Low Remote Signal Strength
The vehicle transmits radio waves to locate the remote when locking/unlocking the
doors*, opening the trunk*, or to activate the power system.

• Strong radio waves are being tra nsmitted by nearby equipment.
• You are carrying the remote together with telecommunications equipment,
laptop computers, cell phone s, or wireless devices.

depending on re gularity of use.
The battery is consumed whenever the remote is
receiving strong radio waves. Avoid placing it near
electrical appliances such as televisions and personal
computers.
