After using the mechanical key, store it
in the electronic key. Carry the mechan-
ical key together with the electronic key.
If the electronic key battery is depleted

tons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying an electronic
key in your bag etc., ensure
that the buttons are not likely to be pressed accidentally.

tronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when necessary. ( P. 492)
• The smart access system with push-button start or the wireless remote control does
not operate.
