I 
With  this feature, you  can 
lock  and  unlock  the  doors, 
unlock  the  trunk,  open  the 
fuel  door  and  turn  on your 
vehicle’s  interior lamps 
from  about 
30 feet (9 m) 
away  using  the 
RKE 
transmitter  supplied  with 
your  vehicle. 
Your 
RKE system  is  intended  to  be  used  as  a 
supplementary  vehicle  entry  device. It  is  not  intended  to 
replace,  but  rather  should  be  used  in  conjunction  with,  a 
door  lock  key. 
It operates  on  a radio  frequency  subject  to 
Federal  Communications  Commission  (FCC)  Rules  and 
with  Industry  Canada. 
This  device  complies  with  Part 
15 of the  FCC  Rules. 
Operation  is  subject  to  the following  two conditions: 
(1) this device  may  not  cause  harmful  interference, 
and 
(2) this  device  must  accept  any  interference 
received,  including  interference  that  may  cause 
undesired  operation.  This  device  complies  with 
RSS-210 of 
Industry  Canada. 
Operation  is  subject  to  the  following  two  conditions: 
(1) this  device  may  not cause  interference,  and (2) this 
device  must  accept  any  interference  received,  including 
interference  that  may cause  undesired  operation 
of 
the device. 
Changes  or  modifications  to  this system  by  other  than 
an 
authorized  service  facility  could  void  authorization  to 
use  this  equipment. 
The  range  of this  system  is  about 
30 feet (9 m).  At  times 
you  may  notice 
a decrease  in  range.  This is  normal  for 
any 
RKE system.  If  the  transmitter  does  not  work  or if 
you  have  to  stand  closer  to  your  vehicle  for the 
transmitter 
to work,  try  this: 
Check  to  determine  if  battery  replacement  is 
necessary.  See  the  instructions  that  follow. 
Check  the  distance.  You  may  be  too far from  your 
vehicle.  You  may  need  to  stand  closer  during  rainy 
or  snowy  weather. 
Check  the location.  Other  vehicles  or  objects  may  be 
blocking  the signal.  Take  a few  steps  to  the  left  or 
right,  hold  the  transmitter  higher,  and 
try again. 
If  you’re  still  having  trouble,  see  your  dealer or a 
qualified  technician  for  service.

Under  normal  use, the battery  in  your  remote  keyless 
entry  transmitter  should  last  about  four  years. 
You can  tell  the  battery is weak  if  the  transmitter  won’t 
work  at  the  normal  range  in  any  location. 
If you  have  to 
get close  to  your  vehicle  before  the transmitter  works, 
it’s  probably  time  to change  the  battery. 
I NOTICE: 
When  replacing  the  battery,  use  care  not  to  touch 
any  of  the  circuitry.  Static  from  your  body 
transferred  to  these  surfaces  may  damage 
the  transmitter. 
1. Insert  a  coin  into the  notch  near  the  key  ring  of the 
transmitter. 
Turn the  coin  to separate  the  two  halves 
of the  transmitter.
