Mode 3: All doors automatically lock when the
transaxle is shifted out of PARK (P). No automatic
door unlock.

Mode 4: No automatic door lock or unlock.
When your vehicle was shipped from the factory it was
programmed in Mode 1. To determine the current
mode of the vehicle or to change to a different mode,
do the following:
1. Ensure the shift lever is in PARK (P) and all doors
are fully closed throughout this procedure. Turn the
ignition to ON.
2. Press and hold LOCK on either power door lock
switch for 10 seconds. Release the switch when you
hear the chime.
3. Count the number of chimes you hear. The number
of chimes tells you which mode your vehicle is in.
You can change the mode by pressing and holding
LOCK on the power door lock switch (two chimes
for Mode 2, three chimes for Mode 3 and
four chimes for Mode 4).
4. Repeat Step 2 until you hear the number of chimes
that matches the mode you want.
The mode you selected is now set.Delayed Locking
This feature will allow the driver to delay the actual
locking of the vehicle. This feature will not operate if
the key is left in the ignition. See ªAnti
-Lockout
Protectionº later in this section.
When LOCK on the driver's power door lock switch is
pressed, with the key removed from the ignition and the
driver's door open, three chimes will be heard. The
doors will not lock. Seven seconds after the driver's
door has been closed, all of the doors will lock and the
parking lamps will flash twice. The horn will also chirp
if the horn chirp feature is enabled. See ªProgrammable
Horn Chirpº in the Index for more information.
If the driver opens another door before the
seven seconds, the doors will not lock until
seven seconds after the last door is closed.
If the power door lock switch is pressed to LOCK twice
when leaving the vehicle, or the LOCK button on the
remote keyless entry transmitter is pressed, the doors
will lock immediately.
If the power door lock switch is pressed to unlock, the
doors will unlock immediately and not lock
automatically after the doors are closed.

2-11
Changes or modifications to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization
to use this equipment.
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry system. If the
transmitter does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:

Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.

Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may
be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left
or right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.

Check to determine if battery replacement or
resynchronization is necessary. See the instructions
that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.Operation
The following functions are
available with the keyless
entry system:
LOCK: All doors will automatically lock when the
LOCK button on the transmitter is pressed. The interior
lamps will turn off after all of the doors are closed. If all
of the doors are closed when the transmitter lock button
is pressed, the parking lamps will flash twice and the
horn will chirp (if the horn chirp feature is enabled) to
indicate locking has occurred.

2-12
UNLOCK: The driver's door will unlock automatically
when the UNLOCK button on the transmitter is pressed.
If the UNLOCK button is pressed again within
five seconds, all remaining doors will unlock. The
interior lamps will stay on for 10 seconds or until the
ignition is turned on. The parking lamps will flash twice
to indicate unlocking has occurred.
: The trunk will unlock when the vehicle symbol
on the transmitter is pressed, as long as the trunk lockout
is not engaged. See ªRemote Trunk Release Lockoutº in
the Index. You can open the trunk with the transmitter
when ignition is on with the shift lever in PARK (P), or
when the ignition is off. The interior lamps will come
on for 10 seconds or until the ignition switch is turned
to ON.
: The horn will sound and the headlamps and the
parking lamps will flash for up to two minutes when the
horn symbol on the transmitter is pressed. The interior
lamps will come on and remain on while the horn is
sounding and the lamps are flashing. The horn and
lamps can be turned off by pressing the horn symbol
button again or by turning the ignition to ON.Programmable Horn Chirp
When you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to
lock the doors or use the delayed locking feature, the
parking lamps will flash twice. The horn can also chirp
to indicate locking by enabling the horn chirp feature.
The programmable horn chirp can be disabled by
pressing and holding either of the door lock switches in
the unlock position for 10 seconds, with the ignition ON
and all of the doors closed. When you hear the horn
chirp, programming is complete.
To reactivate the horn chirp feature, repeat the
above procedure.
Radio Personalization
Your vehicle can store different radio preset stations and
other settings depending on which remote keyless entry
transmitter is used to unlock the doors. The radio will
recall all the stored settings associated with that
transmitter. Any radio setting changes will be assigned
to the transmitter last used to unlock the doors.

2-31
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle if
the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with the
parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll.
Don't leave your vehicle when the engine is
running unless you have to. If you've left the
engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly.
You or others could be injured. To be sure your
vehicle won't move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your parking brake and
move the shift lever to PARK (P).
Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle won't
move. See ªShifting Into PARK (P)º in the Index.
If you are parking on a hill and if you're pulling a
trailer, also see ªTowing a Trailerº in the Index.
