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 on the instrument panel, luggage room, 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 recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the
door 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
●
unlocked or locked by anyone. However, only the doors detecting the elec-
tronic 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 if a large amount of water splashes on the door han-
●
dle, 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
30 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 or unlock sensor while wearing gloves may delay or
●
prevent lock or unlock operation.
