purposes during subsequentBluetoothconnections between the two
devices.

(sometimes referred to as a passkey) will be shown in the radio display
during the pairing process with yourBluetoothenabled device. You do
not need to write down this number as it will only be used for that

KEYS
Integrated keyhead transmitters (IKTs) (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
two integrated keyhead transmitters
(IKTs). The key blade is used to
start the vehicle and unlock/lock the
driver’s door from outside the
vehicle. The transmitter portion
functions as the remote entry
transmitter.
Your IKTs are programmed to your
vehicle; using a non-programmed
key will not permit your vehicle to start. If you lose one or both of your
IKTs, replacements are available through your authorized dealer.
Standard SecuriLockkeys without remote entry transmitter
functionality can also be purchased from your authorized dealer if
desired.
Always carry a spare key with you in case of an emergency.
For more information regarding programming replacement IKTs, refer to
theSecuriLockpassive anti-theft systemsection later in this chapter.
Note:Your vehicle’s IKTs were
issued with a security label that
provides important vehicle key cut
information. It is recommended that
you keep the label in a safe place
for future reference.
