the key out.
After using the mechanical key,
store it in the electronic key. Carry
the mechanical key together with

erly, you will need the mechanical
key. (P. 525)
When required to leave a key to the vehicle with a parking attendant

Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. In the
event that a key (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or mechanical

When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not
press any buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you
are carrying an electronic key in your bag etc, ensure that the buttons are
not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the elec-
tronic key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the
aircraft.

the following problems occurs, it is assumed that the key battery has
been depleted. Replace it with a new battery.
• The smart entry & start system or wireless remote control does not
work

• Lamps
• Induction cookers

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 door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the
electronic key inside the vehicle.
Special note for smart entry & start system
When the electronic key is in the operating range, anyone can lock and
unlock the doors even without having the electronic key. However, the
unlocking operation will not be active at a door that has not detected the
electronic key.
When the electronic key is in the operating range and the door handles
get soaked with water due to car washing or heavy rain, the doors may
be locked or unlocked. If the doors are unlocked, the doors will automati-
cally be locked again when no door operations occur in approximately 30
seconds.
If the electronic key is inside or near the vehicle and if the doors are
locked using the wireless remote control, the doors may not be unlocked
with the smart entry & start system. In this case, unlock the doors using
the wireless remote control.
Note for door locking operation
When touching a lock sensor to lock the doors while wearing gloves, the
response may be slow or the doors may not be locked. In this case,
touch the lock sensor without wearing a glove.
When door handles get wet while washing the vehicle with the electronic
key on your person, the doors may be locked and unlocked repeatedly. In
this case, keep the electronic key 2 m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi-
cle while washing (pay attention to key theft).
When the electronic key is inside the vehicle and door handles get wet
due to a car wash, a warning message stating that the key is in the cabin
may appear on the multi-information display, interior and exterior alarms
may sound. In this case, lock the doors to stop the alarms.
A lock sensor covered with ice, snow or mud may not work properly. In
this case, remove the ice, snow or mud from the lock sensor surface and
then touch the sensor again, or unlock the doors using the lock sensor
located on the lower edge of the door handle.
