Functional check
When the ignition is switched on,
the control light will illuminate for
approximately three seconds to
indicate that the system is
operating correctly.
If the control light flashes rapidly
for approximately one minute and
then repeatedly at irregular
intervals, the system did not
recognize the key code. Remove
the key and try again.
If the control light illuminates
continuously for approximately
one minute and then flashes
repeatedly at irregular intervals, a
system malfunction has occurred.
Have the malfunction repaired by
your dealer or a qualified
technician as soon as possible.
To ensure a trouble-free exchange
between vehicle and key, do not
shield the keys with any metal
objects.
