an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the transmitter.

way radio system or a mobile phone.

operated close to your vehicle.

with the smart key, it is recommended to

If the smart key is in close proximity to
your mobile phone, the signal could be
blocked by your mobile phone’s normal
operational signals. This is specifically
relevant when the phone is active such
as making and receiving calls, text
messaging, and/or sending/receiving
emails. When possible, avoid keeping the
smart key and your mobile phone in the
same location such as a pants or jacket
