becomes nar-
rower, and the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.
The operating range is within 31.50 in (80
cm) from each one touch unlock sensor/doorhandle request switch
and trunk open
request switch.
If the Intelligent Key is too close to the door
glass, handle or rear bumper, the one touch
unlock sensor and request switches may not
function.
When the Intelligent Key is within the
operating range, it is possible for anyone
who does not carry the Intelligent Key to use
the one touch unlock sensor or request
switches to lock or unlock the doors and
open the trunk lid.

REMOTE ENGINE START OPER-
ATING RANGE
The remote engine start function can only be
used when the Intelligent Key is within the
specified operating range from the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave sources
are present near the operating location, the
Intelligent Key operating range becomes
narrower, and the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.
The remote engine start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the
vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE ENGINE
To use the remote start function to start the
engine, perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Push the LOCK
button to lock all
doors.
3. Within 5 seconds push and hold the
remote engine start
button until
the turn signal lights flash and the tail
lights illuminate. If the vehicle is notwithin view, push and hold the remote
engine start
button for at least 2
seconds.
The following events will occur when the
engine starts:
.The front parking lights will turn on and
remain on as long as the engine is
running.
.The doors will be locked and the air
conditioner system may turn on.
.The engine will continue to run for about
10 minutes. Repeat the steps to extend
the time for an additional 10 minutes.
See “Extending engine run time” (P.3-
20).
Depress and hold the brake pedal, then place
the ignition switch in the ON position before
driving. For further instructions, see “Driving
the vehicle” (P.5-16).
EXTENDING ENGINE RUN TIME
The remote engine start function can be
extended one time by performing the steps
listed in “Remote starting the engine” (P.3-
20). Run time will be calculated as follows:
.The first 10 minute run time will start
when the remote engine start function is
performed.
.The second 10 minutes will start imme-
diately when the remote engine start
function is performed. For example, ifthe engine has been running for 5
minutes, and 10 minutes are added, the
engine will run for a total of 15 minutes.
.Extending engine run time will count
towards the two remote start limit.
A maximum of two remote starts, or a single
start with an extension, are allowed be-
tween ignition cycles.
The ignition switch must be cycled to the ON
position and then back to the OFF position
before the remote engine start procedure
