■To prevent an accident
Ensure that both side doors are prop-
erly closed while driving the vehicle. Failure to do so may result in a door
opening and an occupant being
thrown out of the vehicle, resulting in death or serious injury.
■When opening or closing a door
Check the surroundings of the vehicle
such as whether the vehicle is on an
incline, whether there is enough space for a door to open and whether
a strong wind is blowing. When open-
ing or closing the door, hold the door handle tightly to prepare for any
unpredictable movement.
■Side window open/close function
linked to door operation
Do not hold the upper edge of the side window when you close the door.

■Effective range (areas within which
the electronic key is detected)
When locking or unlocking the
doors
The system can be operated when the
electronic key is within about 0.4 0.8
m (1.3 2.6 ft.) of an outside door han-
dle. (Only the doors detecting the key
can be operated.)
When opening the trunk
The system can be operated when the
electronic key is within about 0.4 0.8
m (1.3 2.6 ft.) of the trunk release but-

The system can be operated when the
electronic key is inside the vehicle.
■Alarms and warning messages
An alarm sounds and warning mes- sages are displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display to protect against
unexpected accidents or theft of the vehicle resulting from erroneous opera-
tion. When a warning message is dis-
played, take appropriate measures based on the displayed message.

When only an alarm sounds, circum- stances and correction procedures are
as follows.
●When an exterior alarm sounds once
for 5 seconds
●When an exterior alarm sounds once
for 2 seconds
●When an interior alarm sounds contin-
uously
■Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be acti- vated in order to prevent the electronic
key battery and the vehicle battery from
being discharged while the vehicle is not
in operation for a long time.
●In the following situations, the smart
entry & start system may take some time to unlock the doors.
• The electronic key has been left within
approximately 2 m (6 ft.) of the outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.

Before driving
• The smart entry & start system has
not been used for 5 days or longer.
●If the smart entry & start system has
not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at the
passenger door. In this case, take
hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote control or
mechanical key, to unlock the doors.
■Electronic Key Battery-Saving
Function
When battery-saving mode is set, bat-
tery depletion is minimized by stopping
the electronic key from receiving radio waves.
Press twice while pressing and
holding . Confirm that the electronic
key indicator flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set,
the smart entry & start system cannot be
used. To cancel the function, press any
of the electronic key buttons.
■Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses
weak radio waves. In the following situa- tions, the communication between the
electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry &
start system, wireless remote control and engine immobilizer system from
operating properly. (Ways of coping:
P.357)
●When the electronic key battery is
depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio station, large dis- play, airport or other facility that gen-
erates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
●When carrying a portable radio, cellu-
lar phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication device
●When the electronic key is in contact
with, or is covered by the following metallic 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 wirele ss keys (that emit
radio waves) are being used nearby
●When carrying the electronic key
together with the following devices that emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a
wireless key that emits radio waves • Personal computers or personal digi-
tal assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players • Portable game systems
●If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the
rear window
●When the electronic key is placed
near a battery charger or electronic
devices
■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within
the effective range (detection areas), the system may not operate properly
in the following cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the window 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
unlocked. • The electronic key is on the instru-
ment panel, rear package tray or floor,
or in the door pockets or glove box when the engine is started or engine
1123-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
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 doors 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.
●Vehicles without a double locking sys-
tem: When the lock operation is per-
formed using the lock sensor, recognition signals will be shown up to
three 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 this 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. 1 1 1 )
●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
both side 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.
●Unlocking the vehicle may take more
time if another electronic key is within the effective range.
■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. 1 1 3 )
●Setting the electronic key to bat-
tery-saving mode helps to reduce key battery depletion. ( P. 1 1 1 )
■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
