RAV Lock Mode Programming
Before your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 3. The mode to which your
vehicle was programmed may have been changed since
it left the factory. To determine the RAV lock mode to
which your vehicle is programmed, or to program your
vehicle to a different mode, do the following:
1. Close all doors and turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Press and hold down the power door lock switch in
the lock position.
3. 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. Count the number of chimes
you hear. The number of chimes tells you which
mode your vehicle is set for. (If you do not wish to
change the current mode, you can either exit the
programming mode by following the instructions
listed here or program the next feature available on
your vehicle).4. 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.
5. 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.
RAV Unlock Mode Programming
Before your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 1. The mode to which your
vehicle was programmed may have been changed since
it left the factory. To determine the RAV unlock mode to
which your vehicle is programmed or to program your
vehicle to a different mode, do the following:
1. Close all doors and turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Press and hold down the power door lock switch in
the unlock position.

3. While holding the door lock switch, press and
release the remote keyless entry transmitter
UNLOCK button. This button press will initialize
the customization mode. Upon initiation of this
mode, the chime will sound. Count the number of
chimes you hear. The number of chimes tells you
which mode your vehicle is set for. (If you do not
wish to change the current mode, you can either exit
the programming mode by following the instructions
listed here or program the next feature available on
your vehicle).
4. Each additional press of the remote keyless entry
transmitter UNLOCK button will cause the vehicle
to advance the RAV unlock mode by one, starting
from the current RAV unlock mode.
5. If cycled beyond RAV unlock Mode 4, the vehicle
will enter RAV unlock Mode 1. When the door lock
switch is released, the vehicle will remain in the
most recent RAV unlock mode.
The mode you selected is now set. You can either
exit the programming mode by following the
instructions above or program the next feature
available on your vehicle.
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 a 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 a maximum of four
transmitters matched to it.

Volume Control: You can control the volume of
the OnStar System using either the volume knob on
the radio or, if equipped, the steering wheel
volume controls.
(Telltale Light): This light will indicate the status
of the system. A solid green light will come on when
you start the vehicle to let you know that the system is
on and is ready to make or receive calls.
If the light blinks green, it means that an incoming or
outgoing call is in progress. Press the Communication
button if you notice the light blinking and you are not
on a call.
The light will be red in the event of an OnStar system
malfunction. If this occurs press the OnStar Services
button to attempt to contact an advisor. If the connection
is made, the advisor will assist you with steps to take to
make sure that the system is functioning properly. If you
cannot contact the advisor, take your vehicle to your
dealership as soon as possible for assistance.
Cellular Antenna: The cellular antenna on the outside
of your vehicle is critical to effective communications
using the OnStar system. Optimum cellular reception
can be obtained when the mast is straight up and down.
OnStar Services
The following services are available within OnStar
service plans. Your vehicle comes with a specific
one
-year service plan that allows use of some or
all of the following services.

Automatic Notification of Air Bag Deployment: If
an air bag deploys, a priority emergency signal is
automatically sent to the center. An advisor will locate
your vehicle's position, try to contact you and assist
you in the situation. If the center is unable to contact
you, an emergency service provider will be contacted.

Stolen Vehicle Tracking: Call the center at
1
-888-4-ONSTAR (1-888-466-7827) to report your
vehicle stolen. The system can then attempt to locate
and track your vehicle and the advisor will assist the
proper authorities.

Roadside Assistance with Location: For vehicle
breakdowns, press the OnStar Services button. An
advisor will contact the appropriate help.

Remote Diagnostics: If an instrument panel
light comes on, press the OnStar services button.
An advisor can perform a check of the engine
on
-board computer, and recommend what action
needs to be taken.

NOTICE:
If the other system isn't a 12-volt system with a
negative ground, both vehicles can be damaged.
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt
battery with a negative ground system.
2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables
can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren't touching
each other. If they are, it could cause a ground
connection you don't want. You wouldn't be able to
start your vehicle, and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the vehicles rolling, set
the parking brake firmly on both vehicles involved in
the jump start procedure. Put an automatic transaxle
in PARK (P) or a manual transaxle in NEUTRAL
before setting the parking brake.
NOTICE:
If you leave your radio on, it could be badly
damaged. The repairs wouldn't be covered by
your warranty.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug
unnecessary accessories plugged into the cigarette
lighter or in the accessory power outlets. Turn off the
radio and all lamps that aren't needed. This will
avoid sparks and help save both batteries. And it
could save your radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the batteries. Find the
positive (+) and negative (
-) terminal locations on
each vehicle. Your vehicle has a remote positive (+)
jump starting terminal. The terminal is on the same
side of the engine compartment as your battery. See
ªEngine Compartment Overviewº in the Index for
more information on location.

5-5
To uncover the remote positive (+) terminal, squeeze
the sides of the red plastic cap and pull the cap
toward you. You should always use the remote
positive (+) terminal instead of the positive (+)
terminal on your battery.
CAUTION:
An electric fan can start up even when the engine
is not running and can injure you. Keep hands,
clothing and tools away from any underhood
electric fan.
CAUTION:
Using a match near a battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have been hurt doing this,
and some have been blinded. Use a flashlight if
you need more light.
Be sure the battery has enough water. You don't
need to add water to the ACDelco
battery
installed in every new GM vehicle. But if a
battery has filler caps, be sure the right amount
of fluid is there. If it is low, add water to take
care of that first. If you don't, explosive gas could
be present.
Battery fluid contains acid that can burn you.
Don't get it on you. If you accidentally get it in
your eyes or on your skin, flush the place with
water and get medical help immediately.

8. Now connect the black negative (-) cable to the
negative (
-) terminal location on the vehicle with the
good battery. Use a remote negative (
-) terminal if
the vehicle has one.
Don't let the other end touch anything until the next
step. The other end of the negative (
-) cable doesn't
go to the dead battery. It goes to a heavy, unpainted
metal engine part or to a remote negative (
-) terminal
on the vehicle with the dead battery.
9. Connect the other end of the negative (-) cable at
least 18 inches (45 cm) away from the dead battery,
but not near engine parts that move. The electrical
connection is just as good there, and the chance of
sparks getting back to the battery is much less.
10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery.
If it won't start after a few tries, it probably
needs service.
