If your vehicle is left standing for a long period
of time, note the following:
- The proximity sensor switches off after a
few days to save energy. You then have to
pull once on the door handle to unlock the
vehicle and a second time to open it.
- The energy management system gradually
turns off unnecessary convenience functions
to prevent the vehicle battery from draining
and to maintain the vehicle's ability to start
for as long as possible. You may not be able
to unlock your vehicle using the convenience
key.

FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations.
