Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers -- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won't open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren't locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better off whenever you drive your vehicle.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use your key or keyless entry
transmitter, if equipped.
Power Door Locks
Press the power door lock
switch located on the door
near the handle to lock or
unlock all doors.

2-5
The rear doors do not have power door lock switches.
The manual lever on each front and rear door works
only on that door's lock. It won't lock or unlock all the
doors. Push the manual lever rearward to unlock and
forward to lock.
Last Door Closed Locking
This feature allows the doors to be locked while the
passengers are leaving the vehicle. This also provides a
brief time period after all the doors are closed, but
before the doors lock, in which the doors may be
reopened. Last door closed locking can be programmed
by the owner.
Last door closed locking is activated by either the power
door lock switch inside the vehicle or by pressing
the LOCK on the remote keyless entry transmitter
(if equipped). After pressing the power door lock switch
once, three chimes will be heard. The three chimes
indicate that the last door closed locking has
been activated.
The driver has three possible options once the last door
closed locking is activated:

Cancel the last door closed locking by pressing
the unlock switch or by fully inserting the key
in the ignition.

Override the last door closed locking feature and
lock the doors immediately by pressing the lock
switch a second time.

Let the last door closed locking feature complete the
locking of the vehicle.

2-9
Keyless Entry System (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and unlock
your doors or unlock your trunk from about 3 feet (1 m)
up to 30 feet (9 m) away using the remote keyless entry
transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
Your keyless entry system operates on a radio frequency
subject to Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Rules and with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device complies with RSS
-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.Changes or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry 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 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.

Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.

2-10 Operation
Press UNLOCK once to
unlock the driver's door and
to turn the interior lamps on
(see ªIllumination on
Remote Activationº in the
Index for more details).
Press UNLOCK again within five seconds to
unlock all doors.
To lock all doors, press LOCK. To unlock the trunk,
press the trunk symbol on the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The trunk will only unlock when the vehicle
is in PARK (P).
Remote Alarm
When you press the alarm button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter, the headlamps will flash, the horn will
sound repeatedly and the interior lamps will illuminate.This will allow you to attract attention if needed.
The alarm will continue until:

The driver presses the alarm button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter a second time,

the ignition is turned to ON or

110 seconds has elapsed.
Remote Activation Verification (RAV)
This feature helps provide audible and/or visible feedback
that a remote keyless entry lock or unlock command has
been received and executed. The ignition must be in OFF
for the remote activation verification to work.
You may select one of four operating modes for the
reception of a lock command. You may also select one
of four operating modes for the reception of an unlock
command. The selection and programming of the lock
and unlock modes are independent of each other.
The following modes are available for either lock or
unlock verification:
Mode 1: No Verification
Mode 2: Horn Chirp only
Mode 3: Headlamp and Parking Lamp Flash only
Mode 4: Horn Chirp and Headlamp and Parking
Lamp Flash

2-11
The operating mode of the remote activation verification
lock (RAV) feature will be changed when the driver
performs the following sequence with the doors closed
and the ignition key in ON:
1. Press and hold down the power door lock switch in
the lock position.
2. While holding the door lock switch, press and
release the remote keyless entry transmitter
LOCK button. This button press will initialize the
customization mode. Upon initiation of this mode,
the chime will sound the number of chimes
corresponding to the current RAV lock mode.
3. Each additional press of the remote keyless entry
transmitter LOCK button will cause the vehicle to
advance to the RAV lock mode by one, starting from
the current RAV lock mode.
4. If cycled beyond RAV lock Mode 4, the vehicle will
enter RAV lock Mode 1. When the door lock switch
is released, the vehicle will remain in the most recent
RAV lock mode.
Disconnecting the battery for up to a year will not
change or delete any previously programmed modes.Illumination on Remote Activation
This feature is included on vehicles with the remote
keyless entry system. The interior illumination will be
activated when an remote keyless entry door unlock
command is received. The ignition must be off for the
remote activation illumination to work. The interior
lamps will illuminate until the ignition is turned to
ON or until the illumination period of 40 seconds
has elapsed.
If during the illumination period, a door is opened, the
timed illumination period will be cancelled, though the
interior lamps will remain on until all doors are closed.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry 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.

2-12 Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about three 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.
NOTICE:
When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.
To replace your battery:
1. Insert a flat object like a dime into the slot on the
back of the transmitter. Gently pry apart the front
and back.
2. Gently pry the battery out of the transmitter.
(Do not use a metal object.)
3. Put the new battery into the transmitter as shown on
the transmitter (use a type CR2032 battery).
4. Put the two halves back together. Make sure the
halves are together tightly so water won't get in.
5. Resynchronize and then test the transmitter.

2-13 Resynchronization
After you have changed the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter, you will need to resynchronize the
transmitter. To do this, press the LOCK and UNLOCK
buttons at the same time and hold for approximately seven
seconds (or until the horn chirps three times). You will
need to use this procedure if your vehicle has lost battery
power for an extended period of time.
Trunk Lid
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can't see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
If you must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and
the trunk:

Make sure all other windows are shut.

Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on VENT. That will force outside air into
your vehicle. See ªComfort Controlsº in
the Index.

If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
Trunk Lock
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the key and
turn it clockwise.
You can also use the remote keyless entry transmitter, if
your vehicle is equipped.

2-14 Remote Trunk Release
Press the button on the left
side of the instrument panel
to unlock the trunk from
inside your vehicle.
Your vehicle must be in
PARK (P).
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft
-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal. However, there are ways you can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it's an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so
don't do it.When you park your vehicle and open the driver's door,
you'll hear a chime reminding you to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you. Always do this.
Your ignition and transaxle will be locked.
And remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle, it's best to lock it up and take your keys.
But what if you have to leave your ignition key?

If possible, park in a busy, well lit area.

Put your valuables in a storage area, like your
trunk or glove box. Be sure to close and lock the
storage area.

Close all windows.

Lock the glove box.

Lock all the doors except the driver's.

Then take the remote keyless entry transmitter
with you.
