●A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the original
position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle again.
●If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly longer
to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped.
■When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods

of the vehicle.
●The smart access system with push-button start can be deactivated in advance.

that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when nec-
essary. ( →P. 6 4 2 )
