1-4 Memory Seat and Mirrors (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls are
located on the driver's
door armrest.
These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver's seating and outside rearview mirror
positions. Use the following steps to program each button:
1. Adjust the driver's seat (including lumbar adjustments)
and both outside mirrors to a comfortable position.
2. Press the SET button.
3. Within five seconds, press button 1. A single beep
will sound through the driver's side front speaker to
let you know that the position has been stored.A second mirror and seating position may be
programmed by repeating the above steps and pressing
button 2 instead of button 1. Each time button 1 or 2 is
pressed and released while the vehicle is in PARK (P),
the memory position will be recalled. Each time a
memory button is pressed, a single beep will sound.
You can also recall a seat and mirror position if your
vehicle is not in PARK (P). Press and hold either
the 1 or 2 button until seat and mirror movement is
complete. Releasing the buttons will stop adjustment.
If you use the button with the unlock symbol on the
remote keyless entry transmitter to enter the vehicle, the
preset driver's seat and mirror positions will be recalled.
The numbers on the back of the transmitters, 1 or 2,
correspond to the numbers on the driver's armrest.
If the remote keyless entry transmitter was not used to
enter the vehicle, the last used seat and mirror positions
will be recalled when a key is inserted in the ignition
and is turned to RUN. The vehicle must be previously
programmed to turn this feature on. See ªMemory and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.

To stop recall movement of the memory feature at
any time, press one of the power seat controls or
memory buttons.
The EXIT button can be programmed to allow easy exit
for up to two drivers. Adjust the seat to a comfortable
ªexitº position and then press the SET button followed
by the EXIT button. While your vehicle is in PARK (P),
briefly press the EXIT button to recall your programmed
exit position.
Further programming for automatic seat and mirror
movement can be done using the Driver Information
Center (DIC). You can select or not select the following:
Automatic seat and mirror movement when the
vehicle is unlocked with the remote keyless entry
transmitter, or
automatic seat and mirror movement when a key
is placed in the ignition.
For programming information, see ªMemory and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.Heated Front Seat (Option)
The switch for the heated
front seat is located in the
center console.
Move the switch to LO or HI to turn on the heating
elements in the seat. The LO setting warms the
seatback and cushion until the seat approximates body
temperature. The HI setting heats the seat to a slightly
higher temperature.
A light in the switch is on when the system is in use.
The heated seats can only be used when the ignition
is turned on.
To turn the heated front seat off, move the switch to
the center position.

Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers -- especially children -- can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is locked,
the handle won't open it. You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in
a crash if the doors aren't locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the doors
whenever you drive.
Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A child
can be overcome by extreme heat and can
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or stop
your vehicle. Locking your doors can help
prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
Because your vehicle has the theft
-deterrent system,
you must unlock the doors with the key or remote
keyless entry transmitter to avoid setting off the alarm.
From the outside, use either the key or the remote
keyless entry transmitter.
From the inside, use the manual lock levers located on
the door panels.
Slide the manual lock lever down to lock the door from
the inside. To unlock the door, slide the lock lever up.

