If the engine does not start and the security
light stays on, there is a problem with the
system. Turn the ignition off and try again.
If the ignition will not change from off to
on or ACC/ACCESSORY, and the RKE
transmitter appears to be undamaged, try
another transmitter. Or, you may try placing
the transmitter in the cupholder in the
center console. SeeRemote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation 07.
If the vehicle will not start with the other
transmitter, or with the transmitter in the
cupholder, the vehicle needs service. If the
vehicle does start, the first transmitter may
be faulty. See your dealer who can service
the theft-deterrent system and have a new
RKE transmitter programmed to the vehicle.
It is possible for the immobilizer system to
learn new or replacement RKE transmitters.
Up to eight transmitters can be
programmed to the vehicle. To program
additional transmitters, see “Programming
Transmitters to the Vehicle” underRemote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation 07.
Do not leave the transmitter or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft-deterrent
system in the vehicle.Exterior Mirrors

The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
must be in the vehicle for the system to
operate. If the pushbutton start is not
working, the vehicle may be near a strong
radio antenna signal causing interference to
the Keyless Access system. SeeRemote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation 07.

assist in the brake and steering systems and
disable the airbags. If the vehicle must be shut off in an
emergency:
1. Brake using a firm and steady pressure. Do not pump the brakes repeatedly. This
may deplete power assist, requiring
increased brake pedal force.
2. Shift the vehicle to N (Neutral). This can be done while the vehicle is moving.
After shifting to N (Neutral), firmly apply
the brakes and steer the vehicle to a
safe location.
3. Come to a complete stop, shift to P (Park), and turn the ignition off. The
shift lever must be in P (Park) to turn the
