was not successful. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer to have the
new key programmed if you are still unsuccessful.
Wait 20 seconds and then repeat this procedure from Step 1 to program
an additional key.
Programming a Spare Intelligent Access Key (if equipped)
Note:You can program a maximum of four intelligent access keys to
your vehicle. You must take your vehicle and all access keys to an
authorized dealer to have them erased and reprogrammed if you would
like to replace a previously programmed access key with a new access
key, or if you already have four access keys programmed to your vehicle.
You must have two previously programmed intelligent access keys inside
the vehicle and the new unprogrammed intelligent access keys readily
accessible. See an authorized dealer to have the spare key programmed
if two previously programmed keys are not available.
Make sure that the vehicle is off before beginning this procedure. Make
sure to close all the doors before beginning and that they remain closed
throughout the procedure. Perform all steps within 30 seconds of
starting the sequence. Stop and wait for at least one minute before
starting again if you perform any steps out of sequence.
Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Place the new unprogrammed
intelligent access key, with the
buttons facing out, in the pocket
inside of the center console.
2. Press the driver or passenger
power door unlock control three
times.
3. Press and release the brake pedal
one time.
4. Press the driver or passenger power door lock control three times.
5. Press and release the brake pedal one time. The indicator on the
START/STOPbutton should begin to flash rapidly. This indicates the
vehicle is in programming mode and that it has detected two
programmed intelligent access keys in the vehicle.

Service engine soon
Theservice engine soonindicator light illuminates when the
ignition is first turned to the on position to check the bulb and to
indicate whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance
(I/M) testing. Normally, the “service engine soon” light will stay on until the
engine is cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present.
However, if after 15 seconds the “service engine soon” light blinks eight
times, it means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. See the
Readiness for inspection/maintenance (I/M) testingin theFuel and
Refuelingchapter.
Solid illumination after the engine is started indicates the on-board
diagnostics system (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Refer to
On-board diagnostics (OBD-II)in theFuel and Refuelingchapter. If
the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage your
catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration
and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced immediately by your
authorized dealer.
WARNING:Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust
temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel
system, interior floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly
causing a fire.
