n Note for the smart key system
l 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 near the ground or in a high place, or too close to
the rear bumper center when the back door is locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, floor or in the glove box
when the engine is started or “ENGINE START STOP” switch modes
are changed.
l As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may
be locked or unlocked by anyone.
l 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.
l 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.)
l Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
l 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 smart key system. (Use the wireless remote control to
unlock the doors.)
l A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle operation may
prevent the doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door han-
dle to the original position and check that the doors unlock before pulling
the door handle.
n When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2
m) of the vehicle.
n Security feature
If a door is not opened within approximately 60 seconds after the vehicle is
unlocked, the security feature automatically locks the vehicle again.
