Operation of each component
● If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet during a car
wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information display and a buzzer will
sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors.
● The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud, etc.
Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again, or use the lock sensor on the
lower part of the door handle.
● A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the doors from
being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the original position and check
that the doors unlock 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.
● Fingernails may scrape against the door during operation of the door handle. Be care-
ful not to injure fingernails or damage the surface of the door.
■ When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
● To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2 m) of the
vehicle.
● The smart access system with push-button start can be deactivated in advance.
