The front interior, rear interior, left/right-front, trunk, and rear bumper LF antennas send the signals to the remote inside and outside of the vehicle.

Door Touch Sensors and Outer Handle Lock Switches 

The door touch sensors are built in the each door outer handles, also the outer handle lock switches are built in the driver's and front passenger's door outer handles. To operate the door locks without the built-in key while carrying the remote, grip the door outer handle to unlock the doors and press the outer handle lock switch on the door outer handle to lock the doors.

Remote 

The remote is equipped with a keyless transmitter, and all the doors can be locked and unlocked by a lock/unlock button operation, even from a remote distance from the vehicle.
