GENERAL INFORMATION

THE REMOTE FUNCTION ACTUATOR (RFA) SYSTEM IS INTENDED TO BE USED AS A SUPPLEMENTARY VEHICLE ENTRY DEVICE. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO REPLACE, BUT RATHER SHOULD BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH, A DOOR LOCK KEY. THE SYSTEM COULD BE DISABLED DUE TO RADIO FREQUENCY OR LOW TRANSMITTER BATTERY POWER LEVEL. IT IS, THEREFORE, NECESSARY TO ALWAYS MAINTAIN ACCESS TO A DOOR LOCK KEY.

THE REMOTE FUNCTION ACTUATOR IS A FEATURE WHICH ALLOWS FOR OPERATION OF THE DOOR LOCKS, LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT ENTRY, ILLUMINATED ENTRY LIGHTS (IF EQUIPPED) AND PANIC BUTTON.

THE TWO MAIN SYSTEM COMPONENTS ARE THE TRANSMITTERS AND REMOTE FUNCTION ACTUATOR MODULE. THE TRANSMITTER UNIT SENDS A DIGITALLY ENCODED RADIO SIGNAL TO THE RFA MODULE IN RESPONSE TO A BUTTON ON THE TRANSMITTER BEING PRESSED BY THE VEHICLE OPERATOR. THE RFA MODULE INTERPRETS THE SIGNAL AND ACTIVATES THE REQUIRED CIRCUITRY TO PROVIDE THE REQUESTED FUNCTION.

SYSTEM COMPONENTS =================

TRANSMITTERS (FOB)

FIGURE 1

THE TRANSMITTER UNIT IS A BATTERY POWERED, WATER RESISTANT, RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNAL GENERATOR. TWO TRANSMITTERS ARE PROVIDED WITH THE VEHICLE, AND EACH IS UNIQUELY RECOGNIZED BY THE RFA MODULE. THE MODULE IS CAPABLE OF RECOGNIZING UP TO FOUR TRANSMITTERS. REPLACEMENT TRANSMITTERS FOR THE VEHICLE MAY BE OBTAINED; HOWEVER, THE RFA MODULE MUST BE REPROGRAMMED TO ACCEPT THE NEW TRANSMITTER.

REPROGRAMMING THE RFA MODULE IS COVERED IN "ON-VEHICLE SERVICE" IN THIS SECTION.

THE RFA SYSTEM CAN EXECUTE THE FOLLOWING FUNCTIONS IN RESPONSE TO THE VEHICLE OPERATOR PRESSING A TRANSMITTER BUTTON (THE TRANSMITTER RANGE IS APPROXIMATELY 10 METERS {30 FEET}), THE TRANSMITTER SHOULD BE USED WITHIN THIS RANGE FOR CONSISTENT OPERATION).

O PRESSING THE UNLOCK BUTTON ONCE UNLOCKS THE DRIVER'S DOOR AND TURNS ON THE INTERIOR LAMPS IF THE IGNITION IS OFF.

O PRESSING THE UNLOCK BUTTON A SECOND TIME WITHIN FIVE SECONDS UNLOCKS ALL DOORS AND TURNS ON THE INTERIOR LAMPS IF THE IGNITION IS OFF.

O PRESSING THE LOCK BUTTON LOCKS ALL DOORS.

O PRESSING THE TRUNK BUTTON OPENS THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT.

O PRESSING THE PANIC BUTTON SOUNDS THE HORN AND FLASHES LIGHTS FOR UP TO 2 MINUTES. IT CAN BE DEACTIVATED BY PRESSING THE TRANSMITTER BUTTON, UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE WITH A KEY (IF VEHICLE HAS UA6) OR TURNING ON THE IGNITION.

THE RFA SYSTEM TRANSMITTERS REQUIRE PERIODIC BATTERY REPLACEMENT. BATTERY LIFE UNDER NORMAL OPERATION SHOULD BE APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS. THE BACK SIDE OF THE TRANSMITTER CAN BE REMOVED TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO THE BATTERY. REFER TO "ON-VEHICLE SERVICE" IN THIS SECTION FOR TRANSMITTER BATTERY REPLACEMENT.

