Key Types and Functions

This vehicle comes with the following keys:

Use the key to start and stop the engine, to lock and unlock* all the doors and tailgate.
You can also use the remote transmitter* or keyless access system* to lock and unlock all the doors and tailgate.
Detail
All the keys have an immobilizer system. The immobilizer system helps to protect against vehicle theft.

Immobilizer System


The keys contain precision electronics.
Adhere to the following advice to prevent damage to the electronics:
  • Do not leave the keys in direct sunlight, or in locations with high temperature or high humidity.
  • Do not drop the keys or set heavy objects on them.
  • Keep the keys away from liquids.
  • Do not take the keys apart except for replacing the battery.
If the circuits in the keys are damaged, the engine may not start, and the remote transmitter*/keyless access system* may not work.
If the keys do not work properly, have them inspected by a dealer.

Keyless remote*

The built-in key can be used to lock/unlock the doors when the keyless remote battery becomes weak and the power door lock/unlock operation is disabled.

To remove the built-in key, pull it out while sliding the release knob. To reinstall the built-in key, push the built-in key into the keyless remote until it clicks.

Retractable keys*

The key folds up inside the remote transmitter.

  1. Press the release button to release the key out from the transmitter.
    • Make sure to fully extend the key.
  2. To close the key, press the release button then push the key inside the transmitter until you hear a click.
Detail
If the key is not fully extended, the immobilizer system may not work properly, and the engine may not start.
Avoid contact with the key whenever it extends or retracts.
