4. Buckle, position and release the safety belt as
described in ªRear Seat Passenger Positionsº earlier
in this section. Make sure that the shoulder belt
crosses the shoulder.
To remove and store the comfort guides, squeeze the
belt edges together so that you can take them out of the
guides. Pull the guide upward to expose its storage clip,
and then slide the guide onto the clip. Turn the guide
and the clip inward and insert it in between the seatback
and the interior body, leaving only the loop of elastic
cord exposed.
Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! This includes
infants and all other children. Neither the distance
traveled nor the age and size of the traveler changes the
need, for everyone, to use safety restraints. In fact, the
law in every state in the United States and in every
Canadian province says children up to some age must be
restrained while in a vehicle.
Infants and Young Children
Every time infants and young children ride in vehicles,
they should have the protection provided by the
appropriate restraint. Young children should not use the
vehicle's safety belts, unless there is no other choice.

Changes or modifications 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 range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry 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 the instructions that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.Operation
(Lock): When you press
this symbol on the remote
keyless entry transmitter,
the doors on the vehicle will
lock. This also arms the
theft
-deterrent system.
You can program your vehicle so that the exterior lamps
will flash and/or the horn will sound when you lock the
doors with the remote keyless entry transmitter. See
ªVehicle Programming and Personalization Featuresº
in the Index for more information on programming
this feature.
If your vehicle is programmed for remote confirmation,
the doors must be closed for this feature to work. If a
door is open, remote confirmation will be canceled.

2-13
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 won't
work at the normal range in any location. If you have to
get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it's 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.
1. Use a flat thin object to pry open the transmitter.
2. Once the transmitter is separated, use a pencil or
similar object to remove the old battery. Do not use
a metal object.

This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than an

use this equipment.
The system works when you turn the key to ON (II).
The key uses a transponder that matches an immobilizer
control unit in your vehicle. The correct key will start
the vehicle.
Your vehicle has a special key that works with the
theft
-deterrent system. There is a transponder in the key
head. If the key is ever damaged, you may not be able to
start your vehicle.When trying to start the vehicle, if the engine does
not start and the security light comes on, the key may
have a damaged transponder. Turn the ignition off and
try again.
If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to
be undamaged, try another ignition key. At this time,
you may also want to check the fuse. See ªFuses and
Circuit Breakersº in the Index. If the engine still does
not start with the other key, your vehicle needs service.
If your vehicle does start, the first key may be faulty.
See your dealer who can service the theft
-deterrent
system to have a new key made.
It is possible for the theft
-deterrent system decoder
to learn the transponder value of a new or replacement
key. Up to 10 additional keys may be programmed for
the vehicle. This procedure is for learning additional
keys only.

Status Menu Item Descriptions
The following paragraphs contain a more detailed
description of each menu item:
BLANK LINE/Blank Display: If you select this item,
nothing is displayed at the top of the screen.
OUTSIDE TEMP/Outside Temperature: If you select
this item, the current outside temperature is displayed at
the top of the screen. It will be in either degrees
Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius depending upon whether
the system is set for English or metric units. If you wish
to change the units, see ªEnglish/Metric Unitsº in the
Index.

vehicle has right now and will change frequently as
driving conditions change. Unlike average fuel
economy, this menu item cannot be reset.
GAL FUEL USED/Fuel Used: If you select this item,
the number of gallons of fuel used since the last reset of

example, if you are driving in traffic making frequent
stops, the display may read one number, but if you enter
the freeway, the number may change even though you
still have the same amount of gas in the gas tank. This is
because different driving conditions produce different
fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving produces
better fuel economy than city driving.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, the Low Fuel Level
message will be displayed. See ªLow Fuel Level
Messageº in the Index for more information.
AVG MPH/Average Vehicle Speed: If you select this
item, the average speed of the vehicle is displayed in

the timer and then press and hold the CLR button. The
display will return to zero.