REMOTE FUNCTION ACTUATOR (RFA) MODULE

THE RFA MODULE IS LOCATED UNDER THE I/P ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE MODULE RECEIVES AND INTERPRETS THE TRANSMITTER SIGNALS, THEN ACTIVATES THE REQUIRED CIRCUITRY TO PROVIDE THE REQUESTED FUNCTION. THE RFA MODULE IS ABLE TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE VARIOUS TRANSMITTERS, AND MUST BE REPROGRAMMED TO ACCEPT SIGNALS FROM ALL TRANSMITTERS IF ANY TRANSMITTERS ARE REPLACED. FOR RFA MODULE REPROGRAMMING, REFER TO "ON-VEHICLE SERVICE" IN THIS SECTION.

DIAGNOSIS

REFER TO SECTION 8A-132 FOR DIAGNOSIS AND ELECTRICAL DIAGRAMS.

SYSTEM OPERATION ================

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY

O TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN IF IGNITION IS ON AND VEHICLE IS NOT IN PARK (P).

O COURTESY LIGHTS WILL TURN ON FOR 40 SECONDS OR UNTIL DOOR IS OPENED OR LOCK SWITCH PRESSED OR UNLOCK IS PRESSED.

O COURTESY LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN ON WHEN TRUNK IS PRESSED.

LOCK-OUT PREVENTION

THE POWER DOOR LOCK SWITCHES WILL BE DISABLED WHENEVER THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION AND THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS OPEN. THIS FEATURE CAN BE OVERRIDDEN BY PRESSING THE POWER DOOR LOCK SWITCH FOR GREATER THAN 3 SECONDS.

AUTO DOOR LOCKS (ADL)

THE AUTO DOOR LOCK FEATURE IS PROGRAMMABLE BY THE OWNER FOR 4 DIFFERENT LOCK AND UNLOCK MODES.

- ADL MODE 0 - NO AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK OR UNLOCK. - ADL MODE 1 - AUTOMATIC ALL DOOR LOCK WHEN TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED OUT OF PARK, BUT NO AUTOMATIC DOOR UNLOCK. - ADL MODE 2 - AUTOMATIC ALL DOOR LOCK WHEN TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED OUT OF PARK. AUTOMATIC DRIVER DOOR UNLOCK WHEN TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO PARK. - ADL MODE 3 - AUTOMATIC ALL DOOR LOCK WHEN TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED OUT OF PARK. AUTOMATIC ALL DOOR UNLOCK WHEN TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO PARK.

WITH THE IGNITION ON, VEHICLE IN PARK (P) AND ALL DOORS CLOSED, PRESS AND HOLD THE DOOR LOCK SWITCH IN THE LOCK POSITION. WHILE HOLDING THE DOOR LOCK SWITCH, PRESS THE LOCK BUTTON ON THE CUSTOMER'S TRANSMITTER. AFTER INITIAL ACTIVATION OF THE TRANSMITTER LOCK BUTTON, EACH ADDITIONAL ACTIVATION WILL INCREMENT THE ADL MODE BY ONE, STARTING FROM THE CURRENT ADL MODE. IF CYCLED BEYOND ADL MODE 3, THE RFA SHALL ENTER MODE 0. DURING THIS CUSTOMIZATION PROCEDURE, THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK AND UNLOCK SHALL OPERATE AS DEFINED, PROVIDING THE CUSTOMER WITH FEEDBACK OF THE CURRENT ADL MODE. WHEN THE DOOR LOCK SWITCH IS RELEASED, THE RFA SHALL REMAIN IN THE RECENT ADL MODE. SINCE MODE 0 HAS NO ADL FUNCTIONS, NO FEEDBACK IS PROVIDED.

WHILE IN THE CUSTOMIZATION PROCEDURE, IF IGNITION VOLTAGE IS LOST OR ANY DOOR IS OPENED, THE ADL PROCEDURE SHALL BE TERMINATED AND THE RFA SYSTEM SHALL REMAIN IN THE MOST RECENT MODE.

DELAYED LOCKING

IMPORTANT:

THE DELAYED LOCKING FEATURE MUST BE INITIALLY ENABLED WITH THE TECH 1 OR TECH 2 TO HAVE ACCESS TO THIS FEATURE. THE RFA MODULE SOFTWARE FOR THE FEATURE IS TURNED OFF ON ALL NEW VEHICLES AND SERVICE REPLACEMENT PARTS. USE THE PROCEDURE BELOW TO PERFORM INITIAL ACTIVATION OF DELAYED LOCKING.

