SmartKey
Your vehicle comes supplied with two
SmartKeys, each with remote control and
a removable mechanical key. The locking
tabs for the mechanical key portion of the
two keys are a different color to help dis-
tinguish each key unit.
The SmartKey provides an extended oper-
ating range. To prevent theft, however, it is
advisable to only unlock the vehicle when
you are in close proximity to it.
The SmartKey centrally locks and unlocks:

Step 9:
Press “training” button on the garage
door opener motor head unit.
The “training light” is activated.
You have 30 seconds to initiate the
following step.
Step 10:
Firmly press, hold for two seconds and
release the programmed integrated
signal transmitter button (2, 3
or4).
Step 11:
Press, hold for two seconds and

Gate operator/Canadian programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission
which may not be long enough for the inte-
grated signal transmitter to pick up the
signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators
are designed to “time-out” in the same
manner.
If you live in Canada or if you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
(regardless of where you live) by using the
programming procedures, replace step 4
with the following:Step 4:
Continue to press and hold the inte-
grated signal transmitter button (2,
3 or4) while you press and re-press
(“cycle”) your hand-held remote con-
trol transmitter6 every two seconds
until the frequency signal has been
learned. Upon successful training, the
indicator lamp1 will flash slowly and
then rapidly after several seconds.
Proceed with programming step 5 and
step 6 to complete.
Operation of integrated remote control
Switch on the ignition.
Select and press the appropriate inte-
grated signal transmitter button (2,
3 or4) to activate the remote con-
trolled device.
The integrated remote control trans-
mitter continues to send the signal as
long as the button is pressed – up to
20 seconds.

signal transmitter button
To program a device using a signal trans-
mitter button previously trained, follow
these steps:
Press and hold the desired signal trans-
mitter button (2, 3 or4). Do not
release the button.
The indicator lamp will begin to flash af-
ter 20 seconds. Without releasing the
integrated signal transmitter button,
