PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING INTELLIGENT TESTER
1. When using the intelligent tester with the power switch OFF to troubleshoot:
  Connect the intelligent tester to the vehicle, and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5 second intervals until communication between the tester and vehicle begins.
2. After all DTCs are cleared, check if the trouble occurs again 6 seconds after the power switch is turned ON (IG).
PRECAUTIONS FOR EACH FUNCTION
1. Precautions for the key:
  The key is a precision instrument. Be sure to observe the following:
  1. Do not drop or strike the key.
  2. Do not keep the key in a high temperature area for a long time.
  3. Do not use an ultrasonic washing machine to clean the key.
  4. Keep the key away from magnets or magnetized items during use.
  5. Do not attach any stickers to the key.
2. Precautions for the battery built into the key and the vehicle battery:
  1. When the door is being locked, the vehicle battery is used to transmit a radio wave. The battery may be fully depleted if the vehicle remains stopped for a long time. If the vehicle is not used for a long time, replace the transmitter battery (see REMOVAL ) or cancel the smart access system with push-button start (for door lock) (see ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION ).
  2. When the door is being locked with the key in the detection area of the door oscillator, the battery is used to regulate communication between the key and vehicle. If the vehicle is not used, keep the key away from the vehicle (more than 2 m (6.56 ft.)).
