ignition keys have a small hole. See
your dealer if a replacement key is
required.

the key like two links of a chain to reduce the risk of unintentionally
moving the key out of the RUN

items to the ring attached to the
ignition key. Attach additional items
only to the second ring, and limit
added items to a few essential keys
or small, light items no larger than
an RKE transmitter.
