3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
Before driving
• The electronic key is on the instru-
ment panel, luggage cover 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 recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the
door will become lockable from the
outside, possibly trapping the elec- tronic key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. How-
ever, 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 automatically 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 pos-
sibility 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 sen-
sor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation.
●Some models: When the lock opera-
tion is performed using the lock sen- sor, 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 effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow
the following correction procedures to
wash the vehicle: • Place the electronic key in a location 2
m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi-
cle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-sav-
ing mode to disable the smart entry & start system. ( P.138)
●If the electronic key is inside the vehi- cle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be
shown on the multi-information dis- play and a buzzer will sound outside
the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock
all the doors.
●The lock sensor may not work prop-
erly if it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor
and attempt to operate it again.
●A sudden handle operation or a han-
dle operation immediately after enter-
ing the effective range may prevent the doors from being unlocked. Touch
the door unlock sensor and check that
the doors are unlocked before pulling the door handle again.
●If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly
longer to unlock the doors after the
door handle is gripped.
■When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 2 m (6
ft.) of the vehicle.
●The smart entry & start system can be
deactivated in advance. ( P.577)
●Setting the electronic key to bat- tery-saving mode helps to reduce key
battery depletion. ( P.138)

belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen, or your neck may contact
the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the
event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unex-
pectedly move and cause the driver
to lose control of the vehicle.
●After adjusting the seat, make sure
that the seat is locked in position.
