This system has a range of about 3 feet (1 m) up to
30 feet (9 m). At times you may notice a decrease in
range. This is normal for any remote lock control
system. If the transmitter does not work or if you
have to stand closer to your vehicle for the transmitter
to work, try this:
Check to determine if battery replacement or
resynchronization is necessary. See the instructions
that follow.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or
right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.
If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.Operation
The driver's door will unlock when UNLOCK is
pressed. If UNLOCK is pressed again within five
seconds, all doors will unlock. Pressing the UNLOCK
button will also illuminate the interior lamps. See
ªIlluminated Entryº in the Index. All doors will lock
when LOCK is pressed.
The trunk will unlock when the trunk button is pressed
while the vehicle is in any gear.
Instant Alarm
When the button with the horn symbol on the remote
lock control transmitter is pressed, the horn will sound
and the headlamps and taillamps will flash for up to one
minute. This can be turned off by pressing the instant
alarm button again, unlocking the vehicle with a key or
by turning the ignition on.

Vehicles are delivered programmed in Mode 5. To
change to another mode:
1. Turn the ignition key to OFF.
2. Press and hold the lock position on the driver's
power door lock switch throughout this procedure.
3. Press the trunk button on the transmitter to enter the
programming mode. The transmitter will remain in
its current mode.
4. Press the trunk button again. Each time the trunk
button is pressed, the horn will chirp and the
transmitter will advance to the next mode.
5. Release the power door lock switch.
This procedure changes the mode for only the
transmitter used to change this setting. The procedure
will need to be repeated for the second transmitter.Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote lock control transmitter is coded to prevent
another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any
remaining transmitters with you when you go to your
dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only four transmitters
matched to it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote lock
control transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won't
work at the normal range in any location. If you have to
get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it's probably time to change the battery.
