„ Lost transmitters (keyless entry system)If you lose a transmitter or want to purchase additional
transmitters (up to four can be programmed), you
should re-program all of your transmitters for security
reasons. It is recommended that you have your dealer
program all of your transmitters into your system. TProgramming the transmitters
The keyless entry system is equipped with a special
code learning feature that allows you to program new
transmitter codes into the system or to delete old
ones. The system can learn up to four unique transmit-
ter codes. The four transmitter codes may be the same or different. Programming transmitter codes into system:

Transmitter circuit board
To register a new transmitter with the keyless entry
system, it is necessary to program the transmitter’s
code (identificati on number) into the system. A label
showing the code is affixed to the bag containing the
transmitter, and another is affixed to the circuit board
inside the transmitter. If there is no bag, open the
transmitter case and make a note of the eight-digit
number. Program the number into the system in ac-
cordance with the following procedure:
1. Firmly close the doors.
2. Open the driver’s door, sit on the driver’s seat, and
close the door. 3. Perform the following steps within 45 seconds.
1) Open and close the driver’s door once.

times within 15 seconds.
NOTE y When you complete step 2), an electronic tone
will sound once. y If you do not perform steps 1) and 2) within 45
seconds, an error will occur. An electronic tone
will not sound. In this event, perform the whole
procedure again beginning with part 1. 4. Open and close the door
once within 15 seconds.
NOTE yWhen part 4 of the procedure is completed, an
electronic tone will sound for 30 seconds. y If you do not perform the operations in part 4
within 15 seconds, an error will occur and the elec-
tronic tone will not sound. In this event, perform
the registration steps agai n beginning with part 3
of the procedure.
5. Before the electronic tone stops sounding, push the
lock side of the power door locking switch the same
number of times as the leftmost digit of the transmitter
code. For example, push the locking switch eight

times if the leftmost digit of the code is 8.
NOTE yThe electronic tone will stop sounding when you
start entering the number. y If you do not start enteri ng the number using the
locking switch before the electronic tone stops
sounding, an error will occur. In this event, per-
form the registration steps again beginning with
part 3 of the procedure. y If the interval between one push of the switch
and the next exceeds five seconds, an error will
occur. In this event, perform the procedure again
beginning with part 4. If an error occurs six times,
perform the procedure again starting with part 3. 6. When you have finished entering the number, push
the unlock side of the locking switch within five sec-
onds.
NOTE y
An electronic tone will sound.
y If you push the unlock side of the locking switch

with the second digit (counti
ng from the left) and finish-
ing with the eighth digit.
NOTE y When you finish entering the eighth digit, an
electronic tone will sound for 30 seconds. y If the interval between one push of the switch
and the next exceeds five seconds, an error will
occur. In this event, perform the procedure again
beginning with part 4. If an error occurs six times,
perform the procedure again starting with part 3.
8. Before the electronic tone stops sounding, use the
power door locking switch to again enter the transmit-
ter code beginning with the leftmost digit.
NOTE
If you do not start entering the number using the
locking switch before the electronic tone stops
sounding, an error will occur. In this event, per-
form the procedure again beginning with part 3.
9. When you have finished entering the code a sec-
ond time, an electronic tone will sound for one second
to indicate completion of registration, provided the
code entered the second time is identical to that en-
tered the first time.
NOTE
If the code entered the second time is not identical
to the code entered the first time, an error will oc-
cur. In this event, perform the procedure again be-
ginning with part 5. If an error occurs five times,
perform the procedure again starting with part 3.
10.If you wish to program another transmitter code
into the system (up to four transmitter codes can be
programmed into the system ), perform the procedure
beginning with part 4. When you have finished pro-
gramming all of the necessary transmitter codes into
the system, remove the key from the ignition switch.
11.Test every registered transmitter to confirm correct
operation. T Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry system has four
memory locations to store transmitter codes, giving it
the ability to operate with up to four transmitters. When
you lose a transmitter, the lo st transmitter’s code re-
mains in the memory. For security reasons, lost trans-
mitter codes should be deleted from the memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four trans-mitter codes into the system. If you have only one cur-
rent transmitter, program it four times. If you have two
current transmitters, program each one twice. If you
have three current transmit ters, program two of them

once and the third one twice. This process will leave only current transmitter c odes in the system’s memo-
ry.
NOTE
Make sure no one else is operating their keyless
entry system within range of your vehicle when
programming transmitters. If someone else were
to operate their remote transmitter while you are
programming your transmitte rs, it is possible that
their transmitter code will be programmed into
your system, allowing them unauthorized access
to your vehicle.
Alarm systemAlarm system
The alarm system helps to protect your vehicle and
valuables from theft. The horn sounds and the turn
