WARNING!
Never use the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the vehicle.
Doing so would ACTIVATE:
- the break-in alarm, which would sound if one of the doors were opened \
- the optional interior motion and inclination alarm sensors.
Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
- the moonroof and interior courtesy light controls.
- the central locking buttons on the front door armrests, although the i\
nterior door handles would still
function to allow occupants to leave the vehicle.
Disabled features would remain disabled until the remote were used again\
to unlock the vehicle.
In addition, locking an occupied vehicle would hinder rapid access to th\
e occupants in an accident or
emergency.
Replacing the battery in the remote control
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates th\
at the battery is weak and should be
replaced.
To replace the battery
1. Carefully pry open the rear edge of the cover with a small screwdrive\
r.
2. Insert a new 3-volt, CR2032 battery, with the battery's plus side up.\
Avoid touching the contact
surfaces of the battery with your fingers.
3. Press the cover back into place. Ensure that the rubber seal is corre\
ctly positioned to help keep out
moisture.
