General Information
This transmitter complies with FCC rules part 15. Opera-
tion is subject to the following conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference that may be
received, including interference that may cause undes-
ired operation.
If your Remote Keyless Entry transmitter ever fails to
operate from a normal distance, check the following:
1. Closeness to a radio transmitter, such as a radio station
tower, airport transmitter, and some mobile or CB radios
can affect transmitter operation. To verify if this is the
cause, move the vehicle to another area and test trans-
mitter operation.
2. The transmitter may become “out of sync” and will no
longer function if operated more than 255 times while out
of range of the vehicle (23 feet or 7 meters) or if operated
while the vehicle battery is dead or disconnected. To
“synchronize” the transmitter, remove the key from the
ignition. Close the hood and all doors. Press both buttons
on the transmitter for about 10 seconds. The horn will
chirp once to acknowledge the signal. Normal transmit-
ter operation should resume.
3. The transmitter battery may be weak or dead. The
expected life of the battery is a minimum of three years.
