or medical electrical equipment, such 
as low-frequency therapy equipment.
■Carrying the electronic key on your 
person
Carry the electronic key 3.9 in. (10 cm) 
or more away from electric appliances 
that are turned on. Radio waves emitted 
from electric applianc es within 3.9 in. (10 
cm) of the electronic key may interfere 
with the key, causing the key to not func-
tion properly.

■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the 
effective range (detection areas), the sys-
tem may not operate properly in the fol-
lowing cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the win- dow or outside door handle, near the 
ground, or in a high place when the doors 
are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or 
in a high place, or too close to the rear 
bumper center when the trunk is opened.
• The electronic key is on the instrument  panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the 
door pockets or glove box when the 
engine is started or engine switch modes 
are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on top of 
the instrument panel  or near the door 
pockets when exiting the vehicle. 
Depending on the radio wave reception  conditions, it may be detected by the 
antenna outside the cabin and the doors 
will become lockable from the outside, 
possibly trapping the electronic key 
inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is within the 
effective range, the doors may be locked 
or unlocked by anyone. However, only 
the doors detecting the electronic key 
can be used to unlock the vehicle.
●Even if the electronic 
key is not inside the 
vehicle, it may be po ssible to start the 
engine if the electronic key is near the 
window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a large 
amount of water splashes on the door 
handle, such as in the rain or in a car 
wash, when the electronic key is within 
the effective range. (The doors will auto-
matically be locked after approximately 
30 seconds if the doors are not opened 
and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is used to 
lock the doors when the electronic key is 
near the vehicle, there is a possibility that 
the door may not be unlocked by the 
entry function. (Use the wireless remote 
control to unlock the doors.)
●Touching the door lock or unlock sensor 
while wearing gloves may prevent lock or 
unlock operation.
●When the lock operation is performed 
using the lock sensor, recognition signals 
will be shown up to two consecutive 
times. After this, no recognition signals 
will be given.
●If the door handle becomes wet while the 
electronic key is within the effective 
range, the door may lock and unlock 
repeatedly. In this case, follow the follow-
ing correction procedures to wash the 
vehicle:
• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft.  (2 m) or more away from the vehicle. 
(Take care to ensure that the key is not 
stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-saving  mode to disable the smart access system 
with push-button start. ( P.100)

■Stopping the engine in an emergency
If you want to stop the engine in an emer-
gency while driving the vehicle, press 
and hold the engine switch for more than 
2 seconds, or press it briefly 3 times or 
more in succession. ( P.328)
However, do not touch the engine switch 
while driving except  in an emergency. 
Turning the engine of f while driving will 
not cause loss of steering or braking con-
trol, but the power assist to these systems 
will be lost. This will make it more difficult 
to steer and brake, so you should pull 
over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is 
safe to do so.
■When parking
Exhaust gases include harmful carbon 
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and 
odorless. Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases 
to enter the vehicle and may lead to an 
accident caused by light-headedness, or 
may lead to death or a serious health 
hazard.
●If the vehicle is in  a poorly ventilated 
area or a closed area, such as a 
garage, stop the engine.
●Do not leave the vehicle with the 
engine running for a long time. If such 
a situation cannot be avoided, park the 
vehicle in an open space and ensure 
that exhaust fumes do not enter the 
vehicle interior.
●Do not leave the engine running in an 
area with snow build-up, or where it is 
snowing. If snowbanks build up around 
the vehicle while the engine is running, 
exhaust gases may collect and enter 
the vehicle.

the vehicle is driving around a curve, warn-
ings will occur earlier than during 
straight-lane driving.
●When the system determines that the 
driver is driving with out holding the steer-
ing wheel while the st eering wheel assist 
of the steering assist function is operat-
ing.
If the driver continues to keep their hands 
off of the steering wheel and the steering 
wheel assist is operating, the buzzer 
sounds and the driver is warned. Each time 
the buzzer sounds, the continuing time of 
the buzzer becomes longer.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert 
type is set to  .
