•on the owner’s wallet card in the glove compartment
•or at your dealer.
When pressing the controls on the keyless entry keypad, press the
middle of the controls to ensure a good activation.

the permanent code that the
dealershipgave you. You can use either code to unlock your vehicle. If a
second personal code is entered, the module will erase the first personal
code in favor of the new code.
