Transmitter Characteristics and Range:
TRANSMITTER CHARACTERISTICS AND RANGE:1. Weak radio frequency (RF) waves are used by the transmitter to operate the wireless door lock control system. Strong radio waves or RF noise from other sources may shorten the operating distance or prevent operation.
2. When the transmitter battery is weak, operation may be normal for the first one or two activations and then stop as the remaining battery capacity is depleted.
3. On key type transmiffers, the metal portion of the key serves as an antenna during transmitter operation. For optimum performance, the path between the metal portion of the key and the vehicle should not be obstructed by the operator's hand or other objects.
4. On key type transmitters, the operating distance of the transmitter varies from front to back and side to side as shown below.
NOTE: Diagram represents only a generalized view which may vary depending on the model and operating conditions. Fob type transmitters accommodate a larger transmitter and battery which typically provide increased operating range.
