WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL
TRANSMITTER
This transmitter has four functions.
1
Locking the doors
2
Unlocking the doors
3
Unlocking the trunk lid
4
Sounding an alarm
The operational range of the wireless remote control is
approximately 1 meter (3 feet). The effective range may vary
with different conditions.
When handling, take care of the following:
Avoid knocking them hard against other objects.
Avoid putting them in water.
Locking / Unlocking the doors
When you push the “LOCK” button on the transmitter, all
the doors can be locked from outside the vehicle.
At this time, you can hear one beep. However, when you push
the “LOCK” button with any door not closed securely, the
buzzer sounds for 10 seconds or until all the doors are closed
securely. If the key is in the ignition switch, locking cannot be
done.
To make sure whether all the doors were locked or not, push
the “LOCK” button once again. If they were already locked, the
headlights and tail lights will flash.
When you push the “UNLOCK” button, the driver’s door
is unlocked. Pushing that button once again within 3
seconds from the first push, all other doors also unlock.
At this time, two beeps sound. Together with the activation of
unlocking, the interior light comes on for 15 seconds if the
interior light switch is in “DOOR” position. For further
information, see “Interior lights” on page 37.
You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the remote
unlock feature. If a door is not opened by then, all doors will
automatically relock.
When any door is unlocked, pushing the “LOCK” button locks
all the doors. To unlock the doors, push the “UNLOCK” button.
Continued pushing of the “LOCK” and “UNLOCK” buttons will
not cause repeated locking and unlocking of the doors. To
reverse the operation performed by the remote control feature,
release the first button and then push another button.
