RFA Operational Range

Remote Function Actuator (RFA) Operational Range

RFA Range Location:

Operational range varies with the orientation of the transmitter. For best performance, hold the transmitter vertically, with the buttons facing you and the bottom cover of the transmitter towards the vehicle. The operational range of the transmitter in the passive mode is considerably less than it is in the manual activation mode. As battery life decreases, so does the maximum operational range of the RFA transmitter. In most cases, the transmitter battery should only be replaced when the operational range has severely decreased. If the transmitter range decreases or the transmitter does not operate, check for the following conditions:
^ Check if battery replacement is necessary
^ Check for proper range (Rainy or snowy weather decreases range)
^ Check for obstructions (other vehicles or objects will decrease range)
^ Electrical interference (cellular phones, power lines, radio towers, garage door openers, etc.)
^ The transmitter is not programmed or synchronized to the vehicle
