Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and unlock
your doors from about 3 feet (1 m) up to 30 feet
(9 m) away using the remote keyless entry transmitter
supplied with your vehicle.
K(Unlock):When you
press unlock, the driver's
door will unlock
automatically, the parking
lamps may ¯ash and
the interior lights will go on.
Press the unlock button
twice to unlock all
doors and the tailgate.
You can program different feedback settings through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). For more information
see
Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 3-46.
Q(Lock):Press lock to lock all the doors. Press lock
again within three seconds and the horn will chirp.
L(Panic):Press the horn symbol to make the horn
sound. The headlamps and taillamps will ¯ash for up to
30 seconds. This can be turned off by pressing the
horn button again, by waiting for 30 seconds, or
by starting the vehicle.
m(Tailgate Glass):Press the window button twice to

Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring
any remaining transmitters with you when you go to
your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four
transmitters matched to it.

Midgate
{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the cargo
area covered and the tailgate and the midgate
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can not see or
smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness and
even death. If you must drive with the tailgate
and midgate open or if electrical wiring or
other cable connections must pass through
the seal between the body and the midgate:
·Make sure all windows are shut.
·Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the
setting on OUTSIDE AIR. That will force
outside air into your vehicle. See
Dual
Climate Control System on page 3-20.
·If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See
Engine Exhaust on page 2-39.
Midgate
Your vehicle is equipped with a midgate and power
midgate glass. The midgate allows you to extend the
length of your vehicle's cargo area.
Lowering the Midgate
The midgate can be lowered to allow the cargo area of
your vehicle to extend into the cab. The midgate
cannot be lowered when the glass is up.
To lower the midgate, do the following:
1. Fold and tumble the rear seats. The front seats
might have to be moved forward slightly to allow
the rear seats to fold and tumble. See
Rear
Seat Operation on page 1-7for more information.
2.
C:Press this overhead console button to lower
the midgate glass with the key in the ignition.
The midgate can be lowered without the key in the
ignition if the midgate glass is already down.
3. Clip the second row seat belts into the retainers.
They are mounted on the pillars below where the
seat belt passes through the trim panel. This
prevents the seat belt from being tangled in the
midgate when opening or closing the midgate.

be fully latched on both sides before the midgate
glass can be raised.

Your vehicle is equipped with a tailgate which can be
swung out or opened ¯at. It can be locked and unlocked
with the driver or passenger door power lock button
or the remote keyless entry transmitter. The tailgate has
power rear glass. The glass must be fully lowered to
open the tailgate to its ¯at position.
The power roof and tailgate must both be fully closed to
raise the rear glass. If the roof or tailgate are not fully
