Engine Immobiliser System (w/ Smart Key System)

ENGINE IMMOBILISER: ENGINE IMMOBILISER SYSTEM (w/ Smart Key System): PRECAUTION

NOTICE:
When disconnecting the cable from negative (-) battery terminal, initialize the following system after the terminal is reconnected:





1. PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING TECHSTREAM

(a) When using the Techstream to troubleshoot the smart key system: Connect the Techstream to the DLC3 while the power switch is off, and turn the door courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the tester and vehicle begins.

2. PRECAUTIONS FOR EACH FUNCTION

(a) Precautions for the electrical key:

* The electrical key is a precision instrument. Be sure to observe the following:

(1) Do not drop or strike the electrical key.

(2) Do not keep the electrical key in a high temperature area for a long time.

(3) Do not use an ultrasonic washing machine to clean the electrical key.

(4) Keep the electrical key away from magnets or magnetized items during use.

(5) Do not attach any stickers to the electrical key.

(b) Precautions for starting the hybrid control system:

(1) Before starting the hybrid control system, firmly depress the brake pedal until the indicator light of the power switch illuminates in green.

(2) Be sure to turn the power switch off before disconnecting the negative (-) battery terminal. When the battery terminal is disconnected, the power source mode (off, on (ACC), on (IG)) will remain memorized. If the vehicle's battery becomes discharged, be careful to remember the power source mode.

(3) After the battery is removed and reinstalled, be sure to wait 10 seconds or more before starting the hybrid control system. The hybrid control system may not start immediately after the battery is reinstalled.

(c) Precautions for the battery built into the electrical key and the vehicle battery:

(1) When the doors are locked (locked state), signals are emitted by the vehicle at predetermined intervals. If the vehicle remains parked for a long time, the battery may become discharged. To prevent this, periodically charge the vehicle battery, or disable the smart key system.

(2) When the doors are locked (locked state), and the electrical key remains in the door oscillator detection area, the system will maintain periodic communication with the electrical key. If the vehicle remains parked in this state for a long time, the vehicle and key batteries may become discharged. If the vehicle is not being used, keep the electrical key at least 2 m (6.56 ft) away from the vehicle.
