Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the electronic
key battery and the vehicle battery from being discharged while the vehicle is
not in operation for a long time.

In the following situations, the smart key system may take some time to
unlock the doors.

• The electronic key has been left in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of

the outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.

• The smart key system has not been used for 5 days or longer.

If the smart key system has not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors
cannot be unlocked at any doors except the driver’s door. In this case, take
hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote control or the
mechanical key, to unlock the doors.

Electronic Key Battery-Saving Function
When battery-saving mode is set, battery depletion is minimized by stopping
the electronic key from receiving radio waves.

Press

twice while pressing and

holding

. Confirm that the electronic

key indicator flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set, the
smart key system cannot be used. To
cancel the function, press any of the elec-
tronic key buttons.

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors

Conditions affecting operation
The smart key system uses weak radio waves. In the following situations, the
communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be affected,
preventing the smart key system, wireless remote control and engine immobi-
lizer system from operating properly. (Ways of coping:

→P. 411)

When the electronic key battery is depleted

Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical
noise

When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication device

When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects

• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs

When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby

When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that
emit radio waves

• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems

If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the

Note for the entry function

Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following cases:

• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near

the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or unlocked.

• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to

the rear bumper center when the trunk is opened.

• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, rear package tray or floor,

or in the door pockets or glove box when the engine is started or engine
switch modes are changed.

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 recep-
tion 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.

As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting the elec-
tronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.

Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the electronic key is near the window.

The doors may unlock or lock if a large amount of water splashes on the
door handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash when the electronic key is
within the effective range. (The doors will automatically be locked after
approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)

If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)

116

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors

Note for locking the doors

Touching the door lock sensor while wearing gloves may delay or prevent
lock operation. Remove the gloves and touch the lock sensor again.

If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow the
following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:

• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the

vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key

system. (

P. 113)

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 dis-
play 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.

Fingernails may scrape against the door during operation of the door han-
dle. Be careful not to injure fingernails or damage the surface of the door.

Note for the unlocking function

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 origi-
nal position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle
again.

Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.

If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow the
following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:

• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the

vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key

system. (

P. 113)

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 han-
dle. Be careful 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 key system can be deactivated in advance. (

P. 449)

To operate the system properly

Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. 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 condition of the electronic key, the
key may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate prop-
erly. (The alarm may go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention function
may not operate.)

Do not leave the electronic key inside the luggage compartment.
The key confinement prevention function may not operate, depending on
the location of the key (close to a spare tire, the inside edge of the luggage
compartment), conditions (inside a metal bag, close to metallic objects) and
the radio waves in the surrounding area. (

3-3. Adjusting the seats

Power easy access system (vehicles with driving position memory)
The auto away/return function enables easy access by activating when the
driver attempts to enter or exit the vehicle.

When the engine switch has been turned to IGNITION ON mode or the
driver’s seat belt has been fastened, the driver’s seat will move forward.

When the engine switch has been turned off and the driver’s seat belt has
been unfastened, the driver’s seat will move backward.

Customization
Settings (e.g. driver’s seat movement when exiting the vehicle) can be
changed. (Customizable features:

→P. 449)

WARNING

When adjusting the seat position

Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passen-
gers are not injured by the moving seat.

Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid
injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.

Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an
accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

When adjusting the seat positions
Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not get stuck.
