When bringing a ke y with wireless
remote control func tion onto an air-
craft, make sure you do not press
any buttons on the key while inside
the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying
the key in your bag etc., ensure that
the buttons are not likely to be
pressed accidentally. Pressing a
button may cause the key to emit
radio waves that could interfere with
the operation of the aircraft.

Vehicles without smart key system
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2
years.
●The battery will be come depleted
even if the wireless key is not

indicate that the wireless key bat-
tery may be depleted. Replace the
battery when necessary.
(  P.433)
• The wireless remote control does not operate.

years.
●If the battery bec omes low, an
alarm will sound in the cabin and a
message will be disp layed on the
multi-information display when the

●To reduce key battery depletion
when the electronic key is to not
be used for long periods of time,
set the electronic key to the bat-
tery-saving mode. ( P.157)
●As the electronic key always
receives radio waves, the battery
will become depleted even if the
electronic key is not used. The fol-
lowing symptoms indicate that the
electronic key battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery
