■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any buttons on the electronic key while inside
the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying an electronic key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed acci-
dentally. Pressing a button may cause the electronic key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the air-
craft.
■Electronic key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the engine
<hybrid system> is stopped.
●As the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the battery will become depleted even if the electronic key is not
used. The following symptoms indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when nec-
essary. ( P.349) • The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper-
ate. • The detection area becomes smaller.• The LED indicator on the key surface
does not turn on.
