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 interference.
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may

Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in the RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
If the battery is weak the transmitter will not work
within its normal range. It is probably time to
change the battery if you have to be very close
to the vehicle before the transmitter works.
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.
To replace the battery, do the following:
1. Insert a at object with a thin edge into the
notch, located below the trunk release
button, and pry the front and back apart.
2. Remove the old battery, but do not use a
metal object to do this.
3. Slide the new battery into the transmitter with
the positive side of the battery facing up. Use
a type CR2032 battery, or equivalent type.
4. Snap the front and the back of the transmitter
together.
5. Test the operation of the transmitter with
the vehicle.

To prevent gear damage, this system also
prevents cranking if the engine is already
running. Engine cranking can be stopped by
turning the ignition switch to ACC or LOCK.
Notice:Cranking the engine for long periods
of time, by returning the key to the START
position immediately after cranking has ended,
can overheat and damage the cranking
motor, and drain the battery. Wait at least
15 seconds between each try, to allow
the cranking motor to cool down.
2. If the engine does not start after 5-10 seconds,
especially in very cold weather (below 0°F
or−18°C), it could be ooded with too much
gasoline. Try pushing the accelerator
pedal all the way to the oor and holding it
there as you hold the key in START for up to
a maximum of 15 seconds. Wait at least
15 seconds between each try, to allow the
cranking motor to cool down. When the engine
starts, let go of the key and accelerator.If the vehicle starts briey but then stops
again, do the same thing. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine. Do not race the
engine immediately after starting it. Operate
the engine and transmission gently until the oil
warms up and lubricates all moving parts.
Notice:Your engine is designed to work with
the electronics in your vehicle. If you add
electrical parts or accessories, you could
change the way the engine operates. Before
adding electrical equipment, check with
your retailer. If you do not, your engine might
not perform properly. Any resulting damage
would not be covered by your vehicle’s
warranty.

#(Air Conditioning):Press the left knob on
the control panel to turn the air conditioning system
on or off. An indicator light on the button will
come on to let you know the air conditioning is
activated. When the system is on, this setting cools
and dehumidies the air entering your vehicle.
The air conditioning will not function if the fan is
turned off. If air conditioning is selected with
fan off, the indicator light ashes three times and
then turns off.
There could be a slight change in engine
performance when the air conditioning compressor
turns off and turns on again. This is normal. The
system is designed to make adjustments to
help with fuel economy while still maintaining the
selected temperature.
The air conditioning system removes moisture
from the air, so a small amount of water can drip
underneath your vehicle while idling or after
turning off the engine. This is normal.Air conditioning does not operate at temperature
below 40°F (4°C). In temperatures above 40°F
(4°C), the air conditioning cannot be turned off in
defrost, oor/defog, and recirculation modes
because it helps to remove moisture from the
vehicle. It also helps to keep the windows clear.
On hot days, open the windows to let the hot
inside air escape; then close them. This helps
reduce the time it takes for the vehicle to
cool down. It also helps the system to operate
more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days, do the following:
1. Select the vent mode.
2. Select recirculation mode.
3. Select the air conditioning to on.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest fan speed.
Using these settings together for long periods of
time can cause the air inside of the vehicle to
become too dry. To prevent this from happening,
after the air in the vehicle has cooled, turn the
recirculation mode off.
