At times you may notice a decrease in operating
range. This is normal for any RKE system. If the
transmitter does not work or if you have to stand
closer to your vehicle for the transmitter to work,
try this:
• Check the distance. You may be too far from
your vehicle. You may need 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.
• Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See “Battery Replacement” under
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 95.
• If you are still having trouble, see your dealer or
a qualified technician for service.

System Operation
The vehicle’s doors can be locked and unlocked,
and the trunk can be unlatched from about
3 feet (1 m) up to 60 feet (18 m) away with the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
If your vehicle has the remote start feature you can
also start your vehicle with the RKE transmitter.
Your RKE transmitter, with the remote start button,
provides an increased range of 195 feet (60 m)
away. However, the range may be less while the
vehicle is running. As a result, you may need to be
closer to your vehicle to turn it off than you were to
turn it on.
There are other conditions which can affect the
performance of the transmitter. See Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System on page 94.
