Synchronization
Your Remote
Lock Control system is equipped with a
security system that prevents anyone from recording and
playing back your signal. The transmitter does not send
the
same signal twice to the receiver. The receiver will not
respond to
a signal that has been sent to it more than once.
To resynchronize your transmitter and receiver, follow
these directions:
1. Stand close to your vehicle,
2. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on
the transmitter at the same time,
3. Hold the buttons for five seconds. In this time, the
doors should lock and unlock once. This confirms
the resynchronization. If the doors do not lock and
unlock, see your retailer for service.
