Operation of each component
Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses weak radio waves. In the following situa-
tions, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control
and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping: P. 551)
When the electronic key battery is depleted
Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication devices
When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that
emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)

Driving
Cleaning the DPF catalytic converter
Cleaning the DPF catalytic converter is performed as necessary in
accordance with driving conditions.
Equipment characteristics
The DPF system has the following characteristics:
Idle speed increases during cleaning
The smell of the exhaust gas changes
When starting the engine, white-colored steam (water vapor)
may be expelled during cleaning
Acceleration performance may degrade during cleaning
Replacing the engine oil
P. 409
Diesel particulate filter system (diesel
engine only)
When the deposit collected by the filter reaches a predetermined
amount, it is automatically cleaned.
CAUTION
Exhaust pipe
Do not touch the exhaust pipe during cleaning, as the exhaust pipe and
exhaust gases will become particularly hot. Also, make sure that there are
no people or flammable materials near the exhaust pipe while the vehicle is
stopped.
Failure to do so may cause injury by burning or a fire.

2784-5. Using the driving support systems
Auris Touring Sports_EE (OM12G12E)
