Before driving
VENZA_OM_OM73030U_(U) ● 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 automatically be locked after
approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
● If the key is kept near the vehicle while it is being washed, water applied
to a door handle may cause the door to lock and unlock repeatedly. In
this event, place the key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more from the vehicle,
taking care not to lose the key.
● If the key is inside the vehicle while it is being washed, water applied to a
door handle may cause a buzzer to sound. In this event, locking all doors
will cause the buzzer to stop sounding.
● It may not be possible to lock the doors if the sensor area is covered by
mud, ice, snow etc. In this event, try locking again after cleaning the
area, or lock by touching the sensor area on the underside of the door
handle.
● Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock or lock
the door.
● If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the elec-
tronic key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not
be unlocked by the smart key system. (Use the wireless remote control to
unlock the doors.)
● A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle operation may
prevent the doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door han-
dle to the original position and check that the doors unlock before pulling
the door handle.
