•
Do not leave the smart entry remote in the vehicle
when you get out. Carry it with you.
•
Even if you are not carrying the smart entry remote,
you can lock/unlock the doors and the 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 smart entry remote is within range.
•
If you grip a front 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 and the
tailgate with the smart entry remote if it is above or
below the outside handle.
•
The smart entry remote may not operate if it is too
close to the door and door glass.
If the distance at which the remote transmitter works
varies, the battery is probably low. Replace the
button battery as soon as possible.
If the LED does not come on when you press a
button, the battery is dead.
