Pressing a button may cause the electronic key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft. Electronic key battery depletion The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years. (The card key battery life is about a year and a half.) If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin and a message will be shown on the multi-information display when the engine is stopped. To reduce key battery depletion when the electronic key is to not be used for long periods of time, set the electronic key to the battery-saving mode. (Turning an electronic key to battery-saving mode) As the electronic key always receives radio waves, the battery will become depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when necessary. The smart key system or the wireless remote control does not operate. The detection area becomes smaller. The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on. To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 3 ft. (1 m) of the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field: TVs Personal computers Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones Table lamps Induction cookers If a message regarding the state of the electronic key or engine switch mode, etc. is shown To prevent trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle, leaving the vehicle carrying the electronic key on your person without turning the engine switch to OFF or other passengers from unintentionally taking the key out of the vehicle, etc., a message that prompts the user to confirm the state of the electronic key or engine switch mode may be shown on the multi-information display.

Carrying the electronic key on your person Carry the electronic key 3.9 in. (10 cm) or more away from electric appliances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances within 3.9 in. (10 cm) of the electronic key may interfere with the key, causing the key to not function properly.
