match the transmitters yourself, see your Chevrolet
dealer.
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.
Use two batteries, type
DL20 16, or a similar type.

Automatic transmission:
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
Your engine won’t start in any other position -- that’s a
safety feature.
To restart when you’re already moving,
use NEUTRAL
(N) only.
NOTICE:
Don’t try to shift to PARK (P) if your Chevrolet
is moving. If you do, you could damage the
transmission. Shift to PARK (P) only when your
vehicle is stopped.
Manual transmission:
The gear selector should be in NEUTRAL (N). Hold the
clutch pedal to
the floor and start the engine. Your
vehicle won’t start if the clutch pedal is not all the way
down
-- that’s a safety feature.
To start your V6 engine:
1. Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn your
ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go
of the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warm.
NOTICE:
Holding your key in START for longer than
15 seconds at a time will cause your battery to be
drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can
damage your starter motor.
2. If it doesn’t start right away, hold your key in
START for about three to five seconds at
a time until
your engine starts. Wait about
15 seconds between
each try to help avoid draining your battery.
3. If your engine won’t start (or starts but then stops), it
could be flooded with too much gasoline.
Try pushing
your accelerator pedal all the way
to the floor and
holding
it there as you hold the key in START for
about three seconds.
If the car starts briefly but then
stops again, do the same thing, but this time keep the
pedal
down for five or six seconds. This clears the
extra gasoline
from the engine. After waiting about 15
seconds, repeat the normal starting procedure.
