The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years. (The card key battery life is about a year
and a half.)
If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the hybrid sys-
tem stops. (→P. 620)

depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indicate
that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when nec-
essary. (→P. 550)
• The smart access system with push-button start or the wireless remote con-
trol does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.

the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:
• TVs

• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones
