&Replacing lost transmitters
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 secur-
ity reasons. It is recommended that you
have your dealer program all of your
transmitters into your system. ! Programming the transmitters
The remote 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 transmitter codes. The four
transmitter codes may be the same ordifferent. Programming transmitter codes intosystem:
Key unit tag
Transmitter circuit board
To register a new transmitter with the
remote keyless entry system, it is neces- sary to program the transmitter
’s code
(identification number) into the system. A
tag showing the code is affixed to the key
unit, and another is affixed to the circuit
board inside the transmitter. If there is no
tag, 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 ’sdoor,sitonthe
driver ’s seat, and close the door.
3. Perform the following steps within 45 seconds.(1) Open and close the driver ’s door
once. Keys and doors

LOCK”side within 5 seconds.
NOTE . An electronic tone will sound.
. If you pull the lock knob to the
“ UNLOCK ”side when more than 5
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 5
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 1 second to indicate completion
of registration, provided the code entered
the second time is identical to that entered
the first time. NOTE
If the code entered the second time is
not identical to the code entered the
first time, an error will occur. In this
event, perform the procedure again
beginning with part 5. If an error occurs
five times, perform the procedure again
starting with part 3.
10. If you wish to program another trans-
mitter code into the system (up to four
transmitter codes can be programmed into
the system), perform the procedure begin-
ning with part 4. When you have finished
programming all of the necessary trans-
mitter codes into the system, remove the
key from the ignition switch.
11. Test every registered transmitter to
confirm correct operation.
!
Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the remote 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 losttransmitter ’s code remains in the memory.
For security reasons, lost transmitter
codes should be deleted from the mem-
ory.
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 transmit-
ters, program two of them once and the
third one twice. This process will leave
only current transmitter codes in thesystem ’s memory. Keys and doors

NOTE
Make sure no one else is operating
their remote keyless entry system with-
in range of your vehicle when program-
ming transmitters. If someone else
were to operate their remote transmit-
ter while you are programming your
transmitters, it is possible that their
transmitter code will be programmed
into your system, allowing them un-
authorized access to your vehicle. Alarm system
The alarm system helps to protect your
vehicle and valuables from theft. The horn
sounds and the turn signal lights flash if
someone attempts to break into your
vehicle. The starter motor is also inter-
rupted 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 ignition switch.
