2-7 Power Door Locks

lock both doors at once.
Inadvertent Lockout Protection
If you press the power door lock switch when a door is
open and a key is in the ignition, a chime will sound.
If the power door lock switch is pressed again within
five seconds, the doors will lock.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your key, open your
door and set the locks from inside or with the remote
keyless entry transmitter. Then get out and close the door.
Memory (Option)
MEMORY can store and recall the settings for the
driver's seat position, the outside rearview mirror
positions, telescopic steering wheel (if equipped), radio
presets, tone, volume, playback mode (AM/FM, tape
or CD), last displayed station, compact disc position and
tape direction and the last climate control setting.

The MEMORY buttons are located on the driver's door,
above the power mirror controls. The MEMORY
buttons can store and recall settings for up to three
drivers. Use button ª1º to store the settings for the
first driver, button ª2º for a second driver or press
buttons 1 and 2 at the same time for a third driver.
To store your memory settings:
1. Adjust your settings for the driver's seat position,
outside rearview mirror positions, and telescopic
steering wheel (if equipped).
2. Press and hold a MEMORY button. The light above
the MEMORY button will glow steady for one
second and then flash once when the settings are
complete. Then the light will go off.
3. Set the climate control temperature, fan speed and
mode settings, radio presets, tone, volume, playback
mode (AM/FM, tape or CD), tape direction and
compact disc position.
Your memory settings are now programmed. Any
changes that are made to the audio system and climate
controls while driving will be automatically stored when
the ignition key is turned off.When first entering your vehicle, after pressing the
unlock button on your remote keyless entry transmitter
or a MEMORY button, a recall of your settings will
occur when the door is closed and the ignition key is in
the ignition switch. As the memory settings are recalled,
the light above the button will flash until the correct
settings are achieved, then glow for five seconds
when complete.
A memory recall can be stopped by pressing any
memory seat, mirror or steering column position button.
When your remote keyless entry transmitter has been
programmed to driver 1, 2 or 3, and you insert the key into
the ignition, memory will also occur. Drivers 1, 2 and
3 correspond to the order in which your remote keyless
entry transmitters were programmed. See ªFob Trainingº
in the Index for more information.
Memory recall will not work if the vehicle is moving.
Memory recall will be temporarily interrupted during
engine crank.

The system has a feature that makes it difficult for you
to lock your keys in your vehicle. If you leave your keys
in the ignition and attempt to lock the doors, the vehicle
will not lock and a chime will sound to remind you that
the keys are in the ignition. If the door lock is pressed
again, within five seconds, the doors will lock and the
keys can be locked in the vehicle. This system can't
guarantee that you will never be locked out of your
vehicle. Always remember to take your keys with you.
Panic Alarm Button
When you press the horn button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter, the horn will sound. This panic alarm
button will allow you to attract attention, if needed.
If the horn alarm sounds, there are three ways to turn
it off:
Push the panic alarm button again on the remote
keyless entry transmitter.
Wait 90 seconds, and the horn will turn off by itself.
Turn the key to any position in the ignition,
except OFF.RKE Settings
You can adjust the settings on the system through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). You can change the
type of alarm used by the theft
-deterrent system.
See ªDriver Information Center Controls and Displaysº
in the Index for more information.
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 only three transmitters
matched to it.

Power/Heated Remote Control Mirrors
The electric mirror control is on the driver's door. It
controls the driver's and passenger's mirrors. To adjust
either mirror, press the LT (left) or RT (right) button to
select the mirror, then press the arrows to adjust the
direction of the mirror. The mirror will stay selected for
20 seconds after the last adjustment. An indicator light
will come on above the mirror that you select.
Your preferred mirror position can be stored if you have
the memory option. See ªMemoryº in the Index.
For operation of the heated outside mirrors, see
ªRear Window Defoggerº in the Index.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex mirror's
surface is curved so you can see more from the driver's seat.
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
