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
retailer 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.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote
keyless entry transmitter should last about
four 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.

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
The remote keyless entry transmitter is used to
arm/disarm the theft-deterrent system. Your
vehicle’s theft-deterrent system can be
programmed to three different modes.
Active Arming:The system will arm when the
lock button on the remote keyless entry transmitter
is pressed. The system will disarm when the
unlock button is pressed.
Passive Arming:The system will arm itself
one minute after the ignition is turned off and
the driver’s door has been opened and closed.
If the lock button on the transmitter is pressed
before the minute has passed, the system will
arm immediately. The system will disarm when
the unlock button is pressed.
Security System Disable:The system will
not arm.To change the mode that your vehicle is
programmed to, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to RUN or ACC.
2. Press the panic alarm button on the
transmitter slowly four times within
ve seconds.
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 lock button on the transmitter twice
within 3 seconds.
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.
