Entry And Start System Operation Check

Check the entry unlock function.

1. Use the wireless lock operation to lock the doors. With the key in your possession, touch a door's outside handle (touch sensor) and check that the door unlocks.
   

Check the entry unlock operation's detection area.

1. Step 1: Hold the key at the same height as the door's outside handle (approximately 0.8 m (2.6 ft.)).
   
2. Step 2: Check that when the key is brought within 0.7 to 1.0 m (2.3 to 3.3 ft.) of the vehicle, the system enters unlock standby mode.
   

   HINT:

   Unlock standby mode is signified by the illumination of the electrical key's red LED.

3. Step 3: After the system enters unlock standby mode, touch the outside handle's sensor within 3 seconds. Check that the door unlocks.
   


4. Step 4: Repeat step 2 and 3 for the remaining doors.
   
5. Step 5: Inspect the door electrical key oscillator's response sensitivity. Wear protective gloves, set the system to unlock standby mode, and check that touching the inner side of the outside handle (the highlighted area in the illustration) with your finger causes the door to unlock.
   

   NOTICE:

   When touching the highlighted area, tapping too quickly or touching too long may not trigger the sensor. In such a case, the door will not unlock.

6. Step 6: Repeat step 5 for the remaining doors.
   

Check the entry lock function

1. Step 1: Close all of the vehicle's doors. With the electrical key in your possession outside of the vehicle, check that pressing the lock switch locks the doors.
   
2. Step 2: Inspect the entry lock operation's detection area and the indoor electrical key oscillator for wave leaks. Hold the electrical key at a height of 1 m (3.3 ft.) (0.1 m (0.3 ft.) above the lower edge of the window frame). Pay attention to the direction and position of the electrical key in the illustration. Check that when the electrical key is approximately 0.3 m (0.9 ft.) from the vehicle and the lock switch is pressed, the front doors lock and the warning buzzer (for when the electrical key is forgotten) does not sound. If the warning buzzer sounds, the indoor electrical key oscillator may have a wave leak.
   

   HINT:

   Due to the electrical key being unable to communicate with the system within a 0.2 m (0.6 ft.) distance from the outside handle, do not press the lock switch with the same hand that is holding the key. The doors will not lock.

3. Step 3: Repeat step 1 and step 2 for the remaining doors.
   

Check the entry back door lock function.

1. Close the back door. With the electrical key in your possession, check that pressing the back door open switch opens the back door.
   


2. Inspect the back door open operation's detection area. Hold the electrical key at the same height as the back door open switch (approximately 0.8 m (2.6 ft.)). Pay attention to the direction of the key shown in the illustration. Check that the when the key is brought within 0.7 to 1.0 m (2.3 to 3.3 ft.) of the vehicle, pressing the back door open switch opens the back door.
   

Check the entry ignition function.

1. When the engine is off:
   With the electrical key in your possession and the clutch pedal*1 (brake pedal*2) depressed, check that pressing the engine switch releases the steering wheel lock and starts the engine.
   

   HINT:

   1. The engine can be started only when the engine switch indicator illuminates in green.
      
   2. *1: for Manual Transaxle
      *2: except Manual Transaxle
      


2. When the engine is running:
   With the electrical key in your possession, check that pressing the engine switch stops the engine and activates the steering wheel lock.
   
3. Inspect the entry ignition operation's detection area. Pay attention to the direction of the electrical key in the illustration. When the electrical key is in either of the 2 locations in the illustration, check that the engine can start.
   

   NOTICE:

   The engine cannot be started when the electrical key is on the instrument panel or rear package tray, or in the glove box.

Check the key cancel function.

1. While the key cancel function (entry and start system cancel function) is ON, check that none of the functions in the entry and start system can be operated.
   

Check the answer-back function (hazard warning lights flashing).

Check that the warning buzzer (interior) sounds.

1. Carry the electrical key in the vehicle and close the driver side door. Then turn the ignition switch off or on (ACC).
   
2. Open the driver side door and check that the buzzer sounds intermittently.
   

Check that the warning buzzer (interior) stops.

1. When the buzzer is sounding, check that the buzzer stops sounding if either of the following are performed:
   - Close the driver side door (front door courtesy light switch is off).
   - Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
