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.Operation
Remote Driver's Door and All Door Unlock
When you press UNLOCK on the remote keyless entry
transmitter, only the driver's door will unlock. If you

and the liftgate will unlock. If you would like all the
doors to unlock the first time you press UNLOCK,
see ªMultifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choicesº
in the Index.
If your vehicle has the content theft

the UNLOCK button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter will disarm the system. See ªContent
Theft
-Deterrentº in the Index for more details.

entry transmitter. See ªPower Door Locksº in the

If your vehicle has the optional dual power sliding
doors, your remote keyless entry transmitter will have
two buttons that have a van symbol on it. The van
symbol on the left is for the driver's side sliding door
and the van symbol on the right is for the passenger's
side sliding door. See ªPower Sliding Doorº later in
this section.
If the power sliding door(s) is locked, first unlock all
doors, then press the van symbol to open the power
sliding door. Press the van symbol again to close the
sliding door(s). See ªRemote Driver's Door and All
Door Unlockº earlier in this section and ªPower Sliding
Doorº later in this section.
You can operate the power sliding door(s) with the
remote keyless entry transmitter only when the
power sliding door override switch(es) on the overhead
console is turned off. See ªPower Sliding Doorº later
in this section.
If your vehicle's fuel filler door is opened, the driver's
side power sliding door will not open completely.
Do not try to force the door. Once the fuel filler
door is closed, the driver's side sliding door can be
opened normally.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.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
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.
