that could hurt you or other
people.
Notice: This means there is
something that could result in
property or vehicle damage.
This would not be covered by
the vehicle's warranty.
A circle with a slash through it
is a safety symbol which means
“Do Not,” “Do not do this” or
“Do not let this happen.”

The vehicle has components and
labels that use symbols instead of
text. Symbols are shown along with the text describing the operation or
information relating to a specific
component, control, message,
gauge, or indicator.

If there is a decrease in the RKE
operating range:
.Check the distance.
The transmitter may be
too far from the vehicle.
.Check the location. Other
vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
.Check the transmitter's battery.
See“Battery Replacement” later
in this section.
.If the transmitter is still not
working correctly, see your
dealer or a qualified technician
for service.
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter functions work up to 9 m
(30 feet) away from the vehicle.
There are other conditions which
can affect the performance of the
transmitter. See Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System on page 2‑2.
LOCK: Press to lock all the doors.
The parking lamps may flash and
the horn may chirp.
If a door is open or ajar when LOCK
is pressed, the doors lock, but the
theft-deterrent system does not arm
until the open door is closed.
Pressing LOCK may arm the
content theft-deterrent system.
See Anti-Theft Alarm System
on
page 2‑9for additional information. UNLOCK:
Press to unlock only the
driver's door. The interior lamps
come on, the parking lamps may
flash, and the horn may sound.
Press UNLOCK again within
three seconds to unlock all the
doors.
Pressing UNLOCK may disarm the
content theft-deterrent system.
See Anti-Theft Alarm System
on
page 2‑9for additional information.
Different feedback choices can be
programmed through the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See
“Remote Keyless Entry Feedback”
under Driver Information Center
(DIC) on page 5‑18.
L (Panic): Press to activate the
alarm. The horn sounds and the
headlamps and taillamps flash for
up to 30 seconds. To turn the alarm
off press Lagain, start the vehicle
or wait 30 seconds.

To open the swing‐gate, use the
door handle to pull the swing-gate
rearward slightly so it opens
automatically.
Vehicle Security
Vehicle theft is big business,
especially in some cities. This
vehicle has theft-deterrent features,
however, they do not make it
impossible to steal.
Anti-Theft Alarm System
This vehicle has a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
The security light is located on the
instrument panel cluster.
To arm the system:
1. Close all the doors.
2. Lock the doors with the RemoteKeyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
The security light flashes. If the lock button on the RKE
transmitter is pressed, but a door is
open, the doors lock, the lights may
flash and the horn may sound.
Close the open door to arm the
system.
The alarm goes off if a locked door
is not opened using the RKE
transmitter, or by OnStar
®.
A pre-alarm sounds the horn at
reduced intensity for 10 seconds.
Then, the front turn signal lamps
flash for two minutes, and the horn
sounds for two minutes. The alarm
then turns off to save battery power.
Start the engine to turn off the
alarm.
The theft-deterrent system does
not activate if the doors are locked
with the key, the manual door lock,
or power door lock switch. The
system can only be activated using
the RKE transmitter, or by OnStar.
See the OnStar Owner's Guide for
additional information. The vehicle
can be started with the correct key if
the alarm has been set off.

Instruments and Controls 5-27
It is recommended that a new
battery be installed in your
hand-held transmitter for quicker
and more accurate transmission of
the radio-frequency signal.
Programming the Universal
Home Remote System
For questions or help programming
the Universal Home Remote
System, call 1‐800‐355‐3515
or go to www.homelink.com.
Programming a garage door opener
involves time-sensitive actions, so
read the entire procedure before
starting. Otherwise, the device will
time out and the procedure will have
to be repeated.To program up to three devices:
1. From inside the vehicle, press
and hold down the two outside
buttons at the same time,
releasing only when the
Universal Home Remote
indicator light begins to flash,
after 20 seconds. This step will
erase the factory settings or all
previously programmed buttons.
Do not hold down the buttons for
longer than 30 seconds and do
not repeat this step to program
the remaining two Universal
Home Remote buttons. 2. Hold the end of your hand-held
transmitter about 3 to 8 cm
(1 to 3 inches) away from the
Universal Home Remote buttons
while keeping the indicator
light in view. The hand-held
transmitter was supplied by the
manufacturer of your garage
door opener receiver (motor
head unit).
3. At the same time, press and hold both the Universal Home
Remote button to be used to
control the garage door and the
hand-held transmitter button.
Do not release the Universal
Home Remote button or the
hand-held transmitter button until
Step 4 has been completed.
Some entry gates and garage
door openers may require
substitution of Step 3 with the
procedure noted in “Gate
Operator and Canadian
Programming” later in this
section.

You would not be able to start
your vehicle, and the bad
grounding could damage the
electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the
vehicles rolling, set the parking
brake firmly on both vehicles
involved in the jump start
procedure. Put an automatic
transmission in P (Park) or a
manual transmission in Neutral
before setting the parking brake.
If you have a four-wheel-drive
vehicle, be sure the transfer
case is not in Neutral.
Notice: If you leave the radio or
other accessories on during the
jump starting procedure, they
could be damaged. The repairs
would not be covered by the
warranty. Always turn off the
radio and other accessories
when jump starting the vehicle. 3. Turn off the ignition on both
vehicles. Unplug unnecessary
accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory
power outlets. Turn off the radio
and all lamps that are not
needed. This will avoid sparks
and help save both batteries.
And it could save the radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the batteries on both vehicles. You
will use the positive (+) battery
terminal and the remote
negative (−) jump starting
terminal to jump start your
vehicle. To access the
positive (+) battery terminal,
open the terminal cover. See
Engine Compartment Overview
on page 10‑6for more
information on the terminal
locations.
{WARNING
Using a match near a battery can
cause battery gas to explode.
People have been hurt doing this,
and some have been blinded.
Use a flashlight if you need more
light.
Be sure the batteries have
enough water. You do not need
to add water to the ACDelco
®
battery (or batteries) installed in
your new vehicle. But if a battery
has filler caps, be sure the right
amount of fluid is there. If it is low,
add water to take care of that
first. If you do not, explosive gas
could be present.
Battery fluid contains acid that
can burn you. Do not get it on
you. If you accidentally get it in
your eyes or on your skin, flush
the place with water and get
medical help immediately.

10. Now start the vehicle with thegood 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
connected or removed in the
wrong order, electrical shorting
may occur and damage the
vehicle. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always connect and remove the
jumper cables in the correct
order, making sure that the
cables do not touch each other
or other metal.
Jumper Cable Removal
A. Heavy, Unpainted Metal Engine Part or Remote Negative (−)
Terminal
B. Good Battery or Remote Positive (+) and Remote
Negative (−) Terminals
C. Dead Battery or Remote Positive (+) Terminal To disconnect the jumper cables
from both vehicles, do the following:
1. Disconnect the black
negative (−) cable from the
vehicle that had the dead
battery.
2. Disconnect the black negative (−) cable from the
vehicle with the good battery.
3. Disconnect the red positive (+) cable from the vehicle with the
good battery.
4. Disconnect the red positive (+) cable from the other vehicle.
5. Return the positive (+) battery terminal cover to its original
position.
