Note for the unlocking function

●

Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.

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 access system with push-button start can be deactivated in advance.

not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The alarm may

go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention may not function.)
