22 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 2. Remove and replace the battery. Avoid touching the new battery with your fingers. Skin oils may cause battery deterioration. If you touch a battery, clean it with rubbing alcohol. 3. To assemble the transmitter case, snap the two halves together. 4. Test the transmitter operation. General Information This transmitter complies with FCC rules part 15. Operation is subject to the following conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference. 2. This device must accept any interference that may be received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. If your Remote Keyless Entry transmitter ever fails to operate from a normal distance, check the following: 1. Closeness to a radio transmitter, such as a radio station tower, airport transmitter, and some mobile or CB radios can affect transmitter operation. To verify if this is the cause, move the vehicle to another area and test transmitter operation. 2. The transmitter may become "out of sync" and will no longer function if operated more than 255 times while out of range of the vehicle (23 feet or 7 meters) or if operated while the vehicle battery is dead or disconnected. To "synchronize" the transmitter, remove the key from the ignition. Close the hood and all doors. Press both buttons on the transmitter for about 10 seconds. The horn will chirp once to acknowledge the signal. Normal transmitter operation should resume. 3. The transmitter battery may be weak or dead. The expected life of the battery is a minimum of three years.
