ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

CHECK ELECTRICAL DOOR LOCK OPERATION
a. Check the basic function.
1. The door control switch (manual operation): 1) pushing LOCK locks all the doors and 2) pushing UNLOCK unlocks all the doors.
2. The door key cylinder lock function: turning the driver or passenger side door key cylinder to LOCK locks all the doors.
3. The door key cylinder unlock function: 1) turning the driver or passenger side door key cylinder to UNLOCK once unlocks only the driver side door, and 2) turning it to UNLOCK again within 3 seconds unlocks all the doors (2-step unlock function).

b. Check the key lock-in prevention function.

NOTE: To prevent the key from being locked in the vehicle, the following inspection should be made with the driver side door window open.

1. Have the key inserted into the ignition key cylinder.
2. With the driver side door open, turn the driver side door lock knob to LOCK and check that all the doors unlock immediately.
3. With the driver side door open, push LOCK on the door control switch (manual operation) and check that all the doors unlock immediately.
4. With the driver side door open, turn the driver side door lock knob to LOCK, hold it for 2 seconds or more and then close the driver side door. Check that all the doors unlock.

c. Check the security function.
1. Close all the doors and leave the driver side door window open so that the door control switch can be operated from outside the vehicle.
2. Pull out the key, open the driver side door and then close and lock the door without using the key. Check that pushing UNLOCK on the door control switch (manual operation) from outside the vehicle does not unlock the doors.
3. Pull out the key, close and lock the driver side door by key operation. Check that pushing UNLOCK on the door control switch (manual operation) from outside the vehicle does not unlock the doors.
4. Pull out the key, close the driver side door and lock the door by wireless door lock operation. Check that pushing UNLOCK on the door control switch (manual operation) from outside the vehicle does not unlock the doors.

HINT: Check that the security function is canceled when any of the following conditions is met:
- The ignition switch is turned ON.
- The driver side door is unlocked using the key.
- UNLOCK on the door control switch (manual operation) is pushed after the door control knob is turned to UNLOCK manually.
- The doors are unlocked with wireless operation.

d. Check the illumination function.
1. Set the room lamp switch to the DOOR position.
2. With all doors locked, check that all the doors unlock when the driver side door lock cylinder is turned to UNLOCK using the key. At the same time, the room lamp should turn ON.
3. Check that the room lamp turns off in approximately 15 seconds if the doors have not been opened.

e. Check the automatic locking function interlocked with the shift lever.
1. With all the doors closed, the engine started and the shift lever in the P position, check that moving the shift lever to any other position automatically locks all unlocked doors.
2. If, after the doors automatically lock, one or more doors are once again unlocked, check that all unlocked doors automatically lock once again. This is known as the retry function. The retry function is cancelled when any of the following conditions is met:
- All the doors are locked.
- Any door is opened.
- The shift lever is moved into the P position.
- The doors are locked or unlocked by the user.
- The ignition switch is turned OFF.
- The engine is stopped.

f. Check the automatic unlocking function interlocked with the shift lever.
1. With the ignition switch ON, moving the shift lever to the P position from any other position will automatically unlock all the doors.

g. Check the driver door-linked automatic door unlock.
1. With the driver side door closed, turning the ignition switch from ON to OFF and opening the driver door within 10 seconds will automatically unlock all the doors.
