SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
 The engine start function of Intelligent Key system makes it possible to start and stop the engine without
using the key, based on the electronic ID verification. The electronic ID verification is performed between
BCM and Intelligent Key when the push-button ignition swit ch is pressed while the Intelligent Key is within
the detection area of inside key antenna.
NOTE:
The driver should carry the Intelligent Key at all times.
 Intelligent Key has 2 IDs [Intelligent Key ID and IVIS (NATS) ID]. It can perform the door lock/unlock opera-
tion and the push-button ignition switch operation when the registered Intelligent Key is carried.
 When Intelligent Key battery is discharged, engine c an be started by operating push-button ignition switch
after contacting Intelligent Key backside to push-button igni tion switch. At that time, the IVIS (NATS) ID veri-
fication is performed.

 Up to 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered (Includi ng the standard Intelligent Key) upon request from the cus-
tomer.
NOTE:
Refer to DLK-18, "
INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM : System Description" for any functions other than engine
start function of Intelligent Key system.
PRECAUTIONS FOR INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM
The transponder [the chip for IVIS (NATS) ID verification] is integrated into the Intelligent Key. (For the
conventional models, it is integrated into the mech anical key.) Therefore, ID verification cannot be per-
formed by mechanical key only.
In that case, the IVIS (NATS) ID verification can be performed when Intelligent Key backside is con-
tacted to push-button ignition switch. If verification result is OK, engine can be started.
OPERATION WHEN INTELLIGENT KEY IS CARRIED
1. When the push-button ignition switch is pressed, the BCM activates the inside key antenna and transmits
the request signal to the Intelligent Key.
2. The Intelligent Key receives the request signal and transmits the Intelligent Key ID signal to the BCM.
3. BCM receives the Intelligent Key ID signal via remote keyless entry receiver and verifies it with the regis-
tered ID.
4. BCM transmits the unlock signal to steering lock unit and IPDM E/R if the verification results are OK.
5. IPDM E/R turns the steering lock relay ON and supplies power supply to the steering lock unit.
6. The steering lock releases.
7. BCM transmits the power supply stop signal to IPDM E/R when detecting that the steering lock is in the
unlock condition.
8. IPDM E/R turns the steering lock relay OFF and stops power supply to the steering lock unit.
9. BCM turns ACC relay ON and transmits the ignition power supply ON signal to IPDM E/R.
10. IPDM E/R turns the ignition relay ON and starts the ignition power supply.
11. BCM detects that the selector lever position and brake pedal operating condition.
12. BCM transmits the starter request signal to IPDM E/R and turns the starter relay in IPDM E/R ON if BCM
judges that the engine start condition* is satisfied.
13. IPDM E/R turns the starter control relay ON when receiving the starter request signal.
14. Power supply is supplied through the starter relay and the starter control relay to operate the starter motor. CAUTION:
If a malfunction is detected in the Intelligent Key system, the “KEY” warning lamp in the combina-
tion meter illuminates. At that time, the engine cannot be started.
15. When BCM receives feedback signal from ECM indicati ng that the engine is started, the BCM transmits a
stop signal to IPDM E/R and stops cranking by turning OFF the starter motor relay. (If engine start is
unsuccessful, cranking stops automatically within 5 seconds.)
CAUTION:
When the Intelligent Key is carried outside of th e vehicle (inside key antenna detection area) while
the power supply is in the ACC or ON position, even if the engine start condition* is satisfied, the
engine cannot be started.
*: For the engine start condition, refer to “POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON
IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION”.
OPERATION RANGE
Engine can be started when Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle. However, sometimes engine may not start
when Intelligent Key is on instrument panel or in glove box.
ENGINE START OPERATION WHEN INTELLIGENT KEY IS CONTACTED TO PUSH-BUTTON IG-
NITION SWITCH
When Intelligent Key battery is discharged, the IVIS (NATS) ID verification between transponder in Intelligent
Key and BCM is performed when Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch. If the
verification result is OK, engine can be started.

PRECAUTIONS FOR KEY REGISTRATION
 The ID registration is a procedure that erases the cu
rrent IVIS (NATS) ID once, and then reregisters a new
ID. Therefore before starting the registration operation, collect all registered Intelligent Keys from the cus-
tomer.
 When registering the Intelligent Key, perform only one procedure to simultaneously register both ID [IVIS
(NATS) ID and Intelligent Key ID].
SECURITY INDICATOR LAMP
 Warns that the vehicle is equipped with IVIS (NATS).
 Security indicator lamp always blinks when the pow er supply position is any position other than ON.
NOTE:
Because security indicator lamp is highly efficient, the battery is barely affected.
ENGINE START OPERATION WHEN INTELLIGENT KEY IS CONTACTED TO PUSH-BUTTON IG-
NITION SWITCH
1. When brake pedal is depressed while selector leve r is in the P position, BCM activates NATS antenna
amp. that is located behind push-button ignition switch.
2. When Intelligent Key (transponder built-in) backsi de is contacted to push-button ignition switch, BCM
starts IVIS (NATS) ID verification between BCM and Intelligent Key (transponder built-in) via NATS
antenna amp.
3. When the IVIS (NATS) ID verification result is OK, buzzer in combination meter sounds and BCM trans-
mits the result to ECM.
4. When push-button ignition switch is pressed, BCM transmits steering unlock signal to steering lock unit
and IPDM E/R.
5. IPDM E/R turns steering lock relay ON and supplies power supply to the steering lock unit.
6. The steering lock is released.
7. BCM transmits the power supply stop signal to IPDM E/R when detecting that the steering lock is in the
unlock position.
8. IPDM E/R turns steering lock relay OFF and stops power supply to the steering lock unit.
9. BCM turns ACC relay ON and transmits ignition power supply ON signal to IPDM E/R.
10. IPDM E/R turns the ignition relay ON and starts the ignition power supply.
11. BCM detects that the selector lever position is P or N.
12. BCM transmits starter request signal to IPDM E/R and turns the starter relay in IPDM E/R ON if BCM judges that the engine start condition* is satisfied.
13. IPDM E/R turns the starter control relay ON when receiving the starter request signal.
14. Power supply is supplied through the starter relay and the starter control relay to operate the starter motor.
15. When BCM receives feedback signal from ECM indica ting that the engine is started, BCM transmits a
stop signal to IPDM E/R and stops cranking by turning off the starter motor relay. (If engine start is unsuc-
cessful, cranking stops automatically within 5 seconds.)
*: For the engine start condition, refer to “POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON
IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION” below.
POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERA-
TION
