Keyless push start system
remote controller / Keyless
entry system transmitter
68LM205
Your vehicle is equipped with either a key-
less push start system remote controller
(Type A) or a keyless entry system trans-
mitter (Type B). The remote controller has
a keyless entry system and a keyless push
start system. The transmitter has only a
keyless entry system. For details, refer to
the following explanations.
WA R N I N G
Always check that the tailgate is
closed and latched securely. Com-
pletely closing the tailgate helps pre-
vent occupants from being thrown
from the vehicle in the event of an
accident. Completely closing it also
helps keep exhaust gases from enter-
ing the vehicle.
CAUTION
Check that there is no one near the
tailgate when pushing open the tail-
gate from inside the vehicle.
