There is a master key that
works in all of the lock
cylinders (driver’s door, trunk, ignition and
glove
box).
There is also a VALET key
which only operates the
driver’s door and the
ignition. Your
vehicle has the PASS-Key@
Ill vehicle theft
system. Both the master and VALET key have a
transponder
in the key head that matches a decoder in
the vehicle’s instrument panel.
If a replacement key
or any additional key is needed, you must purchase this
key from your dealer. The key will have
PK3@ stamped
on it. Keep the bar code tag that came with the
original keys. Give this tag to your dealer
if you need a
new key made.
Any new PASS-Key@
Ill key must be programmed
before it will start your vehicle. See
PASS-Kef)
111 Operation on page 2-23 for more information on
programming your new key.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Onstar@ System
with an active subscription and you lock your keys inside
the vehicle, Onstar@ may be able to send a command
to unlock your vehicle. See
OnStap System on
page
2-40 for more information.
Notice: Your vehicle has a number of features that
can help prevent theft. You can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle
if you ever lock
your keys inside. You may even have to damage
your vehicle to get in.
So be sure you have
spare keys.

Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
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.
The numbers on the back
of the transmitters correspond
to DRIVER

See
Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 3-57 for
more information.

door will unlock and the
exterior lamps may
flash twice when this
button is pressed.
If you have the optional fuel door lock, the fuel door will
also unlock.
If the unlock button is pressed again within five seconds,
all the doors will unlock. Pressing the unlock button
will also illuminate the interior lamps. See “Entry
Lighting” under
Interior Lamps on page 3-16 and
“Security Feedback later in this section.
@ (Lock): All doors will lock, the exterior lamps may
flash once and the horn may chirp when this button
is pressed. See “Security Feedback” later in this section.
Pressing the lock button may also turn
off the interior
lamps
if illuminated. If you have the optional fuel
door lock, the fuel door will also lock when this button is
pressed.

2. Press and hold the driver’s power door lock switch
3. Press the button with the trunk symbol on the
transmitter. The transmitter will remain in its
current mode and the horn will chirp as feedback.
4. Press the button with the trunk symbol again. Each
time the transmitter’s trunk button is pressed, the
mode will advance by one, going from Mode
2 to 3
to 4, etc. and the horn will chirp as feedback.
5. Release the power door lock switch. The security
feedback will remain in the most recent mode
selected.
This procedure changes the mode for the transmitter
used
to change this setting. The procedure will need to
be repeated for the second transmitter.
To verify the mode selected, remove the key from the
ignition and close all

vehicle. Press the lock button
on the transmitter to be
verified and confirm the appropriate feedback. Repeat with the unlock button.
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.
See your dealer
to match additional transmitters to your
vehicle.
