drops, such as when the engine switch

is turned to IGNITION ON mode or

the engine is started during automatic

operation

If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy

object is attached to the power back

door, the power back door may not

operate, causing a malfunction, or the

Battery-saving function

The battery-saving function will be acti-

vated in order to prevent the electronic key

battery and the battery from being dis-

charged while the vehicle is not in operation

for a long time.

In the following situations, the smart

access system with push-button start may

• 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 access system with push-but-

ton start has not been used for 5 days or

longer.

If the smart access system with push-but-

ton start 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 han-

dle, or use the wireless remote control or

the mechanical key, to unlock the doors.

Turning an electronic key to bat-

tery-saving mode

When battery-saving mode is set, battery

depletion is minimized by stopping the elec-

tronic key from receiving radio waves.

Conditions affecting operation

The smart access system with push-button

start, wireless remote control and engine

smart access system with push-button start,

wireless remote control and engine immo-

bilizer system from operating properly.

Note for the entry function

Even when the electronic key is within the

effective range (detection areas), the sys-

tem may not operate properly in the fol-

lowing cases:

• The electronic key is too close to the win-

dow 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 back door is

opened.

• The electronic key is on the instrument

panel, luggage compartment, 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 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.

As long as the electronic key is within the

effective range, the doors may be locked

or unlocked by anyone.

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 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 door 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.)

Touching the door lock sensor while

wearing gloves may delay or prevent lock

operation. Remove the gloves and touch

the lock sensor again.

When the lock operation is performed

using the lock sensor, recognition signals

will be shown up to two consecutive

times. After this, no recognition signals

will be given.

If the door handle becomes wet while the

electronic key is within the effective

range, the door may lock and unlock

repeatedly. In that case, follow the follow-

ing 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 access system

with push-button start. (

P.114)

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.

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

116

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors

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

careful not to injure fingernails or dam-

age 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-but-

ton start can be deactivated in advance.

Setting the electronic key to battery-sav-

ing mode helps to reduce key battery

depletion. (

P.114)

To operate the system properly

Make sure to carry the electronic key when

operating the system. Do not get the elec-

tronic 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 properly. (The alarm may

go off accidentally, or the door lock preven-

tion may not operate.)

If the smart access system with

push-button start does not operate

properly

If the doors cannot be locked or unlocked

and the back door cannot be opened,

perform the following.
