Vehicles with a smart entry &  
start system 
Press and hold the switch.
■Trunk grip
Using the trunk grip, pull down the  
trunk lid without applying sideways 
force and push the trunk lid down 
from the outside to close it.
■Trunk light
●The trunk light turns on when the trunk  
is opened.
●If the trunk light is left on when the  
engine switch is turned off, the light  
will go off automatically after 20 min- utes.
■Function to prevent the trunk being  
locked with the electronic key 
inside (vehicles with a smart entry  & start system)
●When all doors are locked, closing the trunk lid with the electronic key left  
inside the trunk will sound an alarm.
In this case, the trunk lid can be  opened pressing the trunk release  
button on the trunk lid.
●If the spare electronic key is put in the 
trunk with all the doors locked, the key 
confinement prevention function is  activated so the trunk can be opened.  
In order to prevent theft, take all elec-
tronic keys with you when leaving the  vehicle.
●If the electronic key is put in the trunk with all the doors  locked, the key may  
not be detected depending on the 
location of the key and the surround- ing radio wave conditions. In this  
case, the key confinement prevention 
function cannot be activated, causing  the doors to lock when the trunk is  
closed. Make sure  to check where the  
key is before closing the trunk.
●The key confinement prevention func-
tion cannot be activated if any one of  the doors is unlocked. In this case,  
open the trunk using the trunk opener.
■If the smart entry & start system (if 
equipped)  or the wireless remote  control does not operate properly 
Replace the key battery with a new one  
if it is depleted. ( P.449)

( P.538) 

1243-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
●Touching the door lock or unlock sen- 
sor while wearing gloves may prevent  lock or unlock operation.
●On some models: 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 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.122)
●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.538)
●Setting the electronic key to bat- 
tery-saving mode helps to reduce key  battery depletion. ( P.122)
■To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic key  when operating th e system. Do not  
get the electronic key too close to the 
vehicle when operating the system  from the outside of the vehicle. 
Depending on the position and holding  condition of the electronic key, the key  
may not be detected correctly and the 
system may not operate properly. (The  alarm may go off accidentally, or the  
door lock prevention function may not 
operate.)
●Do not leave the electronic key inside 
the trunk. The key confinement prevention func- 
tion may not operate, depending on 
the location of the key (the inside  edge of the trunk), conditions (inside a  
metal bag, close to metallic objects) 
and the radio waves in the surround- ing area. ( P.120)
