When installing the new batteries, be sure to place
the positive (+) side down as marked. Snap the two
halves back together.Replacement/additional transmittersIn the event a transmitter is lost, a new one may
be purchased from your dealer.
To program replacement or additional transmitters
you must have all the transmitters intended for use
on your vehicle.
Initiating the following procedure erases all prior
programmed transmitters, thus ALL must be
reprogrammed at the same time.
1. Enter the factory keyless entry code. Your
personal code will not allow programming.
2. Press the 1/2 button.3. Press one button on each of the transmitters to
be programmed. Each transmitter button must
be pressed within seven (7) seconds of the
prior one. Each time a transmitter is
successfully programmed, all of the vehicle
doors will lock and then unlock to verify
programming. If the doors did not lock/unlock,
your transmitter was not programmed.
Additional transmitters may be purchased from your
dealer (remote entry system will work with up to
four transmitters). Follow the same programming
procedure as above.

126NOTE:All transmitters to be used on your vehicle
must be programmed/reprogrammed at the same
time.Battery SaverWhen the ignition is turned off, the vehicle will
turn off battery voltage to the interior lights after 45
minutes.
This will prevent draining of the battery if those
lights have been left on inadvertently or if a door is
not completely closed. Battery voltage to these
lamps will be restored when the keyless entry
keypad is used, the remote entry transmitter is
used, any door is opened, the trunk is opened, or
the ignition key is turned to the ON position.
Anti-theft SystemWhen armed, this system helps protect your vehicle
against break-ins or theft by monitoring all doors,
the hood, and the trunk lock cylinder.
When an unauthorized entry occurs, the system
triggers and will:q
flash the headlamps, parking lamps, interior
lamps, and alarm indicator light
q
honk the horn
q
prevent the engine from starting
NOTE:The factory installed Remote Entry System
has a PANIC feature that also chirps the vehicle
horn and flashes the interior/exterior lamps when
the PANIC button on the remote entry transmitter
is pushed.The PANIC alarm and the Anti-Theft
alarm are two separate features.Both the
anti-theft alarm and the PANIC feature can be
active at the same time.

To tell the difference between a PANIC alarm and
a triggered Anti-Theft alarm:q
only the Anti-Theft alarm will cause the alarm
indicator light (located in the center of the
instrument cluster) to flash on and off.
q
only the Anti-Theft alarm will prevent the
engine from starting.
For more information on the PANIC alarm, see
Remote Entry Systemin the Index.
Arming the SystemTo arm the system, do the following four steps in
sequence.
1. Remove the key from the ignition.
2. Open any door. The alarm indicator light will
start flashing to remind you to arm the system.3. Lock the doors by using the power door lock
switch, pressing the remote entry transmitter
LOCK control or pressing the last two buttons
(7/8, 9/0) of the keyless entry keypad.
The alarm indicator will now glow steadily.
4. Close all doors. The alarm indicator light will
then remain on steadily for approximately 30
more seconds and then go out. When the light
goes out the system is armed.
NOTE:Be sure to close all doors completely. If
not, the alarm indicator light will remain on.
Remember, your anti-theft system is armed only
after the alarm indicator light remains on steadily
for approximately 30 seconds after the last door is
closed, and then goes out.
