programmed. Any lost or stolen
transmitters no longer work once the
new transmitter is programmed.
Each vehicle can have up to eight
transmitters programmed to it.

Keys, Doors, and Windows 2-9Liftgate Operation with Loss of
Power
To open the liftgate if the vehicle's
battery is disconnected or the
voltage is low, access the release
lever. Remove the interior trim cover
on the inside of the liftgate. Use a
tool to push the lever on the latch
until the liftgate releases. Vehicle Security This vehicle has theft-deterrent
features; however, they do not make
the vehicle impossible to steal.
Vehicle Alarm System The vehicle may have a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
The security light is near the center
of the instrument panel.
To arm the theft-deterrent system,
press
Q on the RKE transmitter
when all doors and the hood, on vehicles equipped with the remote
start feature only, are closed. The
security light will come on solid for
approximately 30 seconds and then
flash slowly. If
Q on the RKE
transmitter is pressed a second
time, the theft-deterrent system will
arm immediately, bypassing the
30-second delay. The content-theft
deterrent alarm is not armed until
the security light flashes slowly.
If any door, liftgate, or the hood, on
vehicles equipped with the remote
start feature only, are opened
without using the key or pressing
Kon the RKE transmitter, the exterior
lamps flash and the horn will sound
for about 30 seconds. If
Q or
K on
the RKE transmitter is not pressed,
the alarm sounds and periodically
repeats. If the system does not
operate as described above, see
your dealer for service.
The theft-deterrent system does not
arm if you lock the doors with a key.

Black plate (10,1)Chevrolet Captiva Sport Owner Manual - 2013 - crc - 11/12/12
2-10 Keys, Doors, and Windows To avoid setting off the alarm by
accident, always unlock a door with
the RKE transmitter or a key.
Unlocking a door any other way will
set off the alarm if the system has
been armed.
If you set off the alarm by accident,
turn off the alarm by pressing
Q or
K on the RKE transmitter or by
placing the key in the ignition and
turning it to START.
Testing the Alarm To test the alarm:
1. From inside the vehicle, lower
the driver window and open the
driver door.
2. Get out of the vehicle, close the
door, and activate the system by
locking the doors with the RKE
transmitter.
3. Wait for the security light to flash
slowly. 4. Reach in through the window,
unlock the door with the manual
door lock, and open the door.
This should set off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it
should, but the vehicle's headlamps
flash, check to see if the horn
works. The horn fuse may be blown.
To replace the fuse, see Fuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 10 ‑ 30 .
If the alarm does not sound or the
vehicle's headlamps do not flash,
see your dealer for service.
Immobilizer See Radio Frequency Statement on
page 13 ‑ 20 for information
regarding Part 15 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
rules and Industry Canada
Standards RSS-GEN/210/220/310. Immobilizer Operation This vehicle has PASS-Key ®
III+
(Personalized Automotive Security
System) theft-deterrent system.
PASS-Key III+ is a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the key is removed from the
ignition.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The security light comes on if there
is a problem with the theft-deterrent
system operation.
When the PASS-Key III+ system
senses that someone is using the
wrong key, it prevents the vehicle
from starting. Anyone using a
trial-and-error method to start the
vehicle will be discouraged because
of the high number of electrical key
codes.

10-48 Vehicle Care .
Operating electronic devices or
being near facilities using radio
wave frequencies similar to the
TPMS could cause the TPMS
sensors to malfunction.
TPMS Sensor Matching
Process Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code needs to be matched to a new
tire/wheel position after rotating the
vehicle ’ s tires or replacing one or
more of the TPMS sensors. Also,
the TPMS sensor matching process
should be performed after replacing
a spare tire with a road tire
containing the TPMS sensor. The
malfunction light should go off at the
next ignition cycle. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions,
using a TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: driver side front tire,
passenger side front tire, passenger
side rear tire, and driver side rear.
See your dealer for service or to
purchase a relearn tool. There are two minutes to match the
first tire/wheel position, and
five minutes overall to match all four
tire/wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.
The TPMS matching process is:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with
the engine off.
3. Press and hold the RKE
transmitter's
Q and
K buttons at
the same time, for about
three seconds. The horn will
sound twice to indicate the
receiver is ready for the sensor
matching process to begin.
4. Start with the driver side front
tire. The driver side turn signal
lamp comes on.
5. Place the relearn tool against
the tire sidewall, near the valve
stem. Then press the button to
activate the TPMS sensor.
A horn chirp confirms that the sensor identification code has
been matched to this tire and
wheel position.
6. Proceed to the passenger side
front tire. The passenger side
front turn signal lamp comes on.
Repeat the procedure in Step 5.
7. Proceed to the passenger side
rear tire. The passenger side
rear turn signal lamp comes on.
Repeat the procedure in Step 5.
8. Proceed to the driver side rear
tire. The driver side rear turn
signal lamp comes on. Repeat
the procedure in Step 5. The
horn sounds two times to
indicate the sensor identification
code has been matched to the
driver side rear tire, and the
TPMS sensor matching process
is no longer active.
9. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.
10. Set all four tires to the
recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
