Transmitter circuit board
To register a new transmitter with the
keyless entry system, it is necessary to
program the transmitter ’s code (identifica-
tion 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 accordance with the
following procedure:
1. Firmly close the doors and the rear
gate (Station wagon) or trunk lid (Sedan).
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.
1) LOCK
2) ON
(2) Insert the key into the ignition
switch, then turn it from the “LOCK ” position to the
“ON ”position 10 times
within 15 seconds.
NOTE . When you complete step (2), an
electronic tone will sound once. . 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 . When part 4 of the procedure is
completed, an electronic tone will
sound for 30 seconds.. If you do not perform the operations
in part 4 within 15 seconds, an error
will occur and the electronic tone will
not sound. In this event, perform the
registration steps again beginning with
part 3 of the procedure.

5. Before the electronic tone stops
sounding, press the power door lock knob
to the“LOCK ”side the same number of
times as the leftmost digit of the transmit-
ter code. For example, press the lock knob
eight times if the leftmost digit of the code
is 8. NOTE . The electronic tone will stop sound-
ing when you start entering the num-
ber.. If you do not start entering the
number using the lock knob before
the electronic tone stops sounding, an
error will occur. In this event, perform
the registration steps again beginning
with part 3 of the procedure.. If the interval between one push of the knob 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, pull the lock knob to the
“UN-
LOCK ”side within five seconds.
NOTE . An electronic tone will sound.
. If you pull the lock knob to the
“ UNLOCK ”side when more than five
seconds have passed, an error will
occur. In this event, perform the proce-
dure again beginning with part 4. If an
error occurs six times, perform the
procedure again starting with part 3. 7. Perform parts 5 and 6 of the procedure
for each of the remaining digits of the
transmitter code beginning with the sec-
ond digit (counting from the left) and
finishing with the eighth digit. NOTE .
When you finish entering the eighth
digit, an electronic tone will sound for
30 seconds.. If the interval between one push of
the knob 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 lock knob
to again enter the transmitter code begin-
ning with the leftmost digit. NOTE
If you do not start entering the number
using the lock knob before the electro-
nic tone stops sounding, an error will
occur. In this event, perform the proce-
dure again beginning with part 3.
9. When you have finished entering the
code a second time, an electronic tone will
sound for one second to indicate comple-
tion of registration, provided the code Keys and doors
