operating the LOCK/ UNLOCK but-
tons on the remote controller. Refer

When the door (s) is (are) unlocked:
❒the turn signal lights will flash twice, and

sition. If you push the ignition switch
during that time, the light will start to
fade out immediately.
Be sure the doors are locked after you op-
erate the request switch to lock.

ing conditions:
– if any door is open or incompletely

❒If a spare remote controller is in the ve-
hicle, the request switches may not op-
erate normally.
❒The remote controller will only oper-
ate a request switch if it is within the
switch’s operating range. For example,

quest switch, the driver’s door switch
can be operated but the front passen-
ger’s door switch or rear door switch

runs down or there are strong radio
waves or noise, the operating range
may be narrower or the remote con-
troller may be inoperative.
❒If you are too close to the door glass,
the remote controller may not oper-
ate.
