ENTRY AND START SYSTEM(for Start Function) PRECAUTION

CAUTION:

As weak radio waves are emitted from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly, if a pacemaker is being used, be sure to read the pacemaker instruction manual and the following.


  • People with implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators should maintain a reasonable distance between themselves and the entry and start system antennas. The radio waves may affect the operation of such devices. If necessary, the entry function can be disabled. Ask your dealer for details, such as the frequency of radio waves and timing of the emitted radio waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if you should disable the entry function.

  • User of any electrical medical device other than implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators should consult the manufacturer of the device for information about its operation under the influence of radio waves. Radio waves could have unexpected effects on the operation of such medical devices.

  • Ask your dealer for details for disabling the entry function.

  1. PRECAUTION WHEN USING GTS


    1. When the engine switch is off, the DTCs stored in the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) are cleared. Be sure to record any output DTCs immediately.

    2. When using the GTS with the engine switch off, connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins. Then select Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start. While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS and the vehicle.

  2. PRECAUTION RELATED TO VEHICLE BATTERY


    1. When the battery is discharged, if the 12 V battery of another vehicle is used to jump start the engine, push the P position switch (shift position indication) and open and close the driver door with the engine switch off before starting the engine.

    2. After the battery is removed and reinstalled, be sure to wait 10 seconds or more before the next engine start. The engine may not start immediately after the battery is reinstalled.

      Tech Tips


      • After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery cable, the engine may not start on the first attempt. If this occurs, turn the engine switch off. The engine will start normally from the second time onward.

      • When the battery cable is disconnected and reconnected, the power source mode returns to the mode it was in before the battery cable was disconnected.

  3. PRECAUTION FOR REGISTRATION


    1. If replacing any of the following parts, refer to the Service Bulletin.


      1. Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)

      2. Steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly)

      3. ECM

      4. Electrical key transmitter sub-assembly

      5. ID code box (immobiliser code ECU)

      6. Main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU)

  4. PRECAUTIONS FOR STEERING LOCK/UNLOCK FUNCTION


    1. After turning the engine switch off and opening and closing any of the doors, the steering wheel will be locked due to the steering lock function. Operating the engine switch again automatically cancels the steering lock function.

    2. To prevent the steering lock motor from overheating, the motor operation may be suspended if the steering is locked and unlocked repeatedly in a short period of time. In this case, refrain from operating the engine switch. After about 10 seconds, the steering lock motor will resume functioning.
