Remote Key Precautions

~2min read

The remote key will not operate if one of the following conditions occurs:

  • The key is in the ignition switch.
  • You have exceeded the operating range limit (approximately 30 m [90 ft]).
  • The remote key battery is discharged.
  • Other vehicles or objects may block the signal.
  • The weather is very cold.
  • The remote key is near a radio transmitter, such as a radio station or airport, which may interfere with normal remote key operation.

If the remote key does not operate properly, lock and unlock the door using the mechanical key. If you have problems with the remote key, contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

If the remote key is in close proximity to your mobile phone, the signal may be blocked by your mobile phone's normal operating signals.

This is especially important when the phone is in use, such as when sending and receiving calls, sending and receiving text messages, and/or sending and receiving e-mails.

Do not place the remote key and mobile phone in the same pants or jacket pocket, and always keep a sufficient distance between the two devices.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

✽ NOTICE

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
