3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
Before driving
• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to the center of the rear bumper when the trunk is
opened. • The electronic key is on the instrument panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the
door pockets or glove box when the engine is started or engine switch modes are
changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on top of
the instrument panel or near the door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave reception
conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the doors will become lockable from the outside,
possibly trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be locked or unlocked by anyone. However, only
the doors detecting the electronic key can be used to unlock the vehicle.
●Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start the engine if the electronic
key is near the window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a large amount of water splashes on the door handle, such as in the rain or in a car
wash, when the electronic key is within the effective range. (The doors will auto- matically be locked after approximately
30 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that
the door may not be unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock the doors.)
●If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective
range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this case, follow the follow-ing correction procedures to wash the
vehicle: • Place the electronic key in a location 2 m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehicle.
(Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)• Set the electronic key to battery-saving
mode to disable the smart entry & start system. ( P.124)
●If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet during a car wash, a message may be shown on
the multi-information display and a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock both side doors.
●If an outside door handle is not retracted during a car wash, a door may be opened
or an outside door handle may be dam- aged. Make sure that the outside door handles are retracted before using the
car wash.
●A sudden handle operation or a handle
operation immediately after entering the effective range may prevent the doors from being unlocked. Touch the door
unlock sensor and check that the doors are unlocked before pulling the door handle again.
●Unlocking the vehicle may take more time if another electronic key is within the
effective range.
■When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 2 m (6 ft.)
of the vehicle.
●The smart entry & start system can be
deactivated in advance.
■To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic key
when operating the system. Do not get the electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the system from the out-
side of the vehicle. Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The alarm may go off accidentally, or the door
lock prevention function may not oper- ate.)
●Do not leave the electronic key inside the
