Page 151
You should have received a key
number tag with your key. You will
need this key number if you ever
have to get a lost key replaced. Use
only an Acura-approved key blank.
Do not drop the keys or set heavy
objects on them.
Protect the key from direct
sunlight, high temperature, and
high humidity.
Keep the keys away from liquids.
If they get wet, dry them
immediately with a soft cloth.
These keys contain electronic
circuits that are activated by the
immobilizer system. They will not
work to start the engine if the
circuits are damaged.
The valet key does not contain a
battery. Do not try to take it apart.
The valet key works only in the
ignition and the driver’s door lock.
You can keep the trunk pass-through
cover and the glove box locked when
you leave your vehicle and the valet
key at a parking facility.
The master key fits all the locks on
your vehicle.
