Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When a new Camaro is delivered, the
dealer removes the plugs from the door
keys and gives them to the first owner.
The ignition keys don’t have plugs.
Instead, they have bar-coded key tags.
These tags may be removed by your
dealer or even before
the car is delivered to
your dealer.
Each plug has
a code on it that tells your
dealer or
a qualified locksmith how to
make extra door keys. Keep the plugs in
a
safe place. If you lose your door keys,
you’ll be able to have new ones made
using these plugs. If
you need
a new ignition key, go to you1
Chevrolet dealer, who can obtain the
correct key code. In an emergency, call
Chevrolet Roadside Assistance at
1 -800-CHEV-USA.
NOTICE:
Your Chevrolet has a number of new
features that can help prevent theft.
But you can have a lot of trouble get-
ting into your vehicle
if you ever lock
your keys inside.
You may even have
to damage your vehicle to get in. So
be sure you have extra keys.

Remote Lock Control (Option)
If your Chevrolet has this option, you can
lock and unlock your doors or unlock
your hatch from about
30 feet (9 m) using
the key chain transmitter supplied with
your vehicle.
Your Remote Lock Control operates on a
radio frequency subject to Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
Rules.
This device complies with Part
15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation. Should interference
to this system occur,
try this:
0 Check to determine if battery
replacement is necessary. See the
instructions on battery replacement.
0 Check the distance. You may be too
far from your vehicle. This product
has a maximum range.
0 Check the location. Other vehicles or
objects may be blocking the signal.
See your Chevrolet dealer or a
qualified technician for service.
Changes or modifications to this system
by other than an authorized service
facility could void authorization to use
this equipment.
Operation
The driver’s door will unlock
automatically when “UNLOCK’ is
pressed. If “UNLOCK” is pressed again
within five seconds, the passenger door
will also unlock. All doors will
lock when
“DOOR” is pressed. The hatch will
unlock when the opened trunk symbol is
pressed, but only when the ignition switch
is not
in “Run”, and the transmission is in
“P’ (Park) if you have an automatic
transmission. If you have a manual transmission, the
parking brake must be
set.
The system will
turn on the interior lights
for about
40 seconds, or until the ignition
switch is turned to “Run”, when you
unlock the doors or hatch. The interior
lights will come on for about two seconds
when you lock the doors.
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 any remaining
transmitters with you when you
go to
your dealer. When the dealer matches the
replacement transmitter to your vehicle,
the remaining transmitters 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.
To match transmitters to your vehicle:
1. Find the Data Link Connector (DLC).
It is
in the bottom of the instrument
panel near the steering column.
2. Insert one end of a fused jumper into
terminal
“G.” Terminal “G” is the top
terminal on the far right.
jumper into terminal “A.” Terminal
“A” is the bottom terminal on the far
left.
3. Insert the other end of the fused
You have grounded the program input
line. You should hear the door locks lock
and unlock within one to three seconds.
When matching transmitters, the first
transmitter code matched
will be stored in
both memories until a second transmitter
is matched. This means
that the second transmitter
will not work until
it is
matched
in step 5.
4. Press any button on the first
transmitter. The door locks should
lock and unlock.
5. Press any button on the second
transmitter. The door locks should
lock and unlock.
6. Remove the fused jumper from the
DLC. The system
will not work unless
the jumper
is removed.

[f the transmitters don’t work, or if you’d
rather not match the transmitters yourself,
see your Chevrolet dealer.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your
key chain transmitter should last about
:wo years.
You can tell the batteries are weak if the
:ransmitter won’t work at the normal
-ange
in any location. If you have to get
:lose
to your vehicle before the
:ransmitter works, it’s probably time to
:hange the batteries.
