Key range
In order to function correctly, the key must be within a certain distance from the vehicle.
Physical barriers between the key and the vehicle may adversely affect the range or obstruct the signal completely.
When using the key buttons
The key's functions that are controlled by the buttons have a range of about 20 meters (65 feet) from the vehicle.
If the vehicle's locks do not react, move closer and try again.
