and the vehicle battery may be discharged
if the ignition switch is left in the ACC
position. When leaving the vehicle, make

q Keyless Entry System
This system uses the more traditional key
buttons to remotely lock and unlock the
doors and opens the trunk lid.
It can also help you signal for attention.
Press the buttons slowly and carefully.
NOTE
lThe keyless entry system is designed to
operate up to about 2.5 m (8 ft) from the
center of the vehicle, but this may vary due
to local conditions.
lThe system does not operate when the
ignition switch is not in the LOCK position
or the start knob is pushed in.
lWith the start knob installed in the LOCK
position, the system is fully operational. If
the ignition switch is not in the LOCK
position or the start knob is pushed in, the
system does not operate.
lAll doors cannot be locked by pressing the
lock button while any door is open. The
hazard warning lights will also not flash.
lIf the transmitter does not operate when
pressing a button or the operational range
becomes too small, the battery may be
dead. To install a new battery, refer to
Maintenance (page 3-5).
