Changes or modifications to this system by other than an authorized service facility could void authorization to use this equipment. If there is a decrease in the keyless access transmitter range, try this: Keyless Access System Operation The Keyless Access System transmitter functions will work up to 195 feet (60 m) away from the vehicle. The Keyless Access System lets you lock and unlock the doors without removing the remote transmitter from your pocket, purse, briefcase, etc. The keyless access transmitter must be within 3 feet (1 m) of the door or trunk being opened. • Check the distance. The transmitter may be too far from the vehicle. It may be necessary to stand closer during rainy or snowy weather. • Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again. Keyless Unlocking Pull the door handle to unlock and open the door(s) if the keyless access transmitter is within range. See Door Locks on page 2-13 for additional information. To customize which doors unlock when pulling the driver or passenger handle, see "Keyless FT (Front) Door Unlock" and "Keyless Doors Unlock" under Vehicle Personalization on page 2-61 for additional information. • Check the transmitter's battery. See "Battery Replacement" under Keyless Access System Operation on page 2-5. • Make sure that an electronic device such as a cellular phone or lap top computer is not causing interference. Keyless Locking The doors lock after several seconds if all doors are closed and at least one keyless access transmitter has been removed from the interior of the vehicle. To customize whether the doors automatically lock when exiting the vehicle, see ″Keyless Lock Delay″ under Vehicle Personalization on page 2-61 for additional information. • If the transmitter is still not working correctly, see your dealer/retailer or a qualified technician for service. 2-5
