If somethingtriggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will provide the following audible and visiblesignals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash, and the VehicleSecurity Light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm The System
Vehicles Not Equipped With Keyless Enter-N-Go™
Remove the key from the ignition switch and either push a power door LOCK switch while thedriver or passenger door is open or push the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)transmitter. After the last door is closed, or if all doors are closed, the Vehicle Security Alarmwill arm itself in about 16 seconds. During that time, the Vehicle Security Light will flash. Ifit does not illuminate, the Vehicle Security Alarm is not arming. In addition, if you open a doorduring the arming period, the Vehicle Security Alarm will cancel the arming process. If youwish to rearm the Vehicle Security Alarm after closing the door, you must repeat one of thepreviously-described arming sequences.

Programming A Rolling Code
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after 1995. These Garage
Door Openers can be identified by the LEARN or TRAIN button located where the hanging
antenna is attached to the Garage Door Opener. It is NOT the button that is normally used
to open and close the door. The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink®button you want to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The Homelink®
indicator will flash slowly and then rapidly after Homelink®has received the frequency
signal from the hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons after the indicator light
changes from slow to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the LEARN or TRAINING
button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener motor. Firmly press and release the LEARN or TRAINING button.
NOTE:

6. Return to the vehicle and press the programmed HomeLink®button twice (holding the
button for two seconds each time). If the device is plugged in and activates,
programming is complete.
NOTE:
If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to complete
the training.
