DOOR is pressed.

Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter
is
lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your dealer. Remember to bring the remaining
transmitter with you when
you go to your dealer. When
the dealer matches
the replacement transmitter to your
vehicle, the remaining transmitter must also be matched.
Once the
new transmitter is coded, the lost transmitter
will
not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many different
vehicles as you own, provided they are equipped with
exactly the same model system
. (General Motors offers
several different models
of these systems on their vehicles.) Each vehicle can
have only two transmitters
matched to
it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain
transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the batteries are weak if the transmitter
won’t work at the normal range
in any location. If you
have to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter
works, it’s probably time to change the batteries.
For battery replacement,
use two DuracellB
batteries, type
DL-2016, or
a similar type.

lower body may not be warm enough.

body through the front instrument panel outlets, while
