Advanced Key Suspend Function

If one key is left in the vehicle or trunk and the second key is used to lock the vehicle, the functions of the advanced key left in the vehicle or the trunk are temporarily suspended to prevent theft of the vehicle.

The following are inoperable: - Starting the engine using the start knob.

- Operating the request switches.

To restore these functions, perform any one of the following:
- Press the lock or unlock button on the advanced key which has had its functions suspended.

- While carrying another advanced key, push in the start knob until the KEY indicator light (green) in the instrument cluster illuminates.

- Insert the auxiliary key and turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
