If the key fob does not operate
when pushing a button, the operational
range becomes too small, or the
warning light does not illuminate or
flash, the battery may be weak or
discharged. To install a new battery,
refer to "Key Fob Battery
Replacement."
Battery life is about one year.
Replace the battery with a new one if
the
Warning light (green) flashes in
the instrument cluster. Replacing the
battery about once a year is
recommended because the Warning
light may not illuminate or flash if the
battery is low or discharged.
Additional key fobs may be
obtained at an authorized dealer. Up to
six key fobs may be used with the
Advanced Keyless Entry System per
vehicle. Bring all key fobs to an
authorized dealer when additional keys
are required.
