Radio Frequency RKE
Transmitter - General
Information
Transmitters and receivers used inside
the vehicle operate on a carrier
frequency of 433.92 MHz as required
by EEC regulations. These devices must
be certified to conform to specific
regulations in each individual country.
Two sets of regulations are involved:
ETS (European Telecommunication
Standard) 300–220, which most
countries use, and German BZT federal
regulation 225Z125, which is based on
ETC 300–220 but has additional unique
requirements. Other defined
requirements are noted in ANNEX VI
of COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 95/56/ EC.
The current device feature is subject to
following conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful
interference.
• This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause
undesired operation.
If your key fob RKE transmitter fails to
operate from a normal distance, check
for these two conditions:
• A weak battery in the key fob RKE
transmitter. The expected life of the
battery in normal use is a minimum
of three years.
• Closeness to a radio transmitter such
as a radio station tower, airport
transmitter, and some mobile or CB
radios.
Remote Start System
(optional)
This system enables the key fob RKE
transmitter to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle
while still maintaining security. The
system has a range of approximately
91 m (300 ft). Obstructions between
the vehicle and the key fob may
reduce this range.
How to use Remote Start
All of the following conditions must be
met before the engine will remote
start:
• System not disabled from previous
remote start event.
• Vehicle theft alarm not active.
• Doors closed.
• Hood closed.
• Liftgate closed.
• Hazard lights switched off.
• Brake pedal not pressed by any
passenger remained in the vehicle.
• Battery at an acceptable charge level.
• The shift lever is in P (Park) position.
• The vehicle transmission is in
automatic mode.
