Intelligent Key button operation
light

The light blinks only when you push any
button on the Intelligent Key. The light illu-
mination only signifies that the key fob has
transmitted a signal. You may look and/or
listen to verify that the vehicle has per-
formed the intended operation. The num-
ber of blinks identifies each registered key
(i.e. 1 blink = 1st key,...,4 blinks = 4th key) for
your own identification purposes. If the
light does not blink, your battery may be
too weak to communicate to the vehicle. If
this occurs, the battery may need to be
replaced. For additional information re-

garding the replacement of a battery, refer
to “Battery replacement” in the “Do-it-
yourself ” section of this manual.

sistance of others or pets unattended
in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside a closed vehicle on a
warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of
injury or death to people and pets.
