• the optional interior motion and incli-nation alarm sensors.
• Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
• the moonroof and interior courtesylight controls.
• the central locking buttons on the frontdoor armrests, although the interiordoor handles would still function toallow occupants to leave the vehicle.
• Disabled features would remain disa-bled until the remote is used again tounlock the vehicle.
• In addition, locking an occupied vehi-cle would hinder rapid access to theoccupants in an accident or emer-gency.
Replacing the battery in the remote keyIf the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates that the battery isweak and should be replaced.
To replace the battery:1. Carefully pry open the rear edge of the
cover with a small screwdriver.
2. Insert a new 3-volt, CR2032 battery, with the battery's plus side up. Avoid touching the contact surfaces of the battery withyour fingers.
