3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
• Set the electronic key to battery-saving
mode to disable the smart access system
with push-button start. (→P.120)
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.
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 6 ft. (2 m)
of the vehicle.
The smart access system with push-but-
ton start can be deactivated in advance.
Setting the electronic key to battery-sav-
ing mode helps to reduce key battery
depletion. (→P.120)
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 vehicle
when operating the system from the out-
side 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 pre-
vention function may not operate.)
Do not leave the electronic key inside the
trunk.
The key confinement prevention function
LS500h_OM_OM50F42U_(U)
may not operate, depending on the loca-
tion of the key (the inside edge of the
Trunk), conditions (inside a metal bag,
close to metallic objects) and the radio
waves in the surrounding area. (→P.116)
