iv Preface

To avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:
Lock the vehicle with the manual
door lock lever, the power door
lock switch, or the key, after
the doors are closed.
Unlock the doors by pressing the
unlock button on the RKE
transmitter or by contacting
OnStar. Unlocking a door any
other way activates the alarm.
Press unlock on the RKE
transmitter, start the vehicle with
the correct key, or have OnStar
unlock the doors to turn the alarm
off. The alarm does not stop if
a door is unlocked any other way.
Testing the Alarm
To test the alarm:
1. From inside the vehicle, lock the
doors with the RKE transmitter.
2. Unlock the door with the manual
door lock and open the door.
The pre-alarm should sound
followed by the full alarm about
10 seconds later.
3. Press the unlock button on the
RKE transmitter or start the
engine to turn the alarm off.
If the alarm does not sound but the
lights ash, check to see if the
horn works. The horn fuse could be
blown. To replace the fuse, see
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
on page 5-91.
If the alarm does not sound or
the front turn signal lamps do not
ash, see your dealer/retailer
for service.
Passlock®(U.S. Only)
Passlock®is a passive
theft-deterrent system that enables
fuel if the vehicle is started with
a valid key. If an incorrect key
is used or the ignition lock cylinder
is tampered with, the fuel system
is disabled and the vehicle does
not start.
The security light turns off
approximately ve seconds after
the engine is started. SeeSecurity
Light on page 3-33.
If the engine stalls and the security
light ashes, wait about 10 minutes
until the light stops ashing
before trying to restart the engine.
Release the key from START
as soon as the engine starts.
If the engine does not start after
three tries, the vehicle needs
service.
2-12 Features and Controls

PASS-Key®III+ Electronic
Immobilizer Operation
(Canada Only)
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the key is removed from
the ignition.
The system is automatically
disarmed when the key is turned
to ON/RUN.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The security light comes on if there
is a problem with arming or
disarming the theft-deterrent system.
The key uses a transponder that
matches an immobilizer control unit
in the vehicle. Only the correct
key starts the vehicle. If the key is
ever damaged, the vehicle may
not start.When trying to start the vehicle,
if the engine does not start and
the security light comes on,
there may be a problem with the
theft-deterrent system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.
If the engine still does not start, and
the key appears to be undamaged,
try another ignition key. Check
the fuse. SeeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 5-91. If the engine
still does not start with the other
key, the vehicle needs service.
If the vehicle does start, the rst
key may be faulty. See your
dealer/retailer who can service the
theft-deterrent system and have
a new key made.
It is possible for the theft-deterrent
system decoder to learn the
transponder value of a new or
replacement key. Up to 10 keys can
be programmed for the vehicle.
The following procedure is for
programming additional keys only.Canadian Owners:If the keys
are lost or damaged, only a
dealer/retailer can service the
theft-deterrent system to have new
ones made. Two current driver’s
keys are required to program
additional keys.
To program a new key:
1. Verify that the new key has
PK3+ stamped on it.
2. Insert the current driver’s key in
the ignition and start the engine.
If the engine does not start see
your dealer/retailer for service.
3. After the engine has started,
turn the key to LOCK/OFF,
and remove the key.
4. Insert the second current driver’s
key in the ignition and start the
engine within ten seconds of
removing the previous key. If the
engine does not start see your
dealer/retailer for service.

Electrical System
Add-On Electrical
Equipment
Notice:Do not add anything
electrical to the vehicle unless you
check with your dealer/retailer
rst. Some electrical equipment
can damage the vehicle and the
damage would not be covered by
the vehicle’s warranty. Some
add-on electrical equipment can
keep other components from
working as they should.
Add-on equipment can drain the
vehicle’s battery, even if the vehicle
is not operating.
The vehicle has an airbag system.
Before attempting to add anything
electrical to the vehicle, see
Servicing Your Airbag-Equipped
Vehicle on page 1-58.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is
protected by a circuit breaker and a
fuse. If the motor overheats due
to heavy snow or ice, the wiper will
stop until the motor cools. If the
overload is caused by some
electrical problem, have it xed.
Power Windows and
Other Power Options
Circuit breakers protect the
power windows and other power
accessories. When the current load
is too heavy, the circuit breaker
opens and closes, protecting the
circuit until the problem is xed
or goes away.
Power and Heated Seat
Circuit Breakers
There is a circuit breaker located
underneath the driver’s side
front seat that controls the power
and heated seat functions.
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle
are protected from short circuits by a
combination of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the
chance of res caused by electrical
problems.
Look at the silver-colored band
inside the fuse. If the band is
broken or melted, replace the fuse.
Be sure you replace a bad fuse
with a new one of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the
road and do not have a spare
fuse, you can borrow one that has
the same amperage. Just pick some
feature of your vehicle that you
can get along without — like the
radio or cigarette lighter — and use
its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
