purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these
objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These
objects will not cause damage to the coded key, but may cause a
momentary issue if they are too close to the key when starting the
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition to the off position, remove
all objects on the key chain away from the coded key and restart the
engine.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.

Replacement keys
If your keys are lost or stolen and you don’t have an extra coded key,
you will need to have your vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. The
key codes need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will
need to be programmed.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.
Programming spare keys
A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle. Only
SecuriLockkeys can be used. To program acoded keyyourself, you
will need two previously programmedcoded keys(keys that already
operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily
accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure.
If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
bring your vehicle to your authorized dealer to have the spare coded
key(s) programmed.
Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously
programmedcoded keyinto the
ignition and turn the ignition from 1
(off) to the 3 (on) position
(maintain ignition in 3 (on) for at
least one second).
2. Turn ignition to 1 (off) and
remove the firstcoded keyfrom
the ignition.
3. Within ten seconds of removing
the firstcoded key,insert the second previously programmedcoded
keyinto the ignition and turn the ignition from 1 (off) to the 3 (on)
position (maintain ignition in 3 (on) for at least one second but no more
than ten seconds).
4. Turn the ignition to 1 (off) and remove the secondcoded keyfrom
the ignition.
5. Within twenty seconds of removing the secondcoded key,insert the
new unprogrammed key (new key) into the ignition and turn the ignition
from 1 (off) to the 3 (on) position (maintain ignition in 3 (on) for at
least one second). This step will program your new key.

Heated seats (if equipped)
WARNING:Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord
injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other physical
conditions, must exercise care when using the seat heater. The seat
heater may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods of time. Do not place anything on the seat that
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion, because this may
cause the seat heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins,
needles, or other pointed objects because this may damage the heating
element which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury.
Note:Do not do the following:
•Place heavy objects on the seat
•Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.
The heated seat control is located on the driver’s or front passenger’s door.
To operate the heated seats:
•Press the indicated side of the
control for maximum heat.
•Press again to deactivate.
•Press the indicated side of the
control for minimum heat.
•Press again to deactivate.
The heated seat module resets at every ignition run cycle. While the
ignition is in the on position, activating the high or low heated seat
switch enables heating mode. When activated, they will turn off
automatically when the ignition is turned to the off position.
