(3) With the system in unlock standby mode, hold the front door outside handle assembly and check that all the doors unlock.

HINT
* The system is in unlock standby mode when the electrical key transmitter is in the detection area and the key ID code sent by the electrical key transmitter matches the key ID code stored by the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).
* Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter is within 0.2 m (0.66 ft.) of the front door outside handle assembly.
* Inspect the front passenger side door using the same procedure.

(4) Check the unlock response sensitivity. With the system in unlock standby mode, touch the area shown in the illustration and check that the door unlocks.

NOTICE:
If the sensor is touched too quickly or released too slowly, the sensor may not react and the door will not unlock.

HINT
* As communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter is within 0.2 m (0.66 ft.) of the front door outside handle assembly, the door may not lock if the lock sensor is touched with the same hand that is holding the electrical key transmitter, etc.
* If the key lock-in prevention function buzzer sounds, electric waves from the indoor electrical key antenna may be leaking from the vehicle.
* Inspect the front passenger side door using the same procedure.
* The door lock operation cannot be performed more than 2 times consecutively.

(3) After the system enters unlock standby mode, touch the unlock sensor on the outside handle within 3 seconds. Check that the door unlocks.

NOTICE:
The electrical key transmitter may not be able to communicate with the system within a 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) radius of each outside handle.

(c) Check the entry back door unlock function.

(1) Perform a wireless lock operation to lock all the doors, operate the unlock switch of the back door opener switch assembly while carrying the electrical key transmitter and check that all the doors unlock.

(2) Inspect the entry back door unlock operating range. While standing at the rear of the vehicle, hold the electrical key transmitter so that it is facing the direction shown in the illustration at the same height as the back door opener switch assembly and approximately 0.7 m (2.30 ft.) from the vehicle, press the unlock switch of the back door opener switch assembly and check that all the doors unlock.

(d) Check the entry back door lock function.

NOTICE:
If the electrical key transmitter is inside the vehicle and a door lock operation is performed, it is possible that the electrical key transmitter may be locked inside the vehicle.

(1) With all the doors closed and unlocked, press the lock switch of the back door opener switch assembly while carrying the electrical key transmitter outside of the vehicle and check that all the doors lock.

(2) Inspect the entry back door lock operating range. Hold the electrical key transmitter so that it is facing the direction shown in the illustration at the same height as the top edge of the rear bumper and approximately 0.3 m (0.98 ft.) from the vehicle, press the lock of the back door opener switch assembly and check that all the doors lock.

* Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter is within 0.2 m (0.66 ft.) of the rear bumper.
* If the key lock-in prevention function buzzer sounds, electric waves from the indoor electrical key antenna assembly may be leaking from the vehicle.

(e) Check the entry ignition function.

* *1: for Automatic Transaxle

* *2: for Manual Transaxle

(1) With the engine switch off, move the shift lever to P*1, depress the brake pedal*1 or clutch pedal*2 while carrying the electrical key transmitter and check that the engine switch indicator illuminates in green. Then, with the engine switch indicator illuminated in green, press the engine switch and check that the engine starts.

(2) With the brake pedal*1 or clutch pedal*2 released and the engine switch off, press the engine switch while carrying the electrical key transmitter and check that the power source mode changes as follows: off -> on (ACC) -> on (IG) -> off. However, if the shift lever is in any position other than P while the engine switch is on (IG), the power source mode will not change to off, but to on (ACC)*1.

(3) Stop the vehicle, press the engine switch and check that the power source mode changes to off (the engine stops and all electrical systems are off). However, if the shift lever is in any position other than P, even if the engine switch is pressed while the vehicle is stationary, the power source mode will not change to off, but to on (ACC). Move the shift lever to P, open the door and check that the steering lock operates*1.

(4) Inspect the entry ignition operating range (front). Place the electrical key transmitter on the front seat at either inspection point so that it is facing in the direction shown in the illustration and check that the engine can be started.
