There is one
double-sided key
for the ignition, and
driver’s door lock.
When a new vehicle is delivered, the dealer
provides the owner with a pair of identical keys
and a key code number.
The key code number tells your dealer or a
qualied locksmith how to make extra keys. Keep
this number in a safe place. If you lose your
keys, you will be able to have new ones made
easily using this number. Your dealer should also
have this number.
Notice:If you ever lock your keys in your
vehicle, you may have to damage the vehicle
to get in. Be sure you have spare keys.If you ever do get locked out of your vehicle call
the GM Roadside Assistance Center. See
Roadside Assistance Program on page 454.

Changes or modications to this system by other
than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
At times you may notice a decrease in operating
range. This is normal for any RKE system. If
the transmitter does not work or if you have to
stand closer to your vehicle for the transmitter to
work, try this:
Check the distance. You may be too far from
your vehicle. You may need to stand closer
during rainy or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects
may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps
to the left or right, hold the transmitter
higher, and try again.
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See “Battery Replacement”
underRemote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 89.
If you are still having trouble, see your dealer
or a qualied technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation
You can lock and unlock the vehicle’s doors and
disarm or arm the theft-deterrent system from
about 3 feet (1 m) up to 30 feet (9 m) away using
the remote keyless entry transmitter. See
Content Theft-Deterrent on page 98for additional
information.
UNLOCK:Press this
button to unlock the
driver’s door and turn on
the interior lamps.
The parking lamps may
also ash, and the
horn may chirp, when
this button is pressed.
Press the unlock button again within
three seconds and all of the doors will unlock.
89

LOCK:Press this button to lock all the doors. The
parking lamps may also ash and the horn may
chirp when this button is pressed.
If a door is open or ajar when the lock button is
pressed, the doors will lock, but the theft-deterrent
system will not arm until the open door is closed.
You can program different feedback modes
through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
To program the feedback modes, see “Remote
Keyless Entry Feedback” underDIC Controls and
Displays on page 192.
L(Panic):Press this button to make the horn
sound and the headlamps and taillamps ash
for up to 30 seconds. To turn them off, do one of
these three things: wait for 30 seconds; press
the panic button again; or start the vehicle.
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.
90

Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in the remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter
will not work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it is probably time to change
the battery.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry. Static
from your body transferred to these surfaces
may damage the transmitter.To replace the battery, do the following:
1. Insert a coin, or similar object, in the slot
between the covers of the transmitter
housing. Gently pry the transmitter apart.
2. Remove and replace the battery with a
three-volt CR2032 or equivalent battery.
3. Align the covers and snap them together.
4. Check the operation of the transmitter.

There are several ways to lock and unlock your
vehicle.
From the outside, use the key in the driver’s door
or use the remote keyless entry transmitter.

Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some
cities. Although your vehicle has a number of
theft-deterrent features, we know that nothing we
put on it can make it impossible to steal.
Content Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle has a
content theft-deterrent
alarm system.To activate the content theft-deterrent system, do
the following:
1. Close all the doors.
2. Lock the doors with the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The security light, located on the
instrument panel cluster, will ash.
If the lock button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter is pressed, but a door is open,
the doors will lock, the lights may ash and the
horn may sound. Close the open door and
the alarm system will arm.
If a locked door is not opened using the remote
keyless entry transmitter, or by OnStar
®, the alarm
will go off. First, a pre-alarm will sound the horn
at reduced intensity for 10 seconds. Then, the front
turn signal lamps will ash for two minutes, and
the horn will sound for two minutes. The alarm will
then turn off to save battery power.
Starting the engine with the correct key will shut
off the pre-alarm or alarm at any time.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system will not
activate if you lock the doors with the key,
the manual door lock, or power door lock switch.
98

The system can only be activated using the
remote keyless entry transmitter, or by OnStar®.
SeeOnStar®System on page 129for additional
information. You should also remember that
you can start your vehicle with the correct key if
the alarm has been set off.
Here is how to avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:
If you do not want to arm the theft-deterrent
system, the vehicle should be locked with
the manual door lock lever, the power
door lock switch, or the key, after the doors
are closed.
If the content theft-deterrent system is armed,
unlock the doors by pressing the unlock
button on the remote keyless entry transmitter
or by OnStar
®. Unlocking a door any other
way will activate the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident, you can turn it
off by pressing unlock on the remote keyless
entry transmitter, starting the vehicle with
the correct key, or by having OnStar
®unlock the
doors. The alarm will not stop if you try to
unlock a door any other way.
Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, activate the system
by locking the doors with the remote keyless
entry transmitter.
2. Unlock the door with the manual door lock
and open the door. This should set off the
pre-alarm. Wait 10 seconds for the full alarm
to activate.
3. To turn the alarm off, press the unlock button
on the remote keyless entry transmitter or
start the engine.
If the alarm does not sound when it should but the
lights ash, check to see if the horn works. The
horn fuse may be blown. To replace the fuse, see
Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 417.
If the alarm does not sound or the front turn signal
lamps do not ash, see your dealer for service.
