Two personalized exit positions can be set by rst
recalling the driving position (by pressing 1 or 2),
then positioning the steering wheel and seat in the
desired exit positions and then pressing and
holding the exit button until two beeps are heard.
The exit button is located between buttons 1 and 2.
With the vehicle in PARK (P), the exit position
for the previously set driver can be recalled
by pressing the exit button.
When you use the keyless access transmitter to
unlock your vehicle, automatic seat and steering
wheel movement to the exit position may
occur. The numbers on the back of the
transmitter, 1 and 2, corresponds to the numbers
on the memory buttons.
Further programming for automatic seat and mirror
movement can be done using the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
For programming information, seeDIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 220.Power Reclining Seatbacks

To unlatch the belt, push the button on the buckle.
The belt should go back out of the way.
Before you close the door, be sure the belt is out
of the way. If you slam the door on it, you can
damage both the belt and your vehicle.
Safety Belt Use During Pregnancy
Safety belts work for everyone, including pregnant
women. Like all occupants, they are more likely to
be seriously injured if they do not wear safety belts.A pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder
belt, and the lap portion should be worn as low as
possible, below the rounding, throughout the
pregnancy.
The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it
is more likely that the fetus will not be hurt
in a crash. For pregnant women, as for anyone,
the key to making safety belts effective is wearing
them properly.

child or others could be badly injured or
even killed.
They could operate the power windows or
other controls or even make the vehicle
move. If they started the engine and
moved the shift lever out of PARK (P),
that would release the parking brake.
Do not leave the keyless access
transmitter in a vehicle with children.

Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each keyless access transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from working with 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.
Once your dealer has coded the new transmitter,
the lost transmitter will not work with your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four
transmitters matched to it.
To match a new transmitter to your vehicle when
you have a recognized transmitter, do the
following:
1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Have the recognized and new, unrecognized
transmitters on your person.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the
vehicle key into the key cylinder located on
the lower rear fascia on the driver’s side of the
vehicle. SeeTrunk on page 77for more
information on the key cylinder.
4. Open the trunk.
69

5. Turn the key ve times within ve seconds.
6. The Driver Information Center (DIC) will
display READY FOR FOB #X. X can be
2,3or4.
7. Place the new, unrecognized transmitter in
the glove box transmitter pocket with the
buttons facing to the right.
8. Once the transmitter is programmed, a beep
will sound. The DIC will display READY FOR
#X, where X can be 3 or 4, or MAX #
FOBS LEARNED.
9. Press the Acc. button.The Canadian immobilizer standard requires
Canadian owners to see their GM dealer
for matching new transmitters when a recognized
transmitter is not available. United States
owners are permitted to match a new transmitter
to their vehicle when a recognized transmitter
is not available. The procedure will require
three ten minute cycles to complete the matching
process. Do the following:
1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Place the new, unrecognized transmitter in
the glove box transmitter pocket with the
buttons facing to the right.
