Emergency disarming
If you cannot disarm the system using the

is lost, broken or the transmitter battery is
too weak), you can disarm the system
without using the access key/remote
transmitter.
The system can be disarmed if you turn
the ignition switch from the LOCK / OFF
to the ON position with a registered key/
access key.
NOTE
For models with keyless access with
push-button start system , if the ac-
cess key battery is discharged, perform
the procedure described in Switching
power status 9-16. In such a case,
replace the battery immediately. Refer
to Replacing battery of access key
