• The detection area becomes smaller.
•The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not
leave the electronic ke y within 3 ft. (1 m)
of the following electr ical appliances that
produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless
phones
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers
