Operation of each component
■Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the electronic key bat-
tery and the vehicle battery from being discharged while the vehicle is not in operation
for a long time.
●In the following situations, the smart acce ss system with push-button start may take
some time to unlock the doors.
• The electronic key has been le ft in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of the outside
of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.

tronic key from re ceiving radio waves.
●Electronic keys that will not be used for long periods of time can be set to the battery-
saving mode in advance.
■Conditions affe cting operation
The smart access system with push-button st art uses weak radio waves. In the following
situations, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smar t access system with push-but ton start, wireless remote
control and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping: P. 547)
