4. Operating precautions
Usage Environment
●The remote control signal (or the response signal from the controller) may not
reach the controller (or the remote control)
if there are strong radio waves
transmitting nearby, or if there are obstacles blocking the signal.
● The engine may be slow to start during severe cold weather conditions.
Veh icles with Remote Control Do or Lock Function
●Door Lock and Door Unlock Function by the remote control keyless entry or
advanced keyless entry system equip ped the vehicle can be performed while the
engine is running by the Remote En gine Start .
However, if Door Lock and Do or Unlock Function do not work due to interference
caused by engine noise, etc., perform these Door Lock and Door Unlock
operations on the vehicle remote control, etc. after stop the engine.

Remote Control Handling Instructions
The remote control is a sensitive electronic device similar to a cellular telephone.
Please follow the handling instructions below to avoid damage to or breakdown of
the remote control.
ە Avoid storing or using the remote control in places that expose it to direct
sunlight, places that have high humidity, places with extremely high
temperatures (on top of the dashboard, etc.) or places with extremely low
temperatures (leaving inside the vehicle while parked at ski resorts, etc.).
ە Do not store or use the remote control in places where it comes into direct
contact with water.
ە Avoid exposure to strong impacts such as dropping it on the floor or hitting it
against something hard.
ە If the remote control gets very dirty, use a cloth soaked in a watered-down, mild
or neutral detergent, ring out the liquid solution and wipe down the remote
control. (Never use benzene, thinner or chemically treated cloth/wipes.)
ە Avoid attaching a lot of keys to the key ring on the remote control, or sitting
down while the remote control is in your pocket, as it can cause the remote
control to deform and may result in damage.
ە While carrying the remote control, if the keys, etc., come into contact with a
vehicle, it can lead to remote control breakdown or malfunction due an
electrostatic discharge. Therefore, be careful of this risk during time periods
when electrostatic discharges occur frequently.
ە Be sure that the battery cover and clasp are securely locked. Otherwise, if water
accidently gets inside the internal part of the transmitter, it can cause
breakdown.
ە Do not use in restricted areas such as on board airplanes or inside hospitals.
ە The remote control can negatively impact electronic and medical devices.
ە Be sure to follow the instructions and rules posted inside medical clinics or
facilities regarding the use of electronic devices.
ە If the remote control is used on board airplanes, where usage is restricted, you
may be subject to punishment due to airline rules and regulations.
x Depending on the surroundings and how the remote control is held, the minimum
distance required for the signal transmission varies. Generally, if the remote control is
directed toward the vehicle when transmitting the signal, it should successfully transmit
from far away.
