receives radio waves, the battery  
will become depleted even if the  
electronic key is not used. The fol-  
lowing symptoms indicate that the  
electronic key battery may be  
depleted. Replace the battery  
when necessary.

not press any buttons on the elec-  
tronic key while inside the aircraft  
cabin. If you are carrying an elec-  
tronic key in your bag, etc., ensure

with the key, causing the key to  
not function properly.  
This message will be displayed  
each time the driver’s door is  
opened when the doors are  
unlocked from the outside for  
approximately 10 days after a new  
electronic key has been registered.

in death or serious injury.  
■Rear seat reminder function  
As the first reminder so as not to for-  
get luggage, etc. in the rear seat,  
when the engine switch is turned off  
after any of the following conditions  
are met, a buzzer will sound and a

multi-information display for approx-  
imately 6 seconds.  
●Ensure that all doors are prop-  
erly closed and locked.  
●Do not pull the inside handle of

ing the door, hold the door handle  
tightly to prepare for any unpre-  
dictable movement.

vicinity of the vehicle for a certain  
period of time.  
■When electronic key function

If the position of the electronic key  
has not changed for a certain  
amount of time such as when the  
electronic key is left somewhere, the  
function of the electronic key stops  
to reduce depletion of the battery.  
• The smart key system has not
