Keys
CAUTION:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the ignition

One key is used for the
ignition, the driver's
door and all other locks.
When a new vehicle is delivered, the dealer gives the
first owner a key and a bar coded tag. Both the key
and the tag are attached to a key ring.The paper tag has a code on it that tells your dealer or a
qualified locksmith how to make an extra key. Keep the
bar
-coded tag in a safe place. If you lose your key,
you'll be able to have a new one made easily using this
tag. If your key doesn't have a tag and you need a new
ignition key, go to your dealer for the correct key code.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of features that can
help prevent theft. But you can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle if you ever lock
your key inside. You may even have to damage
your vehicle to get in. So be sure you have an
extra key.
If you ever do get locked out of your vehicle,
call Chevrolet Roadside Assistance. See ªRoadside
Assistanceº in the Index for more information.

Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers -- especially children -- can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is locked,
the handle won't open it. You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in
a crash if the doors aren't locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the doors
whenever you drive.
Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A child
can be overcome by extreme heat and can
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or stop
your vehicle. Locking your doors can help
prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
To lock or unlock the door from the outside, use your
door key on the driver's side or the remote keyless
entry transmitter.
If your theft
-deterrent system is armed, unlock the
driver's door with the key or by using the remote keyless
entry transmitter to open either door to avoid setting off
the alarm. See ªTheft
-Deterrent Systemº in the Index.
To lock the door from the inside, move the lever located
on the door forward. To unlock it, move the lever on the
door rearward.

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 three
transmitters matched to it.
To match transmitters to your vehicle:
1. Turn the ignition key to ON.
2. Clear any warning messages on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) by pressing the
RESET button.
3. Press the OPTIONS button on the DIC several
times until the blank page is displayed, then press
and hold the RESET button for two seconds.4. When the message FOB TRAINING is displayed,
press the RESET button once. The message HOLD
LK + UNLK 1ST FOB in the DIC will be displayed.
5. Press and hold the lock and unlock buttons on the
first transmitter simultaneously for five seconds.
6. When a transmitter is learned (matched), the DIC
will display FOB LEARNED and then prompt you
to learn the second transmitter.
7. Repeat Steps 5 and 6 for the third transmitter.
8. Remove the key from the ignition.
The programming mode will shut off if any of following
has occurred:
You don't program any transmitters for two minutes.
