buzzer sounds.
Warning buzzers may sound from inside or/
and outside the vehicle to remind you that the 
smart entry remote is out of the vehicle. If the 
buzzer continues even after the remote is put 
back inside, place it within the system's 
operational range.
■When the power mode is in ON
If the smart entry remote is taken out of the 
vehicle, and the driver’s door is closed, warning 
buzzers sound from both inside and outside the

vehicle, and all the doors are closed, a 
warning buzzer sounds from outside the 
vehicle.
