RADIO FREQUENCIES
CAUTIONS
The radio frequency used by your
remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio
transmissions (e.g. amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless headphones,
remote controls and alarm systems). If the
frequencies are jammed, you will not be
able to use your remote control. You can
lock and unlock the doors with the key. Check your vehicle is locked before
leaving it unattended. This will
safeguard against any potential
malicious frequency blocking. Note:
You could unlock the doors if you
press the buttons on the remote control
unintentionally.
The operating range between your remote
control and your vehicle varies depending
on the environment.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
CONTROL
You can programme a maximum of eight
remote controls to use with your vehicle
(including any supplied with your vehicle).
Programming a new remote
control
1. Insert the key in the ignition.
2. Cycle the key from position 0 to II and
then back to 0 four times within six
seconds.
3. Leave the key in position 0 and press any button on the remote control
within 10 seconds. You will receive
confirmation via a chime or LED that
programming has been successful. Note:
Further remote controls may be
programmed at this stage.
4. Press any button on each additional remote control within 10 seconds of
each other.
Reprogramming the unlocking
function
Note: When you press the unlock button
either all the doors are unlocked or only the
driver ’s door is unlocked. Pressing the unlock
button again unlocks all the doors.
Press and hold the unlock and lock buttons
on the remote key simultaneously for at
least four seconds with the ignition off. The
direction indicators will flash twice to
confirm the change.
To return to the original unlocking function,
repeat the process.
CHANGING THE REMOTE
CONTROL BATTERY Make sure that you dispose of
old batteries in an
environmentally friendly way.
Seek advice from your local authority
regarding recycling.

LocksE102566

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Note:
On vehicles with automatic
transmission, the system is active only in S,
D and N.
The system is only active when you exceed
10 km/h (6 mph). The system is
temporarily deactivated when you select
reverse gear.
System detection and alerts
The system will trigger the alert for vehicles
that enter the blind spot zone from the rear
or merge from the side. Vehicles that you
pass, or vehicles that enter the blind spot
zone from the front, will only trigger the
alert after the vehicle has remained in the
blind spot zone for a short period of time.
Note: Vehicles that pass through the blind
zone quickly (typically less than 2 seconds)
will not trigger the alert.
The system consists of two radar sensors
each located behind the rear wheels
hidden behind the bumpers. CAUTIONS
Do not place items such as bumper
stickers in this area.
Repairs to these areas using body filler
will affect the performance of the
system. Detection limitations
There may be certain instances where
vehicles entering and exiting the blind spot
zones may not be detected.
Instances which may cause non-detection:
•
Debris build up on the rear bumper
panels in the area of the sensors.
• Certain manoeuvring of vehicles
entering and exiting the blind zone.
• Vehicles passing through the blind zone
at high speed.
• Severe weather conditions.
• Several vehicles passing through the
blind zone following each other closely.
False alerts
Note: False alerts are temporary and will
self correct.
There may be certain instances when the
system will alert with no vehicle present in
the blind zone.
Circumstances where false alerts may
occur:
• Road guardrails.
• Motorway concrete walls.
• Construction areas.
• Sharp turns around a building.
• Bushes and trees.
• Cyclists and motorcyclists.
• Coming to a stop with a vehicle directly
behind but very close.
Turning the system on and off
Note: The on or off position will remain until
manually changed.
You can turn the system on and off using
the information display. See Information
Displays (page 83).
