Controls
Low Smart Entry Remote Signal Strength
The vehicle transmits radio waves to loca te the smart entry remote when locking/
unlocking the doors, opening the hatch, or to start the engine.
In the following cases, locking/unlocking th e doors or opening the hatch or starting
the engine may be inhibited or operation may be unstable:
• Strong radio waves are being transmitted by nearby equipment.
• You are carrying the smart entry remo te together with telecommunications
equipment, notebook computers, mo bile phones, or wireless machines.
• A metallic object is touching or covering the smart entry remote.1Low Smart Entry Remote Signal Strength
Communication between the smart entry remote and
the vehicle consumes the smart entry remote’s
battery.
Battery life is about two years, but this varies
depending on regularity of use.
The battery is consumed whenever the smart entry
remote is receivi ng strong radio wave s. Avoid placing
it near electrical appliances such as televisions and
personal computers.
