Operating range for engine start function


Operating range for engine start function
The Intelligent Key can only be used for starting the engine when the Intelligent Key is within the specified operating range 1 .

If the Intelligent Key is within the operating range, it is possible for anyone, even someone who does not carry the Intelligent Key, to push the ignition switch to start the engine.
• The trunk area is not included in the operating range but the Intelligent Key may function.
• If the Intelligent Key is placed on the instrument panel, rear parcel shelf, inside the glove box or door pocket, the Intelligent Key may not function.
• If the Intelligent Key is placed near the door or window outside the vehicle, the Intelligent Key may function.
