Operatin
g
ran
g
e of the smart
key system
The operating range of the smart key
system is about 80 cm (31.5 in) from
the main switch.
TIP
As the smart key system uses
weak radio waves, the operating
range may be affected by the sur-
rounding environment.
When the battery of the smart key
is discharged, the smart key may
not work or its operating range
may become very small.
If the smart key is turned off, the
vehicle will not recognize the
smart key even if it is within oper-
ating range. If the smart key sys-
tem does not operate, see page
4-5 and confirm that the smart key
is turned on.
Placing the smart key in the front
or rear storage compartment may
block communication between
the smart key and the vehicle. If
the rear storage compartment is
locked with the smart key inside,
the smart key system may be dis-
abled. The smart key should al-
ways be carried with you.
