left slightly open, the back door

closer will automatically close it to

the fully closed position. It takes
several seconds before the back

door closer begins to operate. Be

careful not to catch fingers or any-
thing else in the back door, as this

is started during automatic opera-
tion

●

If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy
object is attached to the back door,

it may suddenly shut again after

being opened, causing someone’s

sounded.
Additionally, when the power back

door is fully closed and locked, opera-

tion signals will indicate that all of the
doors have been locked.
Before leaving the vehicle, make sure

that the operation signals have oper-
ated and that all of the doors are

locked.

and engine immobilizer system from

operating properly. (Ways of coping:



P.437)

●

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 gen-

erates strong radio waves or electrical

noise

●

When carrying a portable radio, cellu-

lar 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 digi-

tal assistants (PDAs)

• Digital audio players

• Portable game systems

●

If window tint with a metallic content or

metallic objects are attached to the

rear window

●

When the electronic key is placed

near a battery charger or electronic
devices

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 on the instru-

ment panel, luggage cover or floor, or

in the door pockets or glove box when

Before dri

ving

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 elec-

tronic key inside the vehicle.

●

As long as the electronic key is within

the effective range, the doors may be

locked or unlocked by anyone. How-
ever, only the doors detecting the

electronic 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 30 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 pos-
sibility that the door may not be

unlocked by the entry function. (Use

the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)

●

Touching the door lock or unlock sen-
sor while wearing gloves may prevent

lock or unlock operation.

●

When the lock operation is performed

using the lock sensor, recognition sig-

nals will be shown up to two consecu-
tive times. After this, no recognition

signals will be given.

●

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 2

m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi-

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

• Set the electronic key to battery-sav-

ing mode to disable the smart entry &
start system. (



P.137)

●

If the electronic key is inside the vehi-
cle 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 prop-

erly if it comes into contact with ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor

WARNING

■

When adjusting the seat position

●

Take care when adjusting the seat

position to ensure that other pas-

sengers are not injured by the mov-
ing 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.

●

Make sure to leave enough space
around the feet so they do not get

stuck.

■

Seat adjustment

●

Be careful that the seat does not hit

passengers or luggage.

●

To reduce the risk of sliding under

the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than neces-

sary.

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 unex-

pectedly move and cause the driver
to lose control of the vehicle.

●

After adjusting the seat, make sure
that the seat is locked in position.

NOTICE

When adjusting a front seat

When adjusting a front seat, make
sure that the head restraint does not
