Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
The following functions
are available on your
vehicle’s remote keyless
entry system:
n(Lock/Unlock):Press this button to lock all of the
doors. If all of the doors and the trunk are closed, the
hazard lamps will flash once and the horn will chirp to
indicate that locking has occurred and the theft-deterrent
system will activate.
Press the button again to unlock all of the doors. The
hazard lamps will flash twice to indicate that unlocking
has occurred and the theft-deterrent system will
deactivate.If the door is not opened or if the engine is not started
within 30 seconds after unlocking the doors with the
transmitter, all of the doors will automatically lock and the
theft-deterrent system will re-activate.
V(Trunk):Press this button to unlock the trunk. The
horn will chirp twice to indicate that the trunk is unlocked.
The LED on the transmitter will flash when the buttons
on the transmitter are pressed.
The lock/unlock and trunk buttons will not operate and
the theft-deterrent system will not activate while the
key is in the ignition.
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
two transmitters matched to it.

the key.
•Press the lock/unlock button on the transmitter.
- The LED on the transmitter will flash.
- All of the doors will unlock.

within 30 seconds after disarming the system with
the transmitter, all of the doors will automatically lock
and the theft-deterrent mode will re-arm.
How the System Alarm is Activated
If a door or the trunk is opened without using the key
or the remote keyless entry transmitter, the horn
will sound and the lamps will flash for up to 30 seconds.

one of the following methods:
•Press the lock/unlock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter.

How to Detect a Tamper Condition

button on the remote keyless entry transmitter is
pressed, the theft-deterrent system alarm was activated
while you were away.

8. Now connect the black
negative (−) cable
to the negative (−)
terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote
negative (−) terminal
if the vehicle has one.
Do not let the other end touch anything until the
next step. The other end of the negative (−) cable
does not go to the dead battery. It goes to a
heavy, unpainted metal engine part or to a remote
negative (−) terminal on the vehicle with the
dead battery.9. Connect the other
end of the negative (−)
cable at least
18 inches (45 cm)
away from the dead
battery, but not near
engine parts that move.
The electrical
connection is just as
good there, and the
chance of sparks
getting back to the
battery is much less.
10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery.
If it will not start after a few tries, it probably needs
service.
Notice:If the jumper cables are removed in the
wrong order, electrical shorting may occur and
damage the vehicle. The repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Remove the jumper
cables in the correct order, making sure that the
cables do not touch each other or other metal.
