- This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note:
Changes or modifications not expressively approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. The term "IC:" before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately

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 cannot use your remote control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.
Note:
Make sure to lock your vehicle before leaving it unattended.
Note:
If you are in range, the remote control operates if you press any button unintentionally.

The system uses a radio frequency signal to communicate with your vehicle and authorizes your vehicle to unlock when one of the following conditions are met:- You activate the front exterior door handle switch.
- You press the luggage compartment button.
- You press a button on the remote control.
If excessive radio frequency interference is present in the area, or if the remote control battery is low, you may need to mechanically unlock your door. You can use the mechanical key blade in your intelligent access key to open the driver door in this situation. See
