PUSH BUTTON START
id099000001200
Purpose of Adoption
• Push button start has been adopted on all vehicles to realize comfortable engine starting/operability.
Service point
• Because the number of keyless antennas differs between vehicles with the keyless entry system and those with the advanced keyless entry system, it may not be possible to start the engine with the key in locations where it was once possible previously. *However, this is only a difference in the possible locations from which the engine can be started, and there is no change from the previous vehicles in terms of assured engine starting locations.
• If the drive wheels are rotated on a 2-wheel speed tester without rotating the driven wheels, a vehicle speed malfunction DTC is stored and the ignition cannot be switched off even if the push button start is pressed. To turn the ignition off, long-press the button or press it repeatedly.
Common Inquiry
• There may be claims that the engine cannot be started with the key placed in areas where it was possible to start the engine previously.
• The assured operation area is unchanged from the previous vehicles. The reason why the operation area in which previous vehicles could be started was wider is because of the necessity to prevent the key from being left in the vehicle when using the smart entry function. The assured engine starting operation area (operation not assured on dashboard, in cargo compartment) is the same as that for previous MC advanced keyless vehicles and other manufacturer smart keyless vehicles.
