GENERAL INFORMATION

NOTE:
In this manual, F.A.S.T.-key (Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter) is described as Keyless Operation System (KOS).

With the conventional KOS adopted for OUTLANDER, the following changes have been made.

- Door entry function: The unlocking control has been changed from the sensor system to the switch system, and the power door locks with selective unlocking has been added.
- Keyless entry function: The multi-mode function has been changed, and the power door locks with selective unlocking has been added.
- Warning/Alarms: The key reminder buzzer and the engine switch reminder buzzer have been added.
- Engine start function: The system has been changed to the engine start system that supports OSS* (one-touch start system).
- Engine starting method when keyless operation key battery is discharged: A change has been made to the control that does not use the emergency key and performs the control with the discharged keyless operation key inserted in the key box.

NOTE:
OSS (one-touch start system): System that has the electrically actuated steering lock, and that allows the engine to be started and the vehicle power to be switched via the operation of engine switch.

Main components and functions









NOTE:
*: When registering the keyless operation keys, KOS-ECU numbers each key (1 to 4) in the order they are registered (initial priority). This priority is renewed each time the doors are locked/unlocked and the IG knob is pressed. For example, when only keys 1 and 3 have responded to the signal sent from KOS-ECU, the new priority of the keys would be 1-3-2-4. When keys 3 and 4 have responded, then the priority of the keys becomes 3-4-1-2.

NOTE:
*2: Illuminates for tire pressure warning. Flashes for about 1 minute and then continuously illuminated for TPMS malfunction warning.
