Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and unlock
your doors from about
3 feet (4 m) up to 30 feet (9 m)
away using the remote keyless entry transmitter supplied
with your vehicle.
UNLOCK: When you
press UNLOCK, the
driver’s door will unlock
automatically, the parking
lamps will flash and the
interior lights will go on.
If you press UNLOCK again within three seconds,
all doors will unlock.
LOCK: Press LOCK to lock all the doors. Press LOCK
again within three seconds and the horn will chirp.
REAR 2X: When you press the REAR button twice
within three seconds to unlock the rear hatch or cargo
doors, the parking lamps
will flash and the interior lights
will go on. If the engine is running, the automatic
transmission must be in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) for
the REAR
2X button to operate.
& (Panic Alarm): When this button is pressed,
the horn will sound and the headlamps and taillamps
will flash for up to
30 seconds. This can be turned off by
pressing the panic button again, waiting for
30 seconds,
or starting the vehicle.
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.
