CAUTION

designed to lock or unlock all the side

doors and back door, or activate the

“PANIC” mode from a distance within

approximately 1 m (3 ft.) of the vehicle.

Before driving, be sure that the doors

are closed and locked, especially

when small children are in the ve-

hicle. Along with the proper use of

seat belts, locking the doors helps

prevent the driver and passengers

from being thrown out from the ve-

prevent the doors from being opened

unintentionally.

securely closed, or if the key is in the