2-8 Anti-Lockout Feature
Leaving your key in any ignition position with either
door open will disable the use of the power door lock
switches as well as the lock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter. If you close the doors, you can lock
them using the remote keyless entry transmitter. It is
always recommended that you remove your ignition key
when locking your vehicle.
The anti
-lockout feature can be overridden by
holding the driver's power door lock switch for
three seconds or longer.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, open the door, set the
locks from the inside, get out and close the door.
Remote Keyless Entry System
With this feature, you can lock and unlock the doors,
unlock the trunk, open the fuel door and turn on your
vehicle's interior lamps from about 10 feet (3 m) away
using the remote keyless entry transmitter supplied with
your vehicle.
Your remote keyless entry system operates on a
radio frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
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 authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
The average range of this system is about 10 feet (3 m).
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry transmitter.
If the transmitter does not work or if you have to
stand closer to your vehicle for the transmitter to work,
try the following:
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 the button with the
lock symbol on it to lock
the doors, the parking
lamps will flash once.
You can program your
vehicle so the parking
lamps will not flash.
For more information, see ªLock/Unlock Confirmationº
in the Index. This also arms the theft
-deterrent system.
Page 67 of 365
2-10
(Unlock): When you press the button with
the unlock symbol on it to unlock the driver's door,
the parking lamps on your vehicle will flash twice.
You can program your vehicle so the parking lamps
will not flash. For more information, see ªLock/Unlock
Confirmationº in the Index.
Pressing the button with the unlock symbol on it again
within five seconds will unlock the other doors. Pressing
this button will also disarm the theft
-deterrent system
and turn on the interior lamps at night.
(Fuel Door): Press the button with the fuel door
symbol on it to open the fuel door. The VALET lockout
button must be off for this feature to work.
(Trunk): Press the button with the trunk symbol
on it to open the trunk. The VALET lockout button
must be off for this feature to work.
The remote keyless entry transmitter can also be
used to recall the memory seats for up to two drivers.
For more information, see ªMemory Seat and Mirrorsº
in the Index.
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.
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.

Trunk
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can't see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
If you must drive with the trunk lid open or
if electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass through the seal between the body
and the trunk lid:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on AUTO and the temperature between
65F (18C) and 85F (29C). That will
force outside air into your vehicle.
See ªComfort Controlsº in the Index.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
Trunk Lock Release
The button for this feature
is located above the radio
on the Driver Information
Center (DIC).
Press the TRUNK button to open the trunk.
You can also press the button with the trunk symbol
on the remote keyless entry transmitter to access the
trunk compartment.
When the trunk opens, a light will come on inside the
trunk so that you can see what's inside the trunk.
To use this feature, your vehicle must be in PARK (P)
or NEUTRAL (N) and the VALET lockout button
must be off.

Theft
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. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it's an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so
don't do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver's door,
you'll hear a chime reminding you to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you. Always do this.
Your steering wheel will be locked, and so will your
ignition and transaxle. And remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
Even if you park in a lot where someone will be
watching your vehicle, it's still best to lock it up
and take your keys. But what if you have to leave
your ignition key?
If possible, park in a busy, well
-lit area.
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your
trunk or glove box.
Be sure to close and lock the storage area.
Close all windows.
Press the valet lockout button to ON.
Lock the glove box.
Lock all the doors except the driver's.
Then take the door key and remote keyless
entry transmitter with you.

Theft-Deterrent System
The SECURITY light is
located on the instrument
panel cluster.
If the ignition is off and either door is open, the
SECURITY light will flash, reminding you to activate
the system. The light will also flash if the battery has
been disconnected and reconnected.
To activate the theft
-deterrent system, do the following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock or the
remote keyless entry transmitter. The SECURITY
light should come on and stay on.
3. Close both doors. The SECURITY light should
go off within about 30 seconds.
The horn will sound and the lamps will flash for about
30 seconds when a door or the trunk is opened without
the key or the remote keyless entry transmitter. The horn
also sounds if the locks are damaged.Remember, the theft
-deterrent system won't activate if
you lock a door with a key or use the manual door lock.
It activates only if you use a power door lock switch or
the remote keyless entry transmitter.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident,
do the following:
Always unlock a door with a key or use the remote
keyless entry transmitter. (Pressing the button with
the unlock symbol on the remote keyless entry
transmitter disables the theft
-deterrent system.)
Unlocking a door any other way will activate the
alarm. Cycling the ignition without disarming the
theft
-deterrent system will also activate the alarm.
The vehicle should be locked with the door key after
the doors are closed if you don't want to activate the
theft
-deterrent system.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock either
door with your key. You can also turn off the alarm
by using the unlock button of the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The alarm won't stop if you try to unlock
a door any other way.
