■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

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 door
will become lockable from the outside,
possibly trapping the electronic key
inside the vehicle.

effective range, the doors may be locked
or unlocked by anyone.
●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 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 door will automatically be
locked after approximately 60 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

repeatedly. In that 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.
