using a key.
•open the trunk.
•recall memory seat/power mirrors positions (if equipped).
The keypad can be operated with the factory set 5–digit entry code; this
code is located on the owner’s wallet card in the glove box and is
available from your authorized dealer. You can also create up to three of
your own 5–digit personal entry codes.
When pressing the controls on the keypad, press the middle of the
controls to ensure a good activation.

2. Within five seconds press the 1•2 on the keypad.
3. Enter your personal 5-digit code. Each number must be entered
within five seconds of each other.
4. For memory recall feature, enter the sixth digit 1•2 to store driver 1
settings or 3•4 to store driver 2 settings.
Note:Pressing 5•6, 7•8, or 9•0 keypad numbers as a sixth digit
will not recall a driver memory setting.
Note:The factory-set code cannot be associated with a memory setting.

Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
