The warning systems switch is used to turn
on and off the warning systems (Forward
Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) and Blind Spot Warning
(BSW) systems) that are activated using
the settings menu on the center display.
When the warning systems switch is turned
off, the indicator
*1on the switch is off.
The indicator will also be off if all of the
warning systems are deactivated using the
settings menu.
The FCW system will sound a warning
chime and the vehicle ahead detection
indicator light blinks to alert the driver if
the vehicle is traveling close to the vehicle ahead. (See
“Forward Collision Warning
(FCW) system” in the“5. Starting and
driving” section.)
The LDW system will sound a warning
chime and blink the lane departure warn-
ing light (orange) to alert the driver if the
vehicle is traveling close to either the left
or the right of a traveling lane with
detectable lane markers. (See “Lane De-
parture Warning (LDW) system/Lane De-
parture Prevention (LDP) system” in the“5.
Starting and driving” section.)
The BSW system will turn on the BSW/
Blind Spot Intervention (BSI) indicator
lights, located next to the outside mirrors,
if the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone. If the turn signal is
activated in the direction of the detected
vehicle, a chime sounds twice and the
BSW/BSI indicator light will flash. (See
“Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system/Blind
Spot InterventionTM(BSI) system” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.)

When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or strong radio waves are present
near the operating location, the Intelligent
Key system’s operating range becomes
narrower, and the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.
The operating range is within 31.50 in (80
cm) from each request switch
*1.
If the Intelligent Key is too close to the door
glass, handle or rear bumper the request
switches may not function.
When the Intelligent Key is within the
operating range, it is possible for anyone
who does not carry the Intelligent Key to
push the request switch to lock/unlock the
doors and open the trunk lid.
SPA2407
DOOR LOCKS/UNLOCKS PRECAU-
TION
. Do not push the door handle request
switch with the Intelligent Key held in
your hand as illustrated. The close
distance to the door handle will cause
the Intelligent Key system to have
difficulty recognizing that the Intelli-
gent Key is outside the vehicle.
. After locking with the door handle
request switch, verify the doors are
securely locked by testing them.
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from
being left inside the vehicle or the trunk, make sure you carry the key with
you and then lock the doors or the
trunk.
. Do not pull the door handle before
pushing the door handle request
switch. The door will be unlocked but
will not open. Release the door handle
once and pull it again to open the door.
. The Intelligent Key system (opening/
closing doors with the door handle
request switch) can be set to remain
inactive. (See “Vehicle information and
settings” in the“4. Monitor, climate,
audio, phone and voice recognition
systems” section.)

Cancel or activate entry/exit func-
tion
The selector lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The indicator lights on the memory
switches (1 and 2) will blink once when
the function is canceled, and the indicator
lights will blink twice when the function is
activated. Note that the indicator lights
may illuminate after 5 seconds while
holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to
a stored memory position. Keep the SET
switch pressed for more than 10 seconds
to turn on or off the entry/exit function.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the“Lift Steering
Wheel on Exit” key or“Slide Driver Seat
Back on Exit” key is turned to ON or OFF in
the “Comfort settings” settings. (See“Ve-
hicle information and settings” in the“4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systems” section.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if
the fuse opens, the entry/exit function will
not work though this function was set on
before. In such a case, after connecting the
battery or replacing with a new fuse, open
and close the driver’s door more than two
times after the ignition switch is turned
from the ON position to the LOCK position.
The entry/exit function will be activated.
SPA2792
SEAT SYNCHRONIZATION FUNCTION
The seat synchronization function automa-
tically adjusts the positions of the steering
wheel and outside mirrors when the seat is
adjusted using the power seat switches.
However, the steering wheel and outside
mirrors will not move if the seat is adjusted
over the maximum thresholds. The system
considers that the steering wheel and
outside mirror adjustments are not neces-
sary because the seat may not be adjusted
for the driving position. Note that the
function is set to disabled as the factory
default setting.
