Other vehicles parked next to your
vehicle.

Other short distance radio transmissions,
for example amateur radios, medical

the radio frequency used by your remote
control. If the frequencies are jammed, you
will not be able to use your remote control.
You can lock and unlock the doors with the
key.

Note: Make sure to lock your vehicle before
leaving it unattended.
