theft-deterrent system will not arm until the

Matching Transmitter(s) to
Your Vehicle
Each RKE 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/retailer.
Remember to bring any remaining transmitters
with you when you go to your dealer/retailer.
When the dealer/retailer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining
transmitters must also be matched. Once your
dealer/retailer 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.
