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.
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.

2-13
To replace the battery do the following:
1. Insert a flat object like a coin into the slot on the side
of the transmitter and twist to separate the halves.
2. Gently pry the battery out of the transmitter. Do not
use the metal flanges to ªpop out º the battery.
3. Put the new battery into the transmitter as shown on
the transmitter. Use a type CR2032 battery, or
equivalent type.
4. Reassemble the transmitter. Make sure the halves are
snapped together tightly so water will not get in.
5. Check the transmitter operation.
