2. Close the driver ’s door.
3. Press and release any button on the transmitter that you wish to
program into the system. The horn will sound two times to indicate
that the transmitter has been programmed.

1. After all of your transmitters are programmed, remove the key fromthe ignition switch.
The horn will sound three times to indicate that the system has exited
the programming mode.
2. Make sure that the keyless entry system properly operates by
operating each transmitter. n Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry system has four memory loca-
tions to store transmitter codes, giving it the ability to operate with up
to four transmitters. When you lose a transmitter, the lost transmitter ’s
code remains in the memory. For security reasons, lost transmitter
codes should be deleted from the memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four transmitter codes into
the system. If you have only one current transmitter, program it four

times. If you have two current transmitters, program each one twice. If
you have three current transmitters, program two of them once and
the third one twice. This process will leave only current transmittercodes in the system ’s memory.
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 youare programming your transmitters, it is possible that their trans-mitter code will be programmed into your system, allowing themunauthorized access to your vehicle.
Security system (if equipped)
The security system helps to protect your vehicle and valuables from
theft. The horn sounds and the parking lights flash if someone attempts
to break into your vehicle. The starter motor is also interrupted to prevent
starting the vehicle without a key.
The system can be armed and disarmed with the remote transmitter.
The system does not operate when the key is inserted into the ignitionswitch. System operation
The security system will give the following alarm indications when trig-
gered: The parking lights will flash and the horn will sound intermittently.
In addition, the starter motor will not operate. The alarm automatically resets after 30 seconds; however, the
alarm will reactivate if the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarmwill continue for six times if any sensor continues to be activated.
The alarm is triggered by: Opening a door, the rear gate or trunk lid.
Application of physical shock to the vehicle (e.g. breaking glass or
forced entry). Note that there are two alarm levels for shock: warning

and triggers 2 warning chirps on the horn and two flashes on the
lights as a deterrent to would be vandals. In alarm mode, higher lev-