1. CONNECT TECH 1. 2. SELECT VEHICLE BEING PROGRAMMED. 3. SELECT "BODY". 4. SELECT "RFA". 5. SELECT "RFA TEST". 6. SELECT "SET OPTIONS". 7. SELECT "OPTIONS 0".

IMPORTANT:

O FOLLOW SCREEN PROMPTS AND INSTRUCTIONS. O DURING STEP 8, USE THE EXIT KEY TO CHANGE FROM ONE FUNCTION SCREEN TO ANOTHER. DO NOT USE THE YES OR NO KEYS. IF YES OR NO IS PRESSED, OTHER FEATURES MAY BECOME DISABLED.

8. SCROLL THROUGH SCREENS UNTIL DELAYED LOCKING IS DISPLAYED, SELECT (YES). 9. EXIT SYSTEM. 10. DISCONNECT TECH 1. 11. ACTIVATE DELAYED LOCKING FEATURE BY USING THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE:

THIS FEATURE ALLOWS THE DRIVER TO DELAY THE LOCKING OF THE VEHICLE AFTER THE LOCK SWITCH HAS BEEN ACTIVATED. UPON ACTIVATING THE LOCK SWITCH WITH THE DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN, A CHIME WILL SOUND TO LET THE DRIVER KNOW THAT THEY ARE IN THE DELAYED LOCKING MODE. AFTER ALL DOORS HAVE BEEN CLOSED FOR 5 SECONDS, THEY WILL LOCK AUTOMATICALLY. OPENING ANY DOOR BEFORE THE 5 SECONDS HAVE ELAPSED WILL CAUSE THE TIMER TO RESET ONCE ALL DOORS ARE AGAIN CLOSED. THIS FEATURE CAN BE PROGRAMMED ON OR OFF FOR EACH TRANSMITTER.

TO TURN DELAYED LOCKING FEATURE OFF (IF CURRENTLY ENABLED)

O HOLD LOCK SWITCH ON. O PRESS TRANSMITTER UNLOCK BUTTON, ALL DOORS UNLOCK, DELAYED LOCKING REMAINS ENABLED. O PRESS TRANSMITTER UNLOCK AGAIN, ALL DOORS LOCK, DELAYED LOCKING IS DISABLED.

TO TURN DELAYED LOCKING FEATURE ON (IF CURRENTLY DISABLED)

O HOLD LOCK SWITCH ON. O PRESS TRANSMITTER UNLOCK BUTTON, ALL DOORS LOCK, DELAYED LOCKING REMAINS DISABLED. O PRESS TRANSMITTER UNLOCK AGAIN, ALL DOORS UNLOCK, DELAYED LOCKING IS ENABLED.

MEMORY SEATS AND MIRRORS

EACH TRANSMITTER CAN BE PROGRAMMED TO ALLOW MEMORY SEAT AND MIRRORS TO ACTIVATE:

O MEMORY POSITION #1 O MEMORY POSITION #2 O EXIT POSITION O TURN OFF FEATURE

TO PROGRAM THE SYSTEM, PERFORM THE FOLLOWING STEPS:

1. SET THE SEAT AND MIRRORS TO A COMFORTABLE POSITION. 2. PRESS THE SET BUTTON ON THE MEMORY SEAT CONTROLS (YOU WILL HEAR A SINGLE BEEP). 3. PRESS THE DESIRED POSITION WITHIN 5 SECONDS (POSITION #1, #2, OR EXIT) (YOU WILL HEAR A SINGLE BEEP). 4. PRESS THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE APPROPRIATE TRANSMITTER WITHIN 5 SECONDS (YOU WILL HEAR 2 BEEPS).

TO TURN OFF THE FEATURE, SKIP STEP 3.

ONCE A TRANSMITTER HAS BEEN PROGRAMMED TO THE SELECTED POSITIONS, ANY CHANGES TO THOSE POSITIONS WILL REQUIRE UPDATING THE SEAT FUNCTION (STEPS 2 AND 3).

