The remote control has an operating
range of approximately 50 ft (15 meters).
This can fluctuate greatly as a
consequence of local conditions
(reflective or absorbing objects) and
interference emitted by other radio
transmission systems. Similarly, the
operating range fluctuates in line with
the direction from which the remote
control is activated.
To prevent theft, however, it is advisable
to only unlock the vehicle when you are
in close proximity to it.
