The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter will work up to 60 m
(195 ft) away.

transmitter must be within 1 m (3 ft)
of the door or trunk being opened.

pull the handle to unlock and open
the door. On some models there is a
touch sensor on the door handle.
If the transmitter is recognized, the
door will unlock and open.
To access the rear doors first, pull
the rear door handle once to unlock
all doors and a second time to open
the door.
