trunk release SATURN ION 2004 Owners Manual

3. You must complete one of the following within three
seconds to change the mode.
To select the active arming mode, press the lock
button on the transmitter.
To select the passive arming mode, press the
trunk release button on the transmitter.
To select the security system disable mode,
press the unlock button on the transmitter.
A chime will sound once the mode has been selected.
If you accidentally set off the alarm when entering/exiting
the vehicle, you can shut it off by pressing any button
on the remote keyless entry transmitter other than
the panic alarm button.
If you hear three horn chirps when you press the unlock
button on the transmitter, that means the vehicle’s
alarm was triggered while you were away.
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 retailer. Remember to bring
any remaining transmitters with you when you go to
your retailer. When the retailer 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.

Remote Trunk Release
Press the remote trunk
release button, located on
the lower left side of
the instrument panel,
to release the trunk lid.
Make sure the remote trunk release lockout feature is
not activated. Also, the remote trunk release will
only work when either the ignition is in OFF or ACC,
the parking brake is engaged or the vehicle speed
is less than 2 mph (3 km/h).
Remote Trunk Release Lockout
Your remote trunk release is equipped with a lockout
feature. The switch is located on the inside of the trunk
lid, mounted to the trunk lid latch.
To turn the lockout on, slide the switch to the lock
symbol. To turn the lockout off, slide the switch to the
unlock symbol.
When the lockout is on, the remote trunk release button
will not release the trunk lid. However, the trunk lid
can still be opened with the key, but not with the keyless
entry transmitter.
