Description & Operation: Notes
The remote keyless entry system allows the doors to be locked and unlocked, and luggage compartment to be opened by low-power electrical waves emitted from a hand-held transmitter. Pushing the transmitter UNLOCK button once will deactivate the theft deterrent system and unlock driver's door. Pushing the UNLOCK button again within 3 seconds will unlock the other doors and sound 2 chirps. Interior lights will also illuminate if interior light switch is in DOOR position. Pushing the transmitter luggage compartment button will open the luggage compartment and sound one chirp. However, these functions do not operate if ignition switch is in ON position. If doors are not opened within 30 seconds, all the doors will automatically relock.
