to the following two conditions: (1) Thisdevice may not cause harmful inter-ference, and (2) this device mustaccept any interference received, in-cluding interference that may causeundesired operation.
Changes or modifications not ex-pressly approved by the party respon-sible for compliance could void theuser’s authority to operate the equip-ment.
The transmitter for the remote keylessentry system is located inside the keyhead.
The remote keyless entry system has thefollowing functions.
.Locking and unlocking the doors andrear gatewithout a key
.Unlocking the rear gate without key
.Sounding a panic alarm
.Arming and disarming the alarm sys-tem. For detailed information, refer to“Alarm system”F2-16.
The operable distance of the remotekeyless entry system is approximately 30feet (10 meters). However, this distancewill vary depending on environmentalconditions.
The system’s operable distance will beshorter in areas near a facility or electronic
equipment emitting strong radio wavessuch as a power plant, broadcast station,TV tower, or remote controller of homeelectronic appliances.
NOTE
The remote keyless entry system doesnot operate when the ignition key isinserted in the ignition switch or whenany of the doors or the rear gate is notfully closed.

&Replacing lost transmitters
If you lose a transmitter or want topurchase additional transmitters (up tofour can be programmed), you should re-program all of your transmitters for secur-ity reasons. It is recommended that youhave your dealer program all of yourtransmittersinto your system.
!Programming the transmitters
The remote keyless entry system isequipped witha special code learningfeature that allows you to program newtransmitter codes into the system or todelete old ones. The system can learn upto four unique transmitter codes. The fourtransmitter codes may be the same or

NOTE
.When you finish entering the eighthdigit, an electronic tone will sound for30 seconds..If the interval between one push ofthe switch and the next exceeds 5seconds, an error will occur. In thisevent, perform the procedure againbeginning with part 4. If an error occurssix times, perform the procedure againstarting with part 3.
8. Before the electronic tone stopssounding, use the power door lockingswitch to reenter the transmitter codebeginningwith the leftmost digit.
NOTE
If you do not start entering the numberusing the lock knob before the electro-nic tone stops sounding, an error willoccur. In this event, perform the proce-dure again beginning with part 3.
9. When you have finished entering thecode a second time, an electronic tone willsound for 1 second and automatic doorlocking and unlocking operation will takeplace once to indicate completion ofregistration, provided the code enteredthe second time is identical to that enteredthe first time.
NOTE
If the code entered the second time isnot identical to the code entered thefirst time, an error will occur. In thisevent, perform the procedure againbeginning with part 5. If an error occursfive times, perform the procedure againstarting with part 3.
10. If you wish to program another trans-mitter code into the system (up to fourtransmitter codes can be programmed intothe system), perform the procedure begin-ning with part 4. When you have finishedprogramming all of the necessary trans-mitter codes into the system, remove thekey from the ignition switch.
11. Test every registered transmitter toconfirm correctoperation.
!Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the remote keylessentry system has four memory locations tostore transmitter codes, giving it the abilityto operate with up to four transmitters.When you lose a transmitter, the losttransmitter’s code remains in the memory.For security reasons, lost transmittercodes should be deleted from the mem-ory.
To delete old transmitter codes, programfour transmitter codes into the system. If
you have only one current transmitter,program it four times. If you have twocurrent transmitters, program each onetwice. If you have three current transmit-ters, program two of them once and thethird one twice. This process will leaveonly current transmitter codes in thesystem’s memory.
NOTE
Make sure no one else is operatingtheir keyless entry system within rangeof your vehicle when programmingtransmitters. If someone else were tooperate their remote transmitter whileyou are programming your transmit-ters, it is possible that their transmittercode will be programmed into yoursystem, allowing them unauthorizedaccess to your vehicle.

started. The fuel injection system auto-matically lowers the idle speed as theengine warms up.
While the engine is warming up, makesure that the select lever is at the“P”or“N”position and that the parking brake isapplied.
NOTE
.The engine may be difficult to startwhen the battery has been discon-nected and reconnected (for mainte-nance or other purposes). This diffi-culty is caused by the electronicallycontrolled throttle’sself-diagnosisfunction. To overcome it, keep theignition switch in the“ON”positionfor approximately 10 seconds beforestartingthe engine..To p r o t e c t t h e e n g i n e w h i l e t h eselect lever is in the“P”or“N”position, the engine is controlled sothat the engine speed may not becometoo high even if the accelerator pedal isdepressed hard.
Stopping the engine
WARNING
Do not stop the engine when thevehicle is moving. This will causeloss of power to the power steeringand the brakebooster, making steer-ing and braking more difficult. Itcould also result in accidental acti-vation of the“LOCK”position on theignition switch, causing the steeringwheel to lock.
The ignition switch should be turned offonly whenthe vehicle is stopped and theengine is idling.
Remote engine start system
(dealer option)
WARNING
.Do not start the engine using theremote start system in an en-closed environment (e.g. closedgarage). Prolonged operation ofa motor vehicle in an enclosedenvironment can cause a harmfulbuild-up of Carbon Monoxide.Carbon Monoxide is harmful toyour health. Exposure to highlevels of Carbon Monoxide cancause headaches, dizziness or inextreme cases unconsciousnessand/or death.
.Before performing any servicingof the vehicle, temporarily placethe remote engine start system inservice mode to prevent thesystem from unexpectedly start-ing the engine.
