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 ra dio 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 possible 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.

■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.320)
However, do not touch the engine switch
while driving except in an emergency.
Turning the engine off 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.

●If the operation conditions ( P.182) are
no longer met while the lane centering
function is operating, the steering wheel
may vibrate and the buzzer may sound to
indicate that the function has been tem-
porarily canceled. However, if the “Alert”
customization setting is set to , the
system will notify the driver by vibrating
the steering wheel instead of sounding
the buzzer.
■Steering assist function/lane centering

●Depending on the vehicle speed, lane
departure situation, road conditions, etc.,
the driver may not feel the function is
operating or the function may not oper-
ate at all.
●The steering control of the function is
overridden by the driver’s steering wheel
operation.
●Do not attempt to test the operation of
the steering assist function.

●The warning buzzer may be difficult to
hear due to external noise, audio play-
back, etc. Also, it may be difficult to feel
steering wheel vibrations due to the road
conditions, etc.
●If the edge of the course* is not clear or
straight, the lane departure alert function
may not operate.
●It may not be possible for the system to
determine if there is a danger of a colli-
sion with a vehicle in an adjacent lane.
●Do not attempt to test the operation of
the lane departure alert function.

tion is temporarily canceled. This warning
also operates in the same way when the
driver continuously operates the steering
wheel only a small amount.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert
type is set to .
●When the system determines that the
vehicle may deviate from the lane while
driving around a curve while the lane
centering function is operating.
Depending on the vehicle condition and
road conditions, the warning may not

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
