If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Seat Belt Warning Beep
If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition is switched ON, a beep
sound will be heard for about 6 seconds. If
the driver or the front passenger's seat belt
is not fastened and the vehicle is driven
at a speed faster than about 20 km/h (12
mph), a beep sound will be heard again for
a specifi ed period of time.
NOTE
 y Some models do not have the seat
belt warning function for the front
passenger's seat.
 y Placing heavy items on the front
passenger seat may cause the front
passenger seat belt warning function to
operate depending on the weight of the
item.
 y To allow the front passenger seat
weight sensor to function properly, do
not place and sit on an additional seat
cushion on the front passenger seat.
The sensor may not function properly
because the additional seat cushion
could cause sensor interference.
 y When a small child sits on the front
passenger seat, it is possible that the
warning beep will not operate.
Ignition Not Switched Off (STOP) Warning Beep
If the driver's door is opened while
the ignition is switched to ACC, a
continuous beep sound will be heard to
notify the driver that the ignition has not
been switched off (STOP). Left in this
condition, the keyless entry system will
not operate, the car cannot be locked, and
the battery power will be depleted.
Key Removed from Vehicle Warning Beep
A beep sound will be heard 6 times and
the KEY warning light (red) will fl ash
continuously if the ignition has not been
switched off, all the doors are closed, and
the key is removed from the vehicle. This
is to notify the driver that the key has been
removed from the vehicle and the ignition
has not been switched off.
NOTE
Because the key utilizes low-intensity
radio waves, the Key Removed From
Vehicle Warning may activate if the key is
carried together with a metal object or it
is placed in a poor signal reception area.
Request Switch Inoperable Warning Beep (With the advanced
keyless function)
If the request switch is pressed with a door
open or ajar or the ignition has not been
switched off while the key is being carried,
a beep will be heard for about 2 seconds
to indicate that the doors and the liftgate/
trunk lid cannot be locked.
Key Left-in-luggage Compartment Warning Beep (With the advanced
keyless function)
If the key is left in the trunk with all doors
locked and the trunk lid closed, a beep
sound is heard for about 10 seconds to
remind the driver the key has been left in
the trunk. If this happens, open the trunk
lid by pressing the electric trunk lid opener
and remove the key. A key removed from
the trunk may not function because its
functions may have been temporarily
suspended. To restore the key function,
perform the applicable procedure (page
3-8 ).
