When other wireless key (that  
emits radio waves) is being used  
nearby  
As long as the electronic key is  
within the effective range, the  
doors may be locked or unlocked  
by anyone. However, only the  
doors detecting the electronic key  
can be used to unlock the vehicle.  
When carrying the electronic key  
together with the following devices  
that emit radio waves  
• Portable radio, cellular phone,  
cordless phone or other wireless  
communication devices  
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or  
a wireless key that emits radio  
waves  
• Personal computers or personal  
digital assistants (PDAs)  
• Digital audio players  
• Portable game systems  
Even if the electronic key is not  
inside the vehicle, it may be possi-  
ble to start the engine if the elec-  
tronic 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 when the electronic  
key is within the effective range.  
(The doors will automatically be  
locked after approximately 60 sec-  
onds if the doors are not opened  
and closed.)  
If window tint with a metallic con-

If the wireless remote control is  
used to lock the doors when the  
electronic 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.)  
When parking in a coin-operated  
parking lot (Radio waves used to  
detect vehicles may affect the  
smart key system.)  
Note for the entry function  
Even when the electronic key is  
within the effective range (detec-  
tion areas), the system may not  
operate properly in the following  
cases:  
• The electronic key is too close to  
the window or outside door han-  
dle, near the ground, or in a high  
place when the doors are locked  
or unlocked.  
• The electronic key is on the instru-  
ment panel, luggage cover or  
floor, or in the door pockets or  
glove box when the engine is  
Touching the door lock sensor  
while wearing gloves may delay or  
prevent lock operation. Remove  
the gloves and touch the lock sen-  
sor again.  
When the lock operation is per-  
formed using the lock sensor, rec-  
ognition signals will be shown up  
to two consecutive times. After  
this, no recognition signals will be  
given.  
If the door handle becomes wet  
while the electronic key is within

the effective range, the door may  
lock and unlock repeatedly. In that  
case, follow the following correc-  
tion procedures to wash the vehi-  
cle:  
• Place the electronic key in a loca-  
tion 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from  
the vehicle. (Take care to ensure  
that the key is not stolen.)  
To operate the system properly  
Make sure to carry the electronic  
key when operating the system. Do  
not get the electronic key too close  
to the vehicle when operating the  
system from the outside of the vehi-  
cle.  
Depending on the position and hold-  
ing condition of the electronic key,  
the key may not be detected cor-  
rectly and the system may not oper-  
ate properly. (The alarm may go off  
accidentally, or the door lock pre-  
vention may not operate.)  
• Set the electronic key to battery-  
saving mode to disable the smart  
key system. (P.129)  
If the electronic key is inside the  
vehicle and a door handle  
becomes wet during a car wash, a  
message may be shown on the  
multi-information display and a  
buzzer will sound outside the vehi-  
cle. To turn off the alarm, lock all  
the doors.

vent the doors from being  
unlocked. In this case, return the  
door handle to the original position  
and check that the doors unlock  
before pulling the door handle  
again.

not recline the seat more than  
necessary.  
If the seat is too reclined, the lap  
belt may slide past the hips and

the abdomen, or your neck may  
contact the shoulder belt, increas-  
ing the risk of death or serious  
injury in the event of an accident.  
Adjustments should not be made

unexpectedly move and cause  
the driver to lose control of the  
vehicle.
