operational range.
■When the power mode is in ON
If the keyless access remote is taken out of the 
vehicle, and the driver’s door is closed,

When the keyless access remote is within the 
system’s operational range,  and the driver’s door is 
closed, the warni ng function cancels.
If the keyless access remote is  taken out of the vehicle 
after the power system has  been turned on, you can 
no longer change the ENGINE START/STOP button 
mode or restart the power system. Always make sure 
if the remote is in your vehicle when you operate the

Removing the keyless access remote from the vehicle 
through a window does not  activate the warning 
buzzer.
Do not put the keyless access remote on the 
dashboard or in the glove box. It may cause the 
warning buzzer to go off. Under some other 
conditions that can prevent  the vehicle from locating 
the remote, the warning buzzer may also go off even 
if the remote is within the system’s operational 
range.
