Programming Transmitters to
the Vehicle
Only RKE transmitters programmed
to this vehicle will work. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a
replacement can be purchased and
programmed through your dealer/
retailer. When the replacement
transmitter is programmed to this
vehicle using the DIC, all remaining
transmitters must also be
reprogrammed. Any lost or stolen
transmitters will no longer work once
the new transmitter is programmed.
Each vehicle can have up to
eight transmitters programmed to it.
See “Relearn Remote Key” under
DIC Operation and Displays on
page 3-41for instructions on how to
program transmitters to this vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Replace the battery if the REPLACE
BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY
message displays in the DIC.Notice:When replacing the
battery, do not touch any of the
circuitry on the transmitter. Static
from your body could damage
the transmitter.
1. Separate the transmitter with a
at, thin object inserted into the
notch on the side.
2. Remove the old battery. Do not
use a metal object.
3. Insert the new battery, positive
side facing down. Replace with
a CR2032 or equivalent battery.
4. Snap the transmitter back
together.
Remote Vehicle Start
This vehicle may have a remote
starting feature that starts the engine
from outside of the vehicle.
If the vehicle has an automatic
climate control system, the climate
control system defaults to a
heating or cooling mode depending
on the outside temperatures.
If the vehicle does not have an
automatic climate control system,
the system turns on at the
setting the vehicle was set to when
the vehicle was last turned off.
If the vehicle has an automatic
climate control system and heated
seats, the heated seats turn on
during colder outside temperatures
and shut off when the key is
turned to ON/RUN. SeeHeated
Seats on page 1-4orHeated and
Cooled Seats on page 1-4for
more information.

4. Before starting the engine, be
sure to unplug and store the
cord as it was before to keep it
away from moving engine
parts. If you do not, it could be
damaged.
The length of time the heater should
remain plugged in depends on
several factors. Ask a dealer/retailer
in the area where you will be
parking the vehicle for the best
advice on this.Automatic Transmission

shift lever located on the console
between the seats.

The battery can be discharged at
idle if the electrical loads are
very high. This is true for all
vehicles. This is because the
generator (alternator) may not be
spinning fast enough at idle to
produce all the power that is needed
for very high electrical loads.
A high electrical load occurs when
several of the following are on, such
as: headlamps, high beams, fog
lamps, rear window defogger,
climate control fan at high speed,
heated seats, engine cooling fans,
trailer loads, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent excessive
discharge of the battery. It does this
by balancing the generator’s
output and the vehicle’s electrical
needs. It can increase engine
idle speed to generate more power,
whenever needed. It can temporarily
reduce the power demands of
some accessories.Normally, these actions occur in
steps or levels, without being
noticeable. In rare cases at the
highest levels of corrective action,
this action may be noticeable
to the driver. If so, a Driver
Information Center (DIC) message
might be displayed, such as
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE,
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW, or LOW
BATTERY. If this message is
displayed, it is recommended that
the driver reduce the electrical loads
as much as possible. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on
page 3-48.Battery Run-Down
Protection
This feature helps prevent the
battery from being drained, if the
interior courtesy lamps, reading/map
lamps, visor vanity lamps or trunk
lamp are accidentally left on. If
any of these lamps are left on,
they automatically turn off after
10 minutes, if the ignition is off. The
lamps will not come back on
again until one of the following
occurs:
The ignition is turned on.
The exterior lamps control is
turned off, then on again.
The headlamps will timeout after
10 minutes, if they are manually
turned on before the ignition is off.

The climate control system uses the
information from these sensors to
maintain comfort settings by
adjusting the temperature, fan
speed, and the air delivery mode.
The system may also supply cooler
air to the side of the vehicle
facing the sun. The recirculation
mode will also be used as needed
to maintain cool outlet temperatures.
Outlet Adjustment
Use the slider switch in the center
of the outlet, to change the direction
of the air ow. Use the thumbwheel
near the outlet to control the
amount of air ow or to shut off the
air ow completely.
Keep all outlets open whenever
possible for best system
performance.
Operation Tips
Clear away any ice, snow, or
leaves from the air inlets at
the base of the windshield that
can block the ow of air into
the vehicle.
Use of non-GM approved hood
de ectors can adversely affect
the performance of the system.
Keep the path under all seats
clear of objects to help circulate
the air inside the vehicle
more effectively.
If fogging reoccurs while in vent
or bi-level modes with mild
temperature throughout the
vehicle, turn on the air conditioner
to reduce windshield fogging.
