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 30 seconds if the doors
are not opened and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is used
to lock the doors when the electronic key is near the vehicle, there is a pos-sibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock the doors.)
●Touching the door lock or unlock sen-sor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation.
●When the lock operation is performed
using the lock sensor, recognition sig- nals will be shown up to two consecu-tive times. After this, no recognition
signals will be given.
●If the door handle becomes wet while
the electronic key is within the effec- tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow
the following correction procedures to wash the vehicle:• P l ac e t h e e l ec t ro n ic ke y i n a l oc at i o n 2
m (6 ft.) or more away from the vehi- cle. (Take care to ensure that the key
is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-sav- ing mode to disable the smart entry & start system. ( P.153)
●If the electronic key is inside the vehi- cle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information dis-play and a buzzer will sound outside
the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors.
●The lock sensor may not work prop-erly if it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor
and attempt to operate it again.
●A sudden handle operation or a han-
dle operation immediately after enter- ing the effective range may prevent the doors from being unlocked. Touch
the door unlock sensor and check that the doors are unlocked before pulling the door handle again.
●If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly lon-
ger to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped.
■When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 2 m (6
ft.) of the vehicle.
●The smart entry & start system can be
deactivated in advance. ( P.498)
●Setting the electronic key to battery-
saving mode helps to reduce key bat- tery depletion. ( P.153)
■To operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key
when operating the system. Do not get the electronic key too close to the vehi-cle when operating the system from the
outside of the vehicle. Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The alarm may go off accidentally, or the
door lock prevention function may not operate.)
