transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter
is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your retailer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your retailer.
When the retailer matches the replacement transmitter to
your vehicle, the’remaining transmitters must

several different ,models
of these systems on their
vehicles.) Each vehicle can have only
two transmitters
matched to it.
