Vehicle Personalization
Your vehicle has personalization that allows you to
program certain features to a preferred setting for up to
two drivers. The back of the keyless access transmitters
are labelled 1 or 2. Additional keyless access transmitters
programmed to the vehicle, as 3 and/or 4, do not have
a number on the back and are not capable of being
personalized. The number of programmable features
varies depending upon which vehicle options are
purchased.
On all vehicles, features such as climate control settings,
radio and XM™ preset settings, exterior lighting at unlock
and remote lock unlock conrmation, and language have
already been programmed for your convenience. Your
vehicle also has an automatic door locking feature that is
always on. You cannot turn the automatic door locking
feature off. SeeProgrammable Automatic Door Locks on
page 2-15.
Some vehicles have additional features that can be
programmed including the seat, steering column, and
outside rearview mirror position.If your vehicle has the base audio system, the following
information explains the vehicle personalization on
your vehicle.

“Personalization” in the Index of the Navigation System
manual for information on vehicle personalization.
If your vehicle has the ability to program additional
personalization features, the driver’s preferences
are recalled by pressing any button on the keyless
access transmitter, 1 or 2, by selecting Driver 1 or 2 on
the radio display, or when a valid keyless access
transmitter is detected upon opening the driver’s door.
If more than one valid keyless access transmitter is
detected upon opening the driver’s door, the driver
preferences for the lowest driver number will be recalled.
Certain features can be programmed not to recall until
the ignition is turned off.
The default settings for the personalization features
were set when your vehicle left the factory, but
may have changed from their default state since then.
