Keyless locking and unlocking
This system makes it possible to unlock and lock the vehicle without having to press any buttons on the Personal Car
Communicators (PCC). It is only necessary to have a keyless drive remote control in your possession to operate the
central locking system.
NOTE
The buttons on the keyless drive remote control can also be used to lock and unlock the vehicle. See page 54
for
more information.
Both of the PCCs provided with the vehicle have the keyless function, and additional ones can be ordered. The system
can accommodate up to six PCCs.
The red rings in the illustration indicate the area around the vehicle covered by the keyless drive antennas.
Unlocking the vehicle
A keyless drive remote control must be on the same side of the vehicle as the door to be opened, and be within 5
feet (1.5 meters) of the lock or the tailgate(see the shaded areas in the illustration).

The next time a door is opened by a person with the same PCC in his/her possession, the driver's seat and door
mirrors will automatically move to the position that they were in when the door was most recently locked.
NOTE
If several people carrying PCCs approach the vehicle at the same time, the driver's seat and door mirrors will assume
the positions they were in for the person who opens the driver's door.
