other key related problems
P.412
■When an electronic key is lost
P.411
■Handling the card key
●If the battery or card key terminals get
wet, the battery may corrode and the

cover and wipe the battery and termi-
nals. (To remove the battery cover,
lightly grasp and pull it.) If the battery is

may bend or damage the key.
●If the battery cover is frequently
removed, the battery cover may
become loose.
●When installing the battery, make sure
to check the direction of the battery.
Installing the battery in the wrong
direction may cause the battery to
deplete rapidly.
●The surface of the card key may be
damaged, or its coating may peel off in
the following situations:
• The card key is ca rried together with
hard objects, such as coins and keys.
• The card key is scraped with a sharp object, such as the tip of a mechanical

The smart access system with push-button
start, wireless remote control and immobi-
lizer system use weak radio waves. In the
following situations, the communication
between the electronic key and the vehicle
may be affected, preventing the smart
access system with push -button start, wire-
less remote control and immobilizer system
from operating properly. (Ways of coping:
P.412)
●When the electronic key battery is
depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio stat ion, large display,
airport or other faci lity that generates
strong radio waves or electrical noise
●When the electronic key is in contact
with, or is covered by the following metal-
lic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil
inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
•Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
●When other wireless ke ys (that emit radio
waves) are being used nearby

pockets or glove box when the hybrid
system is started or power 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.
