and environmental conditions may in-
terfere with the communication be-
tween the access key and the vehicle
under the following conditions, and it
may not be possible to lock or unlock
the doors or start the engine.
–When operating near a facility
where strong radio waves are trans-
mitted, such as a broadcast station
and power transmission lines
–When products that transmit
radio waves are used, such as an
access key or a remote transmitter
