ud, etc. Clean
the lock sensor and attempt to
operate it again.
●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 befo re 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.
●Fingernails may scrape against
the door during operation of the
door handle. Be careful not to
injure fingernails or damage the
surface of the door.
■When the vehicle is not driven
for extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do
not leave the electronic key within
6 ft. (2 m) of the vehicle.
●The smart key system can be
deactivated in advance. ( P.463)
●Setting the electronic key to bat-
tery-saving mode helps to reduce
key battery depletion. ( P.130)
