Keys and doors
. When the access key is within the
operating range, it is possible for any-
one, even someone who is not carrying
the access key, to operate the keyless
access functions. Note that locking and
unlocking can be operated only by the
door lock/unlock button in the operat-
ing range in which the access key is
detected.
. The keyless access functions may
not operate properly depending on the
status of the access key and the radio
wave conditions around the vehicle. In
such a case, perform the procedure
described in "When access key does
not operate properly".
. It is not possible to lock the doors
and rear gate (trunk) when the access
key is inside the vehicle. However,
depending on the status of the access
key and the environmental conditions,
the access key may be locked inside
the vehicle. Before locking, make sure
that you have the access key.
. If you attempt to lock/unlock the
doors by the door lock/unlock button
or the remote keyless entry system
function while pulling the door handle,
the doors cannot be locked and un-
locked.
. When the battery of the access key
is discharged, or when operating it in a
location with strong radio waves or
noise (e.g., near a radio tower, power
plant, broadcast station or an area
where wireless equipment is used), or
while talking on a cell phone, the
operating ranges may be reduced, or
the keyless access functions may not
operate.
In such a case, perform the procedure
described in "When access key does
not operate properly".
. It is not possible to lock the doors
when one of the doors is open. Close
all of the doors including the rear gate
and lock the doors.
