Under the following conditions, a beep
will be heard 6 times and the KEY
warning light (red) will flash continuously
when the start knob has not been returned
to the LOCK position to notify the driver
that the advanced key has been removed.
The KEY warning light (red) will stop
flashing when the advanced key is back
inside the vehicle:
l
The start knob has not been returned to
the LOCK position, the driver's door is
open, and the advanced key is removed
from the vehicle.
However the beep will be heard
continuously when the start knob is in
the ACC position and the door is open
due to the activation of the warning
beep indicating that the start knob is
not in the LOCK position.
l
The start knob has not been returned to
the LOCK position and all the doors
are closed after removing the advanced
key from the vehicle.

Because the advanced key utilizes low-
intensity radio waves, the Advanced
Key Removed From Vehicle Warning
may activate if the advanced key is
carried together with a metal object or it
is placed in a poor signal reception area.
