Fault
If the central locking system cannot be
operated with the radio remote control, it
may be due to the following:
z The range of the radio remote control
has been exceeded.
z Radio remote control battery voltage is
too low. Battery replacement - see next
page.
z Frequent, repeated operation of the
radio remote control outside the
reception range of the vehicle (e.g. too
far from vehicle, remote control is then
no longer recognised). Remote control
synchronisation - see next page.
z If the central locking system is
overloaded as a result of repeated
operation at short intervals. The power
supply is cut off for a brief period.
z Interference from higher-power radio
waves from other sources.
To eliminate the cause of the fault, contact
your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
