GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Industry
Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note:Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. The termICbefore the radio certification number only
signifies that Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). Vehicles with the remote start feature will have a greater
range. A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions
•nearby radio towers
•structures around your vehicle
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by
other short-distance radio transmissions, for example 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.
Note:Make sure your vehicle is locked before leaving it unattended.
Note:If you are in range, the remote control will operate if you press
any button unintentionally.
Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency signal to communicate with your
vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock when one of the following
conditions is met:
•You touch the inside of the front exterior door handle.
•You press the luggage compartment button.
•You press a button on the transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency interference is present in the area or if the
transmitter battery is low, it may be necessary to mechanically unlock
your door. You can use the mechanical key blade in your intelligent
access key to open the driver door in this situation. Refer toRemote
Controlin this chapter for more information on the location and use of
the mechanical key blade.

REMOTE CONTROL
Intelligent Access Key
Your intelligent access keys operate
the power locks and the remote
start system. The key must be in
your vehicle to activate the
push-button start system.
The intelligent access key also
contains a removable mechanical key
blade that you can use to unlock the
driver door. Slide the release on the
back of the transmitter to release the
mechanical key blade, and then pull
the blade out.
Note:Your vehicle’s back-up keys
came with a security tag that
provides important vehicle key cut
information. Keep the tag in a safe
place for future reference.
Replacing the Battery
Note:Refer to local regulations when disposing of transmitter batteries.
Note:Do not wipe off any grease on the battery terminals or on the
back surface of the circuit board.
Note:Replacing the battery will not delete the transmitter from your
vehicle. The transmitter should operate normally.
The remote control uses one coin-type three-volt lithium battery CR2032
or equivalent.
