Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain 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.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your key chain
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. For
battery replacement, use one Duracell@ battery, type
DL-2032, or
a similar type.
To replace the battery:
1. Insert a coin into the notch near the keyring. Turn the
coin counterclockwise to separate
the two halves of
the transmitter.
