When the keyless access remote is within the
system’s operational range, and the driver’s door is
closed, the warning function cancels.

after the engine has been started, you can no longer
change the ENGINE START/STOP button mode or
restart the engine. Al ways make sure if the remote is
in your vehicle when you operate the ENGINE

through a window does not activate the warning
buzzer.

dashboard or in the glove box. It may cause the
warning buzzer to go off. Under some other
conditions that can prevent the vehicle from locating
the remote, the warning buzzer may also go off even
