• The smart key is near a mobile two-way radio system or a mobile phone.

• Another vehicle's smart key is being operated close to your vehicle.

• If the smart key is not moved for some time, the detection function for smart key operation will pause. Lift the smart key to activate the detection again.: (if equipped)

Tinting the vehicle windows with film, especially metalized film, may interfere with receiving frequency transmitted by the smart key, reducing its operating range.

Always insert the key battery with the correct polarity. Incorrect insertion may cause the key to malfunction or the battery to discharge prematurely.
