1-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
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
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 may not func-
tion.)
Note for the entry function
■
Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection
●
areas), the system may not operate properly in the following cases.
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle,
near the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or
unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to
the rear bumper center when the back door is locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, floor or in the glove box
when the engine is started or "ENGINE START STOP" switch modes
are changed.
Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the
●
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave
reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin
and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the
electronic key inside the vehicle.
As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may
●
be locked or unlocked by anyone.
