warning
When either of the conditions described
below is met, the system issues a
REMOTE CONTROLLER OUTSIDE warn-
ing by sounding the interior and exterior
buzzers. At the same time, the immobi-
lizer/keyless push start system warning
light comes on and the master warning
indicator light blinks.
• Any door is opened and then closed
while the remote controller is not inside
the vehicle and the engine is running or
the ignition mode has been changed to
“ACC” or “ON” by pressing the engine
switch.
• The remote controller is not inside the
vehicle when you attempt to start the

(1) Immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light (blinks)
(2) Master warning indicator light (blinks)
NOTE:
• If the warning is given, locate the remote
controller as soon as possible.
• Any attempt to start the engine will fail
while the warning is active. The mes-
sage appearing on the information dis-
play in the instrument cluster will also
indicate this condition. Refer to “Informa-
tion display” in “BEFORE DRIVING” sec-
tion for details.
• Normally, the immobilizer/keyless push
start system warning light should go out
and the master warning indicator light
should stop blinking shortly after the
remote controller is brought back inside
the vehicle. If they remain lit and blinking,
change the ignition mode to “LOCK” (OFF)
by pressing the engine switch and then
perform the engine starting operation.
Refer to “Starting engine (vehicle with key-
less push start system)” in this section.
• Always keep the remote controller with
you as the driver.
