Note for electronic key operation
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 conditions of the electronic key, the key may not be detected cor-
rectly and the system may not operate properly. (The alarm may go off
accidentally, or the door lock prevention may not function.)
Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection
areas), the system may not operate properly in the following cases.
• When locking or unlocking the doors, the electronic key is too close to
a door window or door handle, near the ground, or in a high place.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, interior floor, or in a door
pocket.
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
reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin
and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the
electronic key inside the vehicle.
Special note for smart entry & start system
When the electronic key is in the operating range, anyone can lock and
unlock the doors even without having the electronic key. However, the
unlocking operation will not be active at a door that has not detected the
electronic key.
When the electronic key is in the operating range and the door handles
get soaked with water due to car washing or heavy rain, the doors may
be locked or unlocked. If the doors are unlocked, the doors will automati-
cally be locked again when no door operations occur in approximately 30
seconds.
If the electronic key is inside or near the vehicle and if the doors are
locked using the wireless remote control, the doors may not be unlocked
with the smart entry & start system. In this case, unlock the doors using
the wireless remote control.
