Before driving ●
To reduce key battery depletion when the
electronic key is to not be used for long
periods of time, set the electronic key to
the battery-saving mode. ( → P.120)●

depleted even if the electronic key is not
used. The following symptoms indicate
that the electronic key battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery when nec-
essary. ( → P.413)
• The smart access system with push-but-
ton start or the wireless remote control
does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
•The LED indicator on the key surface
does not turn on.●
To avoid serious deterioration, do not
leave the electronic ke y within 3 ft. (1 m)
of the following electr ical appliances that
produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and
battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless
