UNLOCKING THE DOOR(S) WITH
SMART FUNCTION
The smart entry and start system can
be used to unlock the door(s) without
being inserted into the door keyhole.
When you get close to your vehicle (about
1 m (3 ft.) from each outside front door
handle), and are carrying the smart key,
the electronic code emitted from the key
is automatically checked to determine if it
corresponds to the registered ID code for
the vehicle. When you take hold of the
side back of the outside door handle sur-
face, it will unlock. At this time, two
beeps sound and the turn signal lights
flash twice.
When you push and hold down the back
door opener switch, carrying the smart
key, the ID code is checked in the same
way as in the front door case. And all the
doors will unlock. At this time, two beeps
sound and the turn signal lights flash
twice.
When you get close to your vehicle (about
1 m or 3 ft. from either front door), carry-
ing the smart key or unlock the back door
using smart key function, the interior light
comes on for 15 seconds if the interior
light switch is in the “DOOR” position.
However, the interior lights go out when
you push the power door lock switch in
the lock position or press the “POWER”
switch once or twice from the off setting
to select the “ACC” or “IG- ON” mode
without depressing the brake pedal. For
further information, see “Interior lights” on
page 115.
You have 30 seconds to open a door after
operating the smart unlocking function. If
a door is not opened by then, all the
doors will be automatically locked again.
INFORMATION
The rear doors are not equipped
with smart function.
When unlocking the door(s), be sure
to take hold of the back side of the
outside door handle firmly as
shown in the illustration. Taking
hold of the handle with a gloved
hand might cause a delay in unlock-
ing.
