When an electronic ke y is in the operation
range, the Hands Free Power Back Door
may operate unintentiona lly, so be careful in
the following situations.
●When a large amount of water is applied
to the rear bumper, such as when the
vehicle is being washed or in heavy rain
●When dirt is wiped off the rear bumper
●When a small animal or small object, such
as a ball, moves under the rear bumper
●When an object is moved from under the
rear bumper
●If someone is swinging their legs while sit-
ting on the rear bumper
●If the legs or another part of someone’s
body contacts the rear bumper while
passing by the vehicle
●When the vehicle is parked near an elec-
trical noise source which affects the sen-
sitivity of the Hands Free Power Back
Door, such as a pay parking spot, gas sta-
tion, electrically heated road, or fluores-
cent light
●When the vehicle is near a TV tower,
electric power plant, radio station, large
display, airport or other facility that gen-
erates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
●When the vehicle is parked in a place
where objects such as plants are near the
rear bumper
●If luggage, etc. is set near the rear
bumper
●If accessories or a vehicle cover is
installed/removed near the rear bumper

properly, close the back door manually.
■Jam protection function
Sensors are installed in the right and left sides of the power back door. When the
door is automatically closing and the sen-
sors are pushed due to an object being
clamped, etc., the jam protection function
operates.
From that position the door automatically
moves a little in the opposite direction and
then the function stops.

3
Before driving■If “Key Detected in Vehicle” is shown on
the multi-information display
An attempt was made to lock the doors
using the smart access system with push-
button start while the electronic key was still
inside the vehicle. Retrieve the electronic
key from the vehicle and lock the doors
again.
■Battery-saving function
The battery-saving fu nction will be acti-
vated in order to prevent the electronic key
battery and the battery from being dis-
charged while the vehicl e is not in operation
for a long time.
●In the following situations, the smart
access system with pu sh-button start may
take some time to unlock the doors.
• The electronic key has been left in an
area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of the
outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or
longer.
• The smart access system with push-but- ton start has not been used for 5 days or
longer.
●If the smart access system with push-but-
ton start has not been used for 14 days or
longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at
any doors except the driver’s door. In this
case, take hold of the driver’s door han-
dle, or use the wireless remote control or
the mechanical key, to unlock the doors.
■Turning an electronic key to battery-
saving mode
●When battery-saving mode is set, battery
depletion is minimized by stopping the
electronic key from receiving radio
waves.
Press twice while pressing and
holding .
Confirm that the electronic key indicator
flashes 4 times. While the battery-saving
mode is set, the smart access system with
push-button start cannot be used. To cancel

●Electronic keys that will not be used for
long periods of time can be set to the bat-
tery-saving mode in advance.
■Conditions affecting operation

start uses weak radio waves. In the following
situations, the communication between the
electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart access sys-
tem with push-button start, wireless remote
control and engine immobilizer system
from operating properly. (Ways of coping:
