HONDA 2003 Civic Hybrid - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 86)

CONTINUED
Your car comes with two master
keys and a valet key.
These keys contain electronic
circuits that are activated by the
Immobilizer System. They will not
work to start the engine if the
circuits are damaged.
Protect the keys from direct
sunlight, high temperature, and
high humidity.
The keys do not contain batteries.
Do not try to take them apart.
Keep the keys away from liquids.
If they get wet, dry them immedi-
ately with a soft cloth.
Do not drop the keys or set heavy
objects on them.
The master key fits all the locks on
your car:
• Ignition
• Doors
• Trunk
• Trunk release handle
The valet key works only in the
ignition and the door locks. You can
keep the trunk, and trunk release
handle locked when you leave your
car and the valet key at a parking
facility. (See Trunk, page
.)
You should have received a key
number plate with your set of keys.
You will need this key number if you
ever have to get a lost key replaced.
Keep the plate stored in a safe place.
When replacing keys, use only
Honda-approved key blanks.
