General Information on Radio Frequencies

Note: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 10 m (33 ft).

A decrease in operating range could be caused by:

• Weather conditions

• Nearby radio towers

• Structures around your vehicle

• Other vehicles parked next to your vehicle

The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by other radio transmitters, for example amateur radios, medical equipment, wireless headphones, wireless remote controls, cell phones, battery chargers and alarm systems.

If the frequencies are jammed, you will not be able to use your remote control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.

Note: Make sure your vehicle is locked before leaving it unattended.

Note: If you are in range, the remote control will operate if you press any button unintentionally.

Note: The remote control contains sensitive electrical components. Exposure to moisture or impact may cause permanent damage.

Remote Control

Your vehicle comes with a rechargeable remote control. The remote control battery automatically charges when the key is in the ignition and the engine is running.

You should use all remote controls to drive your vehicle at least once every year to prevent the remote control battery from losing charge.

Note: The remote control battery cannot be replaced. Do not attempt to remove or replace the battery as this could cause damage to the key housing not covered by the vehicle warranty.

You can purchase replacement keys or remote controls from an authorized dealer.

Reprogramming the Unlocking Function

Note: When you press the unlock button, either all the doors are unlocked or only the driver and passenger doors are unlocked. Pressing the unlock button again unlocks all the doors.

Press and hold the unlock and lock buttons on the remote control simultaneously for at least four seconds with the ignition off.

The direction indicators flash twice to confirm the change.

To return to the original unlocking function, repeat the process.

Replacing a Lost Key or Remote Control

You can purchase replacement keys or remote controls from an authorized dealer.

Authorized dealers can program remote controls for your vehicle. See Remote Control (page 42).

To re-program the passive anti-theft system, see an authorized dealer.
