Smart key system
3-3
3
As the smart key system uses
weak radio waves, the operating
range may be affected by the sur-
rounding environment.
When the battery of the smart key
is discharged, the smart key may
not work or its operating range be-
come very small.
If the smart key is turned off, the
vehicle will not recognize the
smart key even if it is within oper-
ating range.
If the “ON/ ” switch,
“OFF/LOCK” switch, or “ / ”
switch are repeatedly pressed
when the smart key is out of range
or cannot communicate with the
vehicle, all switches will be tempo-
rarily disabled.
Placing the smart key in the front
or rear storage compartment may
block communication between
the smart key and the vehicle. If
the rear trunk or front storage
compartment is locked with the
smart key inside, the smart key
system may be disabled. The
smart key should always carried
on your person.
EWA17952
The smart key should be carried
with you. Do not store it on the
vehicle.
When the smart key is within
operating range, exercise due
care because other people not
carrying the smart key can start
the engine and operate the vehi-
cle.

Handling of the smart key and
mechanical key
Included with the vehicle is one smart
key (with a built-in mechanical key) and
one spare mechanical key with an
identification card. Keep the spare me-
chanical key and card separate from
the smart key. Should you lose or dam-
age the smart key, or when its battery
is discharged, the mechanical key will
serve as a back up. The seat can be
opened, the smart key system identifi-
cation number can be manually input,
and then the vehicle can be operated.
(See page 8-38.) We recommend that
you note down the identification
number in case of emergency.
