3. To program your keyless entry transmitter, press the
UNLOCK button within five seconds of
programming the memory button. You will hear a
chime to confirm programming of the transmitter.
When your vehicle is in PARK (P), push and release the
numbered memory button you just stored. The seat will

to the other numbered memory button.
If there is a third driver, use the seat adjuster switch to
adjust the seat.
Pressing any of the seat adjuster switches, the SET
button or pressing the desired memory button twice will
cause the seat to stop moving. If you push the numbered
button to adjust the seat and start the vehicle while the
seat is still adjusting, adjustment will pause while the
ignition is in START. Adjustment will resume after the
ignition is in RUN.Heated Front Seats

Ensure the shift lever is fully in PARK (P) before
starting the engine. Your vehicle has a
Brake
-Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI). You have to
fully apply your regular brakes before you can shift
from PARK (P) when the ignition key is in RUN. If you
cannot shift out of PARK (P), ease pressure on the shift
lever
-- press the button on the shift lever and push the
shift lever all the way into PARK (P) as you maintain
brake application. Then move the shift lever into the
gear you wish. See ªShifting Out of PARK (P)º in
the Index.
REVERSE (R): Use this gear to back up.
NOTICE:
Shifting to REVERSE (R) while your vehicle is
moving forward could damage your
transmission. Shift to REVERSE (R) only after
your vehicle is stopped.
To rock your vehicle back and forth to get out of snow,
ice or sand without damaging your transmission, see
ªStuck In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snowº in the Index.NEUTRAL (N): In this position, your engine doesn't
connect with the wheels. To restart when you're already
moving, use NEUTRAL (N) only.
CAUTION:
Shifting out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) while
your engine is ªracingº (running at high speed) is
dangerous. Unless your foot is firmly on the
brake pedal, your vehicle could move very
rapidly. You could lose control and hit people or
objects. Don't shift out of PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N) while your engine is racing.
NOTICE:
Damage to your transmission caused by shifting
out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) with the
engine racing isn't covered by your warranty.

4. Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash rapidly. The rapid
flashing indicates that the universal transmitter has
been programmed. Release both buttons once the
light starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the battery in the
hand
-held transmitter is not dead. If you still cannot
program it, rotate the hand
-held transmitter end over end
and try again. The universal transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot
program the transmitter after repeated attempts, refer to
ªTraining a Garage Door Opener with Rolling Codesº
later in this section or contact the manufacturer of the
unit at 1
-800-355-3515.
Be sure to keep the original hand
-held transmitter in case
you need to erase and reprogram the universal transmitter.
Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, the
hand
-held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after one or two seconds. In this case, you
should press and re
-press the button on the hand-held
transmitter every two seconds without ever releasing the
button on the universal transmitter. Release both buttons
when the indicator light on the universal transmitter
begins to flash rapidly.
Operating the Transmitter
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The indicator light comes on while the
signal is being transmitted.
If the hand
-held transmitter appears to program the
universal transmitter but does not open your garage
door, and if the garage door opener was manufactured
after 1996, the garage door opener may have a ªrolling
codeº system. A rolling code system changes the code
of the garage door opener every time you open or close
the garage door.
To determine if you have this system, press the button
on the universal transmitter that you have programmed
already. If the indicator light flashes rapidly for one to
two seconds, then turns solid, the garage door opener
has a rolling code system. In a rolling code system, the
garage door motor head unit must be trained to the
universal transmitter.

AM-FM: While in the CD mode, press this button to
stop playing the CD and play the radio. The CD symbol
will still display but the word CD will be replaced with
either AM, FM1 or FM2. (If the radio is turned off, the
disc stays in the player and will resume playing at the
point where it stopped.)
CD AUX: Press this button if you have a disc loaded in
the CD player and the radio is turned on, to play a
compact disc. Press AM
-FM to return to the radio when
a compact disc is playing. Press CD AUX to switch
between the compact disc player and console
-mounted
CD changer if both are loaded. When a disc is playing,
the letters CD and the CD symbol will appear on the
display. (If the radio is turned off, the disc stays in the
player and will resume playing at the point where
it stopped.)
EJECT: Press this button to eject the disc from the
player and play the radio. When the same or a new disc
is inserted, the disc will start playing on track one. If a
compact disc is left sitting in the opening for more than
a few seconds, the player will pull the CD back in. The
radio will continue playing. When the ignition is off,
press this button to load a CD.
Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to any
of the music sources including AM
-FM, cassette tapes
and CDs. However, the rear seat passengers can only
control the music sources that the front seat passengers
are not listening to. For example, rear seat passengers
may listen to a cassette tape through headphones while
the driver listens to the radio through the front speakers.

Tow/Haul Mode
The Tow/Haul Mode is a feature that assists when
pulling a heavy trailer. The purpose of the Tow/Haul
Mode is:

Reduce the frequency of shifts when pulling a
heavy trailer.

Provide the same shift feel when pulling a heavy
trailer as when the vehicle is unloaded.

Reduce the need to change throttle positions when
pulling a heavy trailer.
This feature is turned on or off by pressing a button on
the shift lever. When the feature is on, a light on the
instrument panel will illuminate to indicate that the
Tow/Haul Mode has been selected. See ªTow/Haul
Mode Lightº in the Index. The Tow/Haul Mode is
automatically turned off each time the vehicle is started.
The Tow/Haul Mode is most effective when the vehicle
and trailer combined weight is at least 75% of the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and the maximum
trailer weight rating for the vehicle. See ªGross Vehicle
Weight Ratingº and ªTrailer Weightº in the Index.The Tow/Haul Mode for hauling a heavy trailer is most
useful under the following conditions:

When driving through hilly terrain at high speeds
below 55 mph (88 km/h).

When driving in low speed or stop and go traffic
below 55 mph (88 km/h).

When driving in parking lots.
Use the Tow/Haul Mode instead of the previous
recommendation to shift to THIRD (3) to improve fuel
economy at highway speeds and shift performance at
lower speeds. Operating in the Tow/Haul Mode when
not pulling a heavy trailer will not cause damage to the
vehicle, but you may experience reduced fuel economy
and undesirable performance from the engine and
transmission. The Tow/Haul Mode should be used only
when pulling a heavy trailer.
