Note for locking the doors

●
Touching the door lock sensor while wearing gloves may delay or prevent
lock operation. Remove the gloves and touch the lock sensor again.
●
When the lock operation is performed using the lock sensor, recognition
signals will be shown up to two consecutive times. After this, no recogni-
tion signals will be given.
●
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the
effective range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key
in a position 2 m (6 ft.) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehi-
cle is being washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
●
If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information
display and a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm,
lock all the doors.
●
The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again, or
use the lock sensor on the lower part of the door handle.
●
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.

Note for the unlocking function

●
Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
●
A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the
original position and check that the doors unlock before 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.
■

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. 632)
