[ Notes on over-the-air (OTA) update ]

  1. 1. If the battery has been removed and then attached, you can update the vehicle after turning off the ignition, disconnecting the power from the additionally installed dash cam, etc., and parking for more than 4 hours.
  2. 2. If any product is connected to the vehicle OBD terminal, the update function will not work due to interference in the vehicle internal communication.
    After disconnecting the device from the vehicle OBD terminal, turn on the engine and wait for at least 5 minutes, then turn off the engine.
    (Do not connect any device to the OBD terminal during the wireless update.)


We hope the Digital Key 2, Built-in Cam update will make your driving experience more convenient and safer!

Thank you.
