With this feature you can turn on your interior lamps, lock and unlock
your doors, or unlock your trunk from up to
30 feet (9 m) using the key
chain transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
Your Keyless Entry System is intended
to be used as a supplementary
vehicle entry device. It
is not intended to replace, but rather should be
used
in conjunction with a door lock key. It operates on a radio frequency

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,

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.
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.
