Notes for the entry function (vehicles with an entry function)
●
Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following case:
• 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 opened.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, luggage cover (if equipped)
or floor, or in the door pockets, glove box, accessory box of the instru-
ment panel, or in/near the front cup holder when the engine is started or
engine 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 recep-
tion 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.
●
Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the electronic key is near the window.
●
The doors may unlock if a large amount of water splashes on the door han-
dle, such as in the rain or in a car wash when the electronic key is within the
effective range. (The door will automatically be locked after approximately
30 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
● If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)
●
Touching the door lock or unlock sensor while wearing gloves may prevent
lock or unlock operation.
