1Using the Keyless Access System
•
Do not leave the keyless access remote in the
vehicle when you get out. Carry it with you.
•
Even if you are not carrying the keyless access
remote, you can lock/unlock the doors and tailgate
while someone else with the remote is within
range.
•
The door may be unlocked if the door handle is
covered with water in heavy rain or in a car wash if
the keyless access remote is within range.
•
If you grip a door handle wearing gloves, the door
sensor may be slow to respond or may not respond
by unlocking the doors.
•
After locking the door, wait at least two seconds
before unlocking it by gripping the handle.
•
The door might not open if you pull it immediately
after gripping the door handle. Grip the handle
again and confirm that the door is unlocked before
pulling the handle.
•
Even within the 32 inches (80 cm) radius, you may
not be able to lock/unlock the doors with the
keyless access remote if it is above or below the
outside handle.
•
The keyless access remote may not operate if it is
too close to the door and door glass.
The light flash, beep and door unlock mode settings
can be customized using the audio/information
screen or multi-information display (MID).
