Do not leave the keys in direct sunlight, or in
locations with high temperature or high humidity.

•

Do not drop the keys or set heavy objects on them.

•

Keep the keys away from liquids, dust, and sand.

•

Do not take the keys apart except to replace the

Low Keyless Remote Signal Strength

The vehicle transmits radio waves to locate the keyless remote to start the engine;
lock and unlock all the doors and the fuel fill door; and open the trunk.

In the following cases, starting the engine, locking/unlocking the doors/fuel fill door,
or opening the trunk may be inhibited, or operation may be unstable:

•

Strong radio waves are being transmitted by nearby equipment.

•

You are carrying the keyless remote together with telecommunications
equipment, laptop computers, cell phones, or wireless devices.

•

A metallic object is touching or covering the keyless remote.

Key Number Tag

Key Number Tag

Keep the key number tag separate from the key in a
safe place outside of your vehicle.
If you wish to purchase an additional key, contact a
dealer.

If you lose your key and you cannot start the engine,
contact a dealer.

Low Keyless Remote Signal Strength

Communication between the keyless remote and the
vehicle consumes the keyless remote’s battery.
Battery life is about two years, but this varies
depending on regularity of use.
The battery is consumed whenever the keyless
remote is receiving strong radio waves. Avoid placing
it near electrical appliances such as televisions and
personal computers.

Opening/Closing the Moonroof

NOTICE

Opening the moonroof in below freezing
temperature or when it is covered with snow or ice
can damage the moonroof panel or motor.

The moonroof can be operated for up to 10 minutes
after you set the power mode to VEHICLE OFF.
Opening either front door cancels this function.

When resistance is detected, the auto reverse
function causes the moonroof to change directions,
then stop. Auto reverse stops sensing when the
moonroof is almost closed to ensure that it fully
closes. Make sure that all objects, including fingers,
are clear of the moonroof.

When you tilt open the moonroof, if the air
conditioner is set to

AUTO

it will automatically switch

to fresh air mode to reduce wind noise. When you
close the moonroof, depending on the situation, it
will change to recirculation or fresh air mode.

WARNING

Opening or closing the moonroof on

someone’s hands or fingers can cause

serious injury.

Make sure all hands and fingers are clear of

the moonroof before opening or closing it.
