Operation Check

DOOR LOCK: WIRELESS DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM: OPERATION CHECK

1. NOTICE WHEN CHECKING THE FOLLOWING

(a) This wireless door lock control function operates only when the following 3 conditions are met:

(1) There is no key in the ignition key cylinder.

(2) All doors are closed.

(3) The power door lock system is operating normally.

HINT
The unlock function operates even when a door is open.

(b) The size of the wireless door lock control operational area differs depending on the situation.

(1) The size of the operation area differs depending on the user and the way the transmitter is held.

(2) In certain areas, the remote control function will only operate partially for the operational area, which will be reduced due to the vehicle body shape and the influence of the surrounding environment.

(3) Since the transmitter uses weak radio waves, strong radio waves or electrical noise in the frequency used by the transmitter may reduce the size of the operational area and the remote control may not function.

(4) When the transmitter battery is weak, the size of the operational area is reduced and the remote control may not function.

HINT
If the door control transmitter has been left in a place that is exposed to direct sunlight, such as on the instrument panel, it may cause the battery to be weakened or cause other related problems.
