Wireless remote control Battery-Saving Function Keys Battery-saving function Electronic key Battery-saving function Battery-saving function The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the electronic key battery and the 12-volt battery from being discharged while the vehicle is not in operation for a long time. In the following situations, the smart key system may take some time to unlock the doors. The electronic key has been left in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of the outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer. The smart key system has not been used for 5 days or longer. If the smart key system has not been used for 14 days or longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at any doors except the driver’s door. In this case, take hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote control or the mechanical key, to unlock the doors. Turning an electronic key to battery-saving mode When battery-saving mode is set, battery depletion is minimized by stopping the electronic key from receiving radio waves. Press twice while pressing and holding . Confirm that the electronic key indicator flashes 4 times. While the battery-saving mode is set, the smart key system cannot be used. To cancel the function, press any of the electronic key buttons. Electronic keys that will not be used for long periods of time can be set to the battery-saving mode in advance. Conditions affecting operation The smart key system uses weak radio waves. In the following situations, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be affected, preventing the smart key system, wireless remote control and immobilizer system from operating properly. (Ways of coping: If the electronic key does not operate properly) When the electronic key battery is depleted Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large display, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical noise When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wireless communication device When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following metallic objects Cards to which aluminum foil is attached Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside Metallic wallets or bags Coins Hand warmers made of metal Media such as CDs and DVDs When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that emit radio waves Another electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs) Digital audio players Portable game systems If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the rear window When the electronic key is placed near a battery charger or electronic devices When the vehicle is parked in a pay parking spot where radio waves are emitted. Note for the entry function 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 center of the rear bumper. The electronic key is on the instrument panel, or floor, or in the door pockets or glove box when the hybrid system is started or power switch modes are changed. Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the doors will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle. 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. Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start the hybrid system if the electronic key is near the window. The doors may unlock or lock 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 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.) 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.) Touching the door lock sensor while wearing gloves may delay or prevent lock operation. When the lock operation is performed using the lock sensor, recognition 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 this case, follow the following correction procedures to wash the vehicle: Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the vehicle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.) Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key system. (Turning an electronic key to battery-saving mode) 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 vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock all the doors. The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again. A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent 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. If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly longer to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped. 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. The smart key system can be deactivated in advance. Setting the electronic key to battery-saving mode helps to reduce key battery depletion. (Turning an electronic key to battery-saving mode) 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 vehicle. Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The alarm may go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention function may not operate.)