REMOTE ACTIVATION VERIFICATION (RAV)

THIS ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO THE DRIVER THAT THE VEHICLE HAS RECEIVED THE COMMAND FROM THE TRANSMITTER. THE FOLLOWING MODES MAY BE SELECTED BY THE DRIVER:

MODE UNLOCK VEHICLE LOCK VEHICLE ==== ============== ============

0 TURN FEATURE OFF

1 FLASH EXTERIOR LIGHTS NO FEEDBACK

2 NO FEEDBACK FLASH EXTERIOR LIGHTS

3 FLASH EXTERIOR LIGHTS FLASH EXTERIOR LIGHTS

4 NO FEEDBACK FLASH EXTERIOR LIGHTS AND CHIRP HORN

PERSONALIZATION

THIS ALLOWS THE DRIVER TO SELECT THE AUTO DOOR LOCK PREFERENCE AND THE RAV PREFERENCE TO BE UNIQUE TO EACH DRIVER. UPON UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE WITH THE APPROPRIATE TRANSMITTER, THE VEHICLE FEEDBACK AND AUTO DOOR LOCK MODES WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY CHANGED TO THAT DRIVER'S PREFERENCES. THE SYSTEM CAN ALSO COMMUNICATE WITH THE MEMORY SEAT SYSTEM SO THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT POSITION AND OUTSIDE MIRRORS ARE IN THE PROPER POSITION PRIOR TO THE DRIVER ENTERING THE VEHICLE.

PERIMETER LIGHTING

THIS FEATURE CAUSES THE HEADLAMPS, PARKLAMPS, BACKUP LAMPS, AND BOTH CORNERING LAMPS TO ILLUMINATE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS UNLOCKED WITH THE TRANSMITTER. THE PERIMETER LIGHTING FEATURE WILL ONLY BE ACTIVATED IF IT IS DARK OUTSIDE (PER TWILIGHT SENTINEL SYSTEM). THIS WILL PROVIDE A WELL LIGHTED AREA AROUND THE COMPLETE VEHICLE FOR PERSONAL SECURITY.

THIS FEATURE CAN BE PROGRAMMED ON OR OFF FOR EACH TRANSMITTER. TO PROGRAM, USE THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE.

TO TURN OFF (IF CURRENTLY ENABLED)

O HOLD LOCK SWITCH DOWN - DOORS LOCK. O PRESS PANIC BUTTON - PERIMETER LIGHTING REMAINS ENABLED, HORN CHIRPS 2 TIMES. O PRESS PANIC BUTTON - PERIMETER LIGHTING REMAINS DISABLED, HORN CHIRPS 1 TIME. O RELEASE LOCK SWITCH - CUSTOMIZATION COMPLETED, PERIMETER LIGHTING OFF.

TO TURN ON (IF CURRENTLY DISABLED)

O HOLD LOCK SWITCH DOWN - DOORS LOCK. O PRESS PANIC BUTTON - PERIMETER LIGHTING REMAINS DISABLED, HORN CHIRPS 1 TIME. O PRESS PANIC BUTTON - PERIMETER LIGHTING REMAINS ENABLED, HORN CHIRPS 2 TIMES. O RELEASE LOCK SWITCH - CUSTOMIZATION COMPLETED, PERIMETER LIGHTING ON.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE ==================

RESYNCHRONIZING TRANSMITTERS

IF A TRANSMITTER DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK ANYMORE, AND YOU ARE SURE THE BATTERY IS GOOD, TRY THE PANIC BUTTON. IF THE PANIC BUTTON DOES NOT WORK, THE TRANSMITTER IS BAD. HOWEVER, IF THE PANIC BUTTON DOES BEEP THE HORN AND FLASH THE LIGHTS, THE TRANSMITTER IS OUT OF SYNC. WITH THE RFA SYSTEM, THERE ARE TWO WAYS A TRANSMITTER CAN GET OUT OF SYNC: CHANGING THE TRANSMITTER'S BATTERY, AND PRESSING THE TRANSMITTER BUTTONS TOO MANY TIMES WHILE OUT OF RANGE OF THE VEHICLE.

TO RESYNC THE TRANSMITTERS, DO NOT JUMPER THE DLC. PRESS AND HOLD THE LOCK AND UNLOCK BUTTONS FOR ABOUT 8 SECONDS UNTIL THE HORN CHIRPS AND THE LIGHTS FLASH. THE TRANSMITTER IS NOW SYNCHRONIZED.
