 If the smartphone battery is
depleted, the smartphone
cannot be used as Digital
Key. If the battery level is low,
be sure to charge the smart-
phone prior to going out.
 The Digital Key system is
related to the smart key sys-
tem. If the smart key system
has been deactivated in the
vehicle customization setting,
the Digital Key will also be
disabled.

for 14 days or more, the Digi-
tal Key will not connect auto-
matically. Therefore, it may
take some time before the
system operates after a door
handle is touched.
 A part of the services may be
stopped for a certain period of
time due to server mainte-
nance. However, registered
Digital Keys can be used
during the maintenance.
 A smartphone with the Digital Key App enabled will be able
