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 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.
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See “Battery Replacement”
underRemote Keyless Entry System
Operation on page 101.
If you are still having trouble, see your dealer
or a qualied technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
The vehicle’s doors may be locked and unlocked,
and the trunk can be opened from approximately
3 feet (1 m) up to 197 feet (60 m) away with the

this button for approximately one second to open
the trunk. The trunk will open using the transmitter
when the vehicle speed is less than 2 mph (3 km/h),
when the ignition is off, or when the vehicle shift
lever is in PARK (P), if your vehicle has an
automatic transaxle.
L(Vehicle Locator/Panic Alarm):This button
may be used to locate your vehicle. When you
press and release this button, the horn will sound
three times and the headlamps and turn signals will
ash three times. Press and hold the button for
approximately three seconds to sound the panic
alarm. The horn will sound and the headlamps and
turn signals will ash for 30 seconds. Press the

Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each RKE transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your dealer. Remember to
bring any additional transmitters so they can also
be re-coded to match the new transmitter.
Once your dealer has coded the new transmitter,
the lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle.
Each vehicle can have up to four transmitters
matched to it.
