WARNING
The smart key system uses Radio Frequency (RF) transmissions that could interfere with implanted medical devices. Make sure that any susceptible medical device is kept at a safe distance of at least 9 in (22 cm) away from any transmitter. Maintaining this distance avoids any possibility of interference between the system and the medical device. The RFs and field strengths used by the keyless entry system operate well within required medical standards for radiated emissions. In rare circumstances, interference may cause an implanted medical device to malfunction, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. SMART KEY SYSTEM TRANSMITTERS.

WARNING
To prevent accidental or unauthorized operation, never leave children or animals unattended in the vehicle. The vehicle can be operated when the smart key is inside the vehicle. Unauthorized operation may lead to serious injury or death.

NOTES

The operational range of the smart key varies considerably, depending on atmospheric conditions and interference from other transmitting devices.
If any door, or the tailgate, is unlocked ten times within a short period, the locking latch disables for approximately 1 minute.
A replacement smart key can be obtained only from a retailer/authorized repairer. The retailer/authorized repairer requires proof of identification and ownership. Notify a retailer/authorized repairer immediately if a smart key is lost or stolen.
The security system disarms automatically when the vehicle is unlocked with a smart key. However, if a door is not opened within 40 seconds, the security system re-engages the locks and the alarm re-arms. Automatic re-locking and re-arming is a precautionary action to protect the vehicle when it is unintentionally left unlocked.
The vehicle is supplied with two smart keys. The smart keys act as remote controls for the locking and alarm system. The smart keys allow the vehicle to be locked, unlocked, and driven without the use of a conventional key. Each smart key also has an emergency key housed behind a slide-off cover. See PASSIVE ENTRY, KEYLESS LOCKING and STARTING THE ENGINE.
