to be an interesting toy to play with
and could cause the power windows or
other controls to operate, or even make

low-intensity radio waves, it may
not function correctly under the
following conditions:
 


 The key is carried with
communication devices such as

 The key contacts or is covered by a
metal object.
 


 The key is near electronic devices
such as personal computers.
