The operating range differs depending on the user, the way the transmitter is held and the location.
In certain areas, the operating range will be reduced due to the vehicle body shape and the influence of the surrounding environment.
The weak electric waves from the transmitter may be affected if the area has strong electric waves or noise. The operating range of the transmitter may be reduced or the transmitter may not function.
When the battery weakens, the operating range is reduced and the transmitter may not function.
