Keyless Operation System - Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Owner's Manual

Keyless operation system*

E00305600409
The keyless operation system allows you to lock
and unlock the doors, to open the trunk lid, and
start the engine simply by carrying the keyless op-
eration key with you.
The keyless operation key can also be used as the
keyless entry system remote control switch.
Refer to "Keyless operation system: Keyless entry
system" on page 1-19.
The driver should always carry the keyless opera-
tion key. This key is necessary for locking and un-
locking the doors, opening the trunk lid, starting
the engine and otherwise operating the vehicle, so
before locking and leaving the vehicle, be sure to
check that you have the keyless operation key.
WARNING
l People with implantable cardiac pacemak-
ers or implantable cardiovascular-defib-
rillators should not go near the exterior
transmitters (A) or the interior transmit-
ters (B). The radio waves used by the key-
less operation system could adversely af-
fect implantable cardiac pacemakers or
implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.
WARNING
l When using electromedical devices other
than implantable cardiac pacemakers or
implantable cardiovascular-defibrilla-
tors, contact the electromedical device
manufacturer ahead of time to determine
the affects of radio waves on the devices.
Electromedical device operations could
be affected by radio waves.
