Low Keyless Remote Signal Strength

The vehicle transmits radio waves to locate the keyless remote to start the engine,
lock and unlock

all the doors and the fuel fill door, and open

the trunk.

In the following cases, starting the engine, locking/unlocking

the doors/fuel fill

door, or opening

the trunk may be inhibited or operation may be unstable:

Strong radio waves are being transmitted by nearby equipment.

•

You are carrying the keyless remote together with telecommunications
equipment, laptop computers, cell phones, or wireless devices.

•

Low Keyless Remote Signal Strength

Communication between the keyless remote and the

Battery life is about two years, but this varies
depending on regularity of use.
The battery is consumed whenever the keyless
remote is receiving strong radio waves. Avoid placing
it near electrical appliances such as televisions and
personal computers.
