If the radio is on the sound may be muted for a brief
time due to a new audio system equalization being

be raised by releasing pressure on the hydraulic pump,
located under the passenger's side of the tonneau
cover, by using the following steps. The carpet liner on
the passenger's side must be pulled back to access the
hydraulic pump.

be attempted for five minutes from the last time the
convertible top button was pressed if the top is not
completely stowed, with the top down and the tonneau
latched, or closed, with the front top latch locked in
place, at the time the convertible top button was
released.

NO FOBS DETECTED
This message displays if the vehicle does not detect the

have attempted to start the vehicle or a vehicle door
has just closed. The following conditions may cause this
message to appear:
.Driver-added equipment plugged into the
accessory power outlet on the center console
is causing interference. Examples of these
devices are cell phones and cell phone chargers,
two-way radios, power inverters, or similar items.
Try moving the keyless access transmitter away
from these devices when starting the vehicle.
In addition, PDA devices and remote garage and
gate openers may also generate Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI) that may interfere with the keyless access transmitter. Do not carry the
keyless access transmitter in the same pocket or
bag as these devices.
.The vehicle is experiencing Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI). Some locations, such as
airports, automatic toll booths, and some gas
stations have EMI fields which may interfere
with the keyless access transmitter.
If moving the transmitter to different locations
within the vehicle does not help, place the
transmitter in the glove box transmitter pocket
with the buttons facing to the right and then
press the START button.
.The vehicle's battery voltage is low. The battery
voltage must be above 10 volts for the keyless
access transmitter to be detected properly.
