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 on the instrument panel, in the auxiliary box, on
the floor or in the glove box when the EV system is started or
"POWER" 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.
●
Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to
start the EV system if the electronic key is near the window.
●
The doors may unlock if a large amount of water splashes on the door
handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash. (The doors will automatically
be locked after approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened
and closed.)
●
Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
●
If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the elec-
tronic 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.)
